The Governing Body's Reply to Hines' Opposition to their Motion to Dismiss appears to address the various elements in the Opposition including case law cited by Hines. It's now up to the judge to determine which party will prevail. The judge has up to 60 days to make such determination but it has been stipulated that the return date for the parties to return to court is tomorrow, April 13th. The Court may continue (delay) this date. I'm not sure what form this hearing will take, whether oral argument will be allowed or not, whether the judge will have made a decision, etc. If the motion to dismiss is granted, the GB wins, pending any further action by Hines. If the motion is denied, in whole or in part, the case can proceed. This is a broad picture. The actual outcome remains to be seen.

I for one will be very interested to hear the result of this skirmish. I think the argument raised against WT was compelling. So am in your hands.
