Two United States Marshals raided a booth at the Consumer Electronics Show on Thursday afternoon, walking away with several one-wheeled electric scooters.
The company that makes the scooters, Changzhou First International Trade Co., was sued by an American company, Future Motion, on two claims of alleged patent infringement.
Changzhou hasn’t made any formal legal response, or yet had a chance to defend itself against the claims. Future Motion’s lawyers filed their motion in federal court in Las Vegas on Tuesday, and then had a hearing by telephone on Wednesday. After the hearing, which lasted just seven minutes, US District Judge Miranda Du issued an order that Changzhou’s products be seized and that it stop sales.

Yes it’s really happening!
Do not mess with the Queen of Dragons. (credit: HBO)
You know that feeling when you fly on the back of a wild dragon who has rescued you from an angry mob, and then it lands in a remote area full of another angry mob, but you still feel badass because of the aforementioned dragon and your uncanny ability to walk through fire unscathed? Well, that's how we feel right now, because there's an official air date for the premiere episode of Game of Thrones' sixth season.
Prepare to glue your face to the monitor of your choice on April 24, when HBO kicks off a season that promises to be pretty intense. First of all, Bran is back—so you can expect some serious magic and warging. Then there is the dragon situation I've already discussed. Plus Arya is still in assassin high school, there is family drama in King's Landing, and Brienne of Tarth is definitely going to cut somebody with her sword soon. Oh yeah, plus winter is seriously coming for real now, and Jon Snow is playing Schrödinger's cat until we find out for sure whether he's dead or alive.
With season six, we'll also leave the George R.R. Martin books behind. Martin is still finishing up The Winds of Winter, though it's set to publish this year. That's right—the book this season is based on hasn't actually come out yet. The author has been sharing his plans with the producers of Game of Thrones, so there will be some crossover. But for now at least, your friends who have read the books can't threaten you with spoilers.
