As I mentioned, G.Loomis sued us again.

Yesterday Gary and I made the journey to the Federal Courthouse in Tacoma. As with most Federal Courthouses, the Tacoma building is a beautiful place. It is the remodeled Union Train Station. It’s full of Dale Chihuly glass. He’s a famous guy with an eye patch. The patch is pretty cool.

G.Loomis had dragged us to court for a temporary restraining order. A TRO is used to get someone to stop doing something. Rather than go through the arguments, I’ll just say that we are pleased to share that the Hon. Benjamin Settle denied what G.Loomis wanted yesterday.

While I’d like to say that this will allow me to get back to work on making blanks, this is just Round I. We line up again on August 10th for Round II and there will be a Round III sometime later this year.

I keep trying to leave law practice, but the only way for us to afford the legal fees is for me to be a lawyer for a little while longer. Please don’t hold it against me and rest assured that my heart remains here:

and nothing will stop us from providing you the best blanks in the world.
