From CNet: “The motion picture industry’s effort to ban computer code that subverts its DVD encryption scheme has suffered a setback in
California, with the state’s high court issuing an order that could see many of the defendants dropped from the closely watched
case.

The California Supreme Court on Thursday effectively ordered a lower court to show why defendant Matthew Pavlovich should remain in
the case even though he is not a California resident.”
