Grey Ghost Rising?

Mr. Dingler had his day in court today. According to 50smod in the comments of this article the Grey Ghost prevailed. I can't wait to hear the details on this one.

UPDATE: I'm a little confused. Humid City and Leo (of the Antigravity variety) on livejournal state that NOLA Rising prevailed. I interpretted the NOLA Rising blog as a predictor of how his day would go in court. What is going on? 50smod also created a post in the nola.com forums.

UPDATE 2: 50smod says: I apologize if my info was wrong concerning the lawsuit. I was told by, by the owner of the gallery where the painting parties are held, that Radtke had won the lawsuit, and Michael Dingler had gotten away with oly a 200.00 fine, and that is why Radtke had stormed out. If I was wrong, I apologize, and it is a great day in the art world of New Orleans. I do hope i was wrong.

UPDATE 3: Man escapes $50,000 in fines for posting signs in N.O. - but he still has to pay $200 and is on probation for 60 days. So I'd say that is greater than a loss. Fuck you Radtke! Congrats, Dingler!

Talked to Michael earlier, he did indeed get off with only a $200 fine and 6 months, you are spot on there.

He should have details up on http://nolarising.blogspot.com by tomorrow from what he said.

Wow, municipal court doing something right. Nice to hear something positive about our legal system for a change!
