I trust the courts mostly (especially in well trod areas of law), so I assume that if they find for one party and reward large damages that the suit was legitimate. Before the ruling, or if the ruling was reversed, I don't know whether the suit is legitimate or not. The ruling doesn't change its ethical status, it changes my knowledge of its ethical status.

You completely ignored the first part of my comment.

It's convenient, too, that a ruling against the people you disagree with is considered just, but you'll withhold judgment if it's overturned.

I don't think I've given any indication of who I disagree with.
Ignored it again, and don't be coy, come out and state your opinion.
