Capitol Records Motion To Enjoin ReDigi Denied

Posted by Soulskill on from the nice-work-mr-beckerman dept.

NewYorkCountryLawyer writes "The motion by Capitol Records for a preliminary injunction against used digital music marketplace ReDigi has been denied. After hearing almost two hours of oral argument by attorneys for both sides, Judge Richard J. Sullivan ruled from the bench (PDF), holding that plaintiff had failed to show 'irreparable harm.'"

    These greedy scum cannot get enough and know no bounds. At least some sanity is left in the legal system as this ruling shows.

    Most ACs are not even worth the keystrokes to insult them. Be generically insulted by this and ignored otherwise.

      They'll just take it as a crap judge or needing a better lawyer. I don't think they'll go away with any sort of sanity.

    So how come MegaUpload didn't get the same kind of hearing? At the very least there should have been an opportunity for them to contest the shut down of their company in a US court before New Zealand was ordered to send in the elite anti-terror police unit.
