We were puzzled too. It looks like in UK, no matter how wrong you are, if the other party doesn't show up for the trial, you may win.
Is it not a guaranteed win I thought it was?
If you don't turn up or ask for representation from another party then why do you expect to win (I'd assume cobra might've been eligible for legal aid too to have a solicitor sit on the case - probably at no expense to cobra).
Satoshi holds the rights to the whitepaper, always has. It's possible in most places to withdraw articles from the public domain afaik but I doubt they'll give up on their anonymity over a whitepaper.
