The judgement on bail seems well within reason
Agreed, regardless of the strength of the extradition case.

the part with actual evidence for these assertions
I haven't read it, but does the judgement list actual evidence for any of the assertions about copyright infringement?

Marryatt may yet refuse $68,000 rise
A good PR person would advise him to shut up and stop digging.
Asked whether the position was a reversal of his previous stance, Marryatt said that "nothing has changed".
"What I said to [The Press] still stands unless I change my mind, and I could change my mind," he said. "To say it's a possibility is one step too far, but I am always considering my position, and I am interested in the outcome of Friday's meeting."
It depends what the meaning of is is..
Marryatt's comments came as the council confirmed it would release information provided to councillors before the vote on his pay rise. After the salary increase was announced, Mayor Bob Parker said the council had sought "external professional help" to determine the appropriate salary for Marryatt's position.
Yesterday, Parker said the information would be released to the public "as soon as possible" so they could see how the pay rise had been set.
"We are going to put all this stuff out to people and let them have a chance to read through it so they can understand the rationale for [the increase]," he said.
The documents would include the external salary advice and could include Marryatt's performance review, depending on whether issues over confidential comments included in the document could be resolved.
"We want to show as much of the process as is possible. We want to put it all out there," Parker said.
Marryatt said the information would be released to the media tomorrow.
What's the bet that's at the end of the day after the visit by the Local Government Minister whose opinion Marryatt is suddenly concerned about? Great citizen activism, Christchurch.
