Amazing how thins change.
"And you can be sure, they will be insisting on adequate compensation for the year of inactivity.
"
So far, DPBE has insisted on NOTHING. they did not do ANYTHING about the fact that their artifacts were being held by the government instead of divided, they did not complain loudly when the "other firm" DID get a division and DPBE did NOT (Throws a hole in your "if the other firm wins, we will get ours TOO) theory), they were NOT interested in suing the government to FORCE the issue (And everyone here was griping about the suit, Now the posts seem to think it is a great thing) to get their artifacts, they have NOT joined in on the suit even as a third party with material interest in it, they have NOT helped with the suit in any way, and if the other company wins the suit, they WILL get their division, but you are correct in saying it sets PRECEDENT, which does NOT mean DPB will get theirs too. And as for adequate compensation? I doubt ANY company gets ANYTHING other than their division, and MAYBE the right to dive again. And if this bozo APPEALS the verdict (assuming the other company wins, and we all think they will, but who knows down there) then it might STILL be a few more YEARS before Billy hits the water again.
I'm not trying to be negative or spout things that DPBE is no good, blah, blah, blah. Just stating some truth in that DPBE has done nothing, is not forcing the issue now, and I don't agree that DPBE will be getting compensation for the lost opportunity or time they were out of the water. And if they don't get some money and either JOIN the suit or file their own, they may or MAY NOT get a division if the other company wins.
It would be nice if we had a COMPANY to FIGHT the DR. As it is, we are not a legal company any more in the USA, we have no CEO or senior officer, we have no representative to legally be contacted in a lawsuit, we have not filed required papers to remain in business as a legal entity, much less a publically traded one, we have ignored material facts that have not been divulged to the public, I violation of SEC regulations (Mostly Reg FD) and I just don't know if we have the ABILITY to come back from this OR push the issue with the DR. I supposed London is our only hope right now, and if they fund a suit to get the artifacts maybe we eventually win, but I'm not optimistic about the court case working in DPBE's favor OR getting just compensation. Sorry.
