You win a lawsuit when the court awards you the relief requested.

Lawsuits are brought in an attempt to compel another party
to comply with your wishes. The externally visible results
of a compliance action is compliance. In each case brought
by the SFLC, the defendants chose to comply with the GPL.

When the other party acquiesces to your demands, you have
won. Courts award relief only if the case makes it to the
end of a trial. The SFLC's cases are so strong that none
of the defendants choose to do that.
