The Supreme Court denied a motion from FilmOn...

The Supreme Court denied a motion from FilmOn to let it intervene in the court’s proceeding on its competitor Aereo, said court documents. FilmOn CEO Alki David had told us he wanted to have its case heard alongside Aereo’s because the court’s decision is likely to affect FilmOn’s business as well as Aereo, even though FilmOn has a different position on copyright. Justice Samuel Alito “took no part in the consideration or decision of this motion,” said the court order. Alito similarly recused himself from the decision to grant cert to Aereo. The court’s decision not to allow FilmOn to intervene “doesn’t hurt us at all!” David said in an email. “We wish Aereo well.” FilmOn will file an amicus brief in the Aereo case, he said.
