Re: Curious

Actually, it looks like they're just shopping around for a better judge to present the case before since they just refiled the same case against the same person in a different court ( »news.slashdot.org/article.pl?sid···/1156218 ).

Even for the RIAA, this is low. They saw that the case wasn't going their way so they dropped it and tried to start all over again without telling the new judge about the previous case. Either the RIAA's lawyers are: A) incompetent enough to forget to notify a judge about a prior (and still ongoing) case against the same person with the same charges or B) malicious enough to try to get a "do over" when a case doesn't go their way. In either case, some censure or disbarment charges should be in order as this is a serious abuse of the court system.
