i wish i didnt have first hand experience on how irrational judges/courts can be. it is all a crapshoot once you get inside the court.

best case for HJOE is the judge has some background with toxic lending and understands the destructive nature for unsuspecting companies. if so - pretty logical conclusion that KBM was not "damaged" and in fact made a very solid return despite their attempts to kneecap their client.

i just dont see how any jury would be sympathetic to KBM in this case or feel they were materially damaged by HJOE in the process based on their total return regardless of the contract terms that they are claiming were breached. further, if just one of those jurors have been hassled by a debt collector when they were the ones hosed to begin with (say by a cellular company beginning with say a S and ending with say a T) than they certainly arent going to be sympathetic.
