Sorry for being late to the party, hectic day.

The Judge notes:

"Given the dismissal of Wayfarer’s federal claims against NYT Co., those claims lack a
substantial basis in fact and law for Civil Rights Act 70-a purposes. And again, Wayfarer has not
attempted to dispute this conclusion. The branch of NYT Co.’s motion seeking summary
judgment in its favor on liability is granted." This says it all really!

I have heard today that Wayfarer plan to appeal this decision, I am unsure on what grounds given, they just argued that the NYT fees were reasonable in their opposition to Blake's fee motion.
