pornguy, I think you are missing the bigger point here.
If an item is thought to be illegal, it can be seized and held pending judgement. The judge did not tell Chris to shut off his site or to stop his business, just to remove PENDING JUDGEMENT articles which are subject of the obscenity charges.
If you shoot someone, your weapon will be seized and held pending judgement.
if you run someone over while driving your car, it will be seized and often held pending judgement.
Drug dealer is arrested for selling drugs. The drugs are seized and held pending judgement (hey, they could be just sugar!).
Chris should have considered himself lucky that the original arrest didn't include seizure of his computers, servers, and potentially even the domain name (all used in the alledge crime of distribution of obscenity). That would have all been well within the powers of the courts to do PENDING JUDGEMENT.
He should also consider himself lucky that the courts didn't order that his business be seized and an administrator appointed by the court of oversee it.
He made his choices... they didn't just raid him and lock him up. He got out, and pissed the legal system off. They have ways of dealing with wise asses.
