Ninth Circuit Copyright Law Candidate Double Standards
Software pirate awarded by US judges. Sun Microsystems had distributed vast number of pirated copies of Dr. Yue's software. Evidence included defendants' sales records and internal emails admitting the wrongdoing. The judges ignored the evidence and ruled in Sun's favor. The judge made a stern warning: "Mr. Yue, I am going to have you taken out if you don't be quiet" (quoting transcript). The court then ordered Dr. Yue to pay $219949.90 to Sun.
