After over four years of litigation, a 25-day trial spanning over three months, and more alcohol imbibed by the defendants than was strictly speaking healthy, the trial between Testmasters and Blueprint is done. Finito. Gone like Donkey Kong.

On June 15, 2009, Judge William Highberger entered the statement of decision and DENIED the permanent injunction sought by Testmasters against Blueprint and UPHELD the jury's verdict.

For those of you who just want a few choice morsels, Judge Highberger writes:

"The public would also suffer from the loss of a company such as Blueprint, which has provided significant originality to the LSAT teaching business."

"Defendants side-by-side analysis illustrates the originality for the Blueprint course in several areas."

"The jury verdict, which binds this court, demonstrates that it did not find the Blueprint course materials to be derived from Testmaster's materials."
