Megaupload Seizure Order “Null and Void” Says High Court
Quote:
In another astonishing development in the Megaupload saga, a judge in New Zealand’s High Court has declared the order used to seize Kim Dotcom’s assets as “null and void”. The blunder, which occurred because the police applied for the wrong type of court order, means that the Megaupload founder could have his property returned.
Just when it seemed that the handling of the Megaupload case couldn’t get any more controversial, a development from New Zealand has taken things to the next level.

The Crown is arguing that since the new order was granted the earlier error no longer matters, but Dotcom’s legal team framed it rather differently by describing the seizure of assets as “unlawful”.
Whether the assets are returned will rest on Dotcom’s legal team showing a lack of “good faith” in connection with the blunder. A hearing to decide if the assets will be returned will take place next week.

Anyway he's done for as the Yanks will just end up using the terrorist law to get him extradited if they need to and New Zealand will just role over and let them do it just like we do.

Even if they try and use the terrorist law, it doesn't make sense, they cant get away with that, i think NZ has been playing it pretty cool up until now though.
