I find this particular issue (early open access) interesting and important, and apparently a lot of other people do too. I wasn’t at the initial evidentiary Hearing on Monday, but I understand there was a large contingent of observers. The Pre-Trial, if you recall, was packed.
Today’s previously scheduled Hearing was deferred till tomorrow afternoon. It’s my understanding (and that’s all it is, so take it for what it’s worth) that first on the agenda tomorrow will be the ERC’s ruling on what issues are to be addressed (and determined) in the Hearing process.
Second, I understand that the ERC will rule on the Legal issues (see prior post).
Presuming the ERC finds that it does have jurisdiction and is not preempted by EPIRA, then I expect the cross-examination of the primary petitioner, PIPPA, will continue from where they left off Monday. But I find it interesting that the petitioners have not entered any supporting direct testimony (evidence) into the record - only their initial pleading which included the proposed Terms of Reference.
I hope I can attend tomorrow to see how this starts to play out.
Health Update: On a hunch, my gastroenterologist has me on a gluten-free diet to see if I have an intolerance to it. Gluten in found in wheat, rye, and barley. Interestingly, I’ve had no problems since I’ve been off gluten. Bad news: beer is bad. But wine is fine. I can live with that.
