With that adjective it sounds as though you didn't think much respect was due to begin with!

In any event, the summary is very clear that this was a motion to dismiss, not a trial judgment. So your critique is likely to mislead.

And yes, the court left open the option for plaintiff to replead. But I would suggest that does not do much to mitigate the extent to which the court's reasoning here as to how the agreement could limit a claim of copyright is questionable.

But thanks for your comments. I just did not feel that your word choice reflected well on our profession. Let's try to be friends anyway!
