Re: Bout time! SICK EM BOYS! I don't have to choose a side and neither does the RIAA. They can choose who they want to pursue based on whatever internal criteria they have. There's no obligation that they pursue everyone. |

Maineville, OH | Can they prove that any transfer actually occurred to anyone but themselves? It just seems to me that they are making a lot of assumptions about what could have possibly happened...

1 edit | You make a good point.
It'll be during discovery where they'll try to get some detailed evidence. But, they have at least something that they feel was good enough to get them into court. I suppose the judge could toss the case it if he feels that the RIAA is bringing a frivolous lawsuit forward. But, I doubt that happens.
I will say, though, that I strongly doubt that this is the kind of fight the RIAA was looking for when it filed the original lawsuit. I would imagine the RIAA is scrambling to figure out how to bail out of this. Losing this lawsuit probably doesn't fit very well into the RIAA's business plan for the future. |

Losing this lawsuit probably doesn't fit very well into the RIAA's business plan for the future. They'll probably either settle (terms too good for Joel to pass up under non disclosure) or find some reason to drop this lawsuit, then Charles R. Nesson will have to find another client. |
