Summary judgment was proper because on the evidence there was no real prospect of the defendants defeating liability: the Game Boy products were issued in a copy-protected form within s.273, the defendants' Flash products were specifically designed and predominantly used to circumvent that protection, the corporate defendants had no viable defence, the personal defendants were personally liable as active, knowing participants and profited from the infringement, and an interim payment of $5,000,000 was a reasonable conservative minimum of likely recoverable damages.
