<description>&#60;img align='left' src='http://photos.macnn.com/news/1008/joojoo.jpg' border='0' width='176' height='120' /><![CDATA[Fusion Garage today scored a partial but possibly ineffective win in its legal dispute with TechCrunch after a judge ruled out certain requests from the tech site in the lawsuit.
