I just looked at the docket sheet for the appeal and it appears as though it has been fully briefed by JPM and WMI. I think we should have a decision denying JPM's appeal very soon -- I expect to see it before the hearing on the 24th -- which further supports the notion of settlement within the next few weeks.
I can't get the doc page to work, its blocked by my firewall. Can someone else host it or send it to myinvesco@gmail.com so i can read the thing Please ~Fish~
This was posted by govinsider on Y!, are you thinking the same thing GN? Possibly that this issue has already been decided? I think this is worth looking into because this is one of JPM's last options for delay.
govinsider:
Was the letter signed today (posted by ghost) a follow-up to a hearing already held with Judge Sleet to help their cause?
