<nettime> Stockholm, ruling Scientology vs Panoussis


We just received ruling of the Stockholm court of appeals,
Svea Hovr�tt, Stockholm, in the case of Scientology vs
Panoussis.

Against all our expectations, Zenon has lost on all counts.
PLus, he needs to pay another NLG 100,000 / USD 40,000 for
lawyer's fees.

There is a minority opinion from one of the judges; she
regards the OTs to have been legally published. But of
course, a minority opinion won't help him right now. Zenon
has already appealed to the Supreme Court.



Reports of the Jan. 2001 hearings in Scientology vs Panoussis

Comparing Scientology to a motorcycle gang is a gross, 
unpardonable insult to bikers everywhere. Even at our 
worst, we are never as bad as Scientology.
