Judge sets date for DOJ vs Apple et al

Apple asked for a speedy trial so Judge Cote set the date for June 3, 2013.

And the DOJ along with all 50 states expect to settle with the three publishers by August 10th and then submit it to the Judge.

The defendants opted non-jury. I guess they are looking to focus more on legal issues in their defense.

From Bloomberg:

Quote:
Several parties, Apple and DOJ are pushing for a fast trial as fast as can be accomplished that is consistent with justice,” Cote said yesterday as she set the nonjury trial with Apple and other defendants that haven’t settled.
I guess both sides are confident. They both are looking for a quick result.

June 3, 2013? Oh for gods sake. This is going to take forever. Any word on when the settlement is going to be reviewed?

WTF???? This judge clearly does not understand the technological revolution. This is not steampunk...

I thought the same thing when I read the words "speedy trial" and the set date.

Apple wanted the speedy trial. Sometime this year. But the DOJ said they needed more time and they got it from Judge Cote.

Also, the settling publishers submitted a request to be a "non party" to the lawsuit which means they don't have to provide evidence during the discovery phase or otherwise offer documents/facts to help either Apple or the DOJ. Naturally, the DOJ is angered by this and disagrees saying it's not part of the initial settlement agreement.
