There was another Order in Ford v. 2600, also signed on 20 Dec., 2001.
That one is NOT on the Website. (John Young, if Cryptome wants a copy, i'll
need to find a way to scan it).
Bottom line: Rule 12(b)(2) and Rule 12(b)(6) motions have been GRANTED.
Whole case is kicked out of court.
See the PACER report at the end of the email (Dkt. #23, which only reflects
HALF of the ruling that was issued). Evidently -- see also the mis-date on
Dkt #9 -- the clerk's office doesn't alway catch all the details.
