The blog is on break for a couple more days for legal pursuits, but in the spirit of thinking about the law, here is my Facebook v. ConnectU prediction (keep in mind this is only to see whether to trial will go forward). I know very little about the suit, but it is difficult to get a suit dismissed. If ConnectU has any evidence to support it's claim, the case will not be dismissed. My guess is they have something, even if it is not enough to win a jury trial. People who do not follow the law may find that strange. What if, for example, ConnectU just had a little bit of evidence for their position and even that evidence was of limited value? Would not matter. Any evidence at all should be enough. The reason is simple, in America we let juries decide questions of fact (or judges when they are the fact finder which is not the case for tomorrow's decision). In other words it is hard to make a law suit go away, even one that seems to be almost completely meritless.

Let the record show, I predict no dismissal. We will see what happiness, and see what kind of legal outcome bookmaking skills I posses.
