Surprisingly, NO DEFAULT SANCTIONS for Craig Wright in the Kleiman v Wright case. Trial by jury it is.
Wonder if they will again attempt to settle before the trial. They tried once in September of last year but that fell through. The trial was originally scheduled for March 30th, then again for this month, so I hope they don't push it back too much further. But you know, covid is also a pretty good excuse not to have to do anything.
I'm 99.9999% and a few more 9's percent certain that this case will eventually go to trial ...

https://www.metzdowd.com/pipermail/cryptography/2009-January/thread.htmlRemembering that Dave was effectively housebound in his wheelchair and he was a digital forensic investigator, therefore he most certainly downloaded and ran the bitcoin software. Maybe he mined some, maybe he did not, who knows?
Perhaps he told Craig Wright about it at the time, perhaps he did not ... presumable Craig's response at the time might of been something to the effect of
"Cypherpunk BS, won't go anywhere", again, who knows?
The rest is history, as they say ...
