No chance in Hell will that happen.  Before that impossible solution would occure, the courts throw it back to WA State courts.  WA State would then sell off the IP to pay existing creditors to settle all AI WA's debts.  


The problem is that AI WA doesn't exist any more. You can't sell off items to pay debts for a company that no longer exists. If they are right that KMOS never legitimately obtained ownership of the trademarks then AI Delaware can't use those trademarks.

The interesting question is, who would own the trademarks then? Hyperion won't; they have a license to USE the trademarks for Amiga OS4. AI Washington no longer exist. Would the ownership fall back to Gateway?

EDIT: Maybe it could be used to pay AI Washington's creditors, seeing as they were originally not used for that purpose because they had supposedly been sold to Itec and then KMOS.
