A total win until appealed to the next court, that is. But the judges' statement is welcome, and helpful precedent.

From the original article, the "next court" seems to be the Supreme Court.

There is one other possible step. There is the option of appealing for a re-hearing at this level, but with ALL the judges at this level being involved, not just three.

unlikely when the three give such a clear ruling, but a possiblity.
