Simon says: yes to settlement, this time
Rase Kenzo (aka Thomas Simon) has pulled a 180, and accepted a settlement offered by Frank Taney, the lawyer representing six well-known Second Life content creators.
One of the conditions of the settlement is that everyone keeps quiet about the whole thing - however the terms of the settlement that have been presented to the court for approval are available.
Simon will hand over his Paypal and Second Life transaction records.
Simon swears that he only profited by $525 USD - and that he was the only person involved. He may be subject to perjury charges if either is not the case.
Simon is to pay up the $525 USD, and to keep the plaintiffs informed of any other Second Life accounts he creates or uses in future.
Simon declares that he has destroyed all unauthorized copies of the plaintiffs content that he still had.
Simon won't do it again, or assist others in doing so.
The order, if the court approves, should go through in the next several days or so.
Simon rejected a previous settlement offer, but seems to have thought better of his chances of fighting this case in court.
