The Third Doctrinal War -- Stardock, Reiche/Ford, and Star Control

Thanks @tomchick.

So to get this thread back on track, let’s switch gears for a moment.

From what I gathered, the case probably isn’t going to be decided before 2019. But on Reddit, I’ve read that both sides have filed for injunctions (correct me if I’m wrong), which the judge still has to rule on. Since Origins is slated for release on September 20th, that means we should learn soon whether or not an injunction is granted, right?

Am I correct in assuming that whether or not an injunction gets granted will be a litmus test as regards the legal standing of the case in general? In other words, if P&F can’t block Origins, does that mean that Stardock has a chance of winning this dispute, or at least that their hand will be strengthened by it? (I also read on Reddit that filing an injunction is actually quite expensive, so that P&F might not want to do this.)
