As Jim C posted LPE is just a shell company now. But the are a number of companies behind it .

The important thing to remember is it’s no longer a class registered builder . So unless it still has some WS plaques left, any boat you buy from them might be called a laser but you cannot use at any class event.

If you want to get a class legal boat you need to pop over to the PSA stand ( sailboats ) .

Precedent against Commercial judgment avoidance might have already been set see link.

I don't think you can just appeal a case (kick it down the road without new evidence) the jury were unanimous I believe.

In the meantime laser performance must  have definitely lost the trust of everyone who would risk supplying or buying from them? (Not me for sure)

I'd guess that they started the action before LPE was mothballed.

Surely the first check any legal firm would take prior to taking on a case like this is that the person they are suing is able to pay the courts award. This is especially true given that I believe that this was not Kirby paying for this action and legal companies themselves. If they have not done this then it was a pretty dim legal action to pursue as all legal action costs money before you stand any chance of getting any money back.

I believe the Laser chain is connected to a plug hole.
