Summary
In the two years that followed the Second Circuit’s decision to remand the matter for further proceedings in the District Court, the defendants moved to strike the case. Ring successfully appealed the motion to strike and requested a trial by jury. The appeal succeeded in the Second Circuit,1 and the defendants had certiorari denied in the Supreme Court of the United States.2
