Regarding this present Loan default litigation, imo TPL is able to pay it back easily.

I believe likewise. What is a million or two these days? And DL or his company (ies) can borrow against some asset to pay back the loan. Or DL could even negotiate some sort of loan payment to pay off the loan. Or sell something? Like part of the MMP? Or some other patent in his stable. He could even go "back" to work as a lawyer and earn a few million winning a case for some client. Hey, maybe he could win a case for PTSC and make way more than a few million! That would be a better outcome of this current mess for all of us.
