There are pretty controversial trials that stay in the ''gathering evidence'' and ''nominating suspects'' phase for years and years. There's a case in my country, for example, that hasn't been solved after 12 years. They are still in the trial phase, and they can't come to a sentence.I'm from the Netherlands, living 20km's away from the German border, I know the laws systems are different. I also did 1 year European Law at University, so I also know that the German law system is really slow the way its designed (there's a reason for it though...), compared to other legal systems in the world.
If I recall correctly, this case is in Germany jurisprudence jurisdiction right? If that's so, the system they're using is not anything like the American system. Let me explain, the case won't be based on precedents, the case will gather evidence and will be sentenced according to the judge's criteria. An attorney can try to revoke the sentence, lessening the paycheck the OdinMS guys are gonna get. It's pretty obvious Nexon doesn't want just recognizement, they want a refund.
Again, the process can last for years, and the case folder will only grow and you can see no sentence whatsoever.
But a law system can be slow, an a proces make take several years, but what I'm surprised about is that the evidence gathering takes so long. They people from OdinMS have the right to see any form of evidence presented to them, where they are accused of by the other party, and normally that's bound to time limits... Now I don't know how long those limits are in Germany, but I hardly doubt it's more then 2 years...
