They may be able to buy a judge…but if it goes to a jury trial, they could be in trouble!

The sad part is that the **AA are very practised at buying ignorant judges when it suits their purpose. Decisions that say theft of e-mail ( http://www.p2pnet.net/story/13175 ) is an inconsequential detail show me how it works. Buckets of money is all that counts. Unfortunately, they will just buy this judge too. These travesties of justice will continue for quite some time.

“Even though this type of judgement is unconstitutional, it is a ruling of a court nevertheless.”

If a judgement is uncosntitutional it is null and the victim of the judgement need to get redress.

Also there is penalties under the law against however under the cover of autority persecute a Us citizen or any inhabitant of the united state and dependancy while in the exercice of his/her constitutuional right. (This of course apply to the RIAA and the four rog corporation they uniquely represent) These penalty can go up to life in prison without the possibility of parol.

********************
Settlement could also lead to less aggressive legal tactics in pursuit of online pirates, observes Variety, failing to point out that not one of the ‘online pirates’ has yet appeared in court or been found guilty of anything by a judge or a jury in a civil court.

Actually this is not true. The Howell’s have been “found guilty” in kangaroo court fashion via a “summary judgement.”
Please see story http://www.p2pnet.net/story/13179 . Even though this type of judgement is unconstitutional, it is a ruling of a court nevertheless. Hopefully, this ruling will be appealed and struck down. Juries have the right to issue verdicts in matters of common law exceeding $20 – not judges, unless the Howells waived their RIGHT to a jury trial.

This one is one they will do everything they can to stop. If they can’t stop it, the moment it looks as if the tables will turn, they will settle it in a hearbeat rather than see it go to it’s conclusion.

It’s conclusion could end in the major labels losing their copyrights because of misuse of enforcements. Since that is their primary income maker, it will be most interesting to see the twists and turns put up for defense against this charge. This goes right to the core of the situtation though.

It is indeed collusion of the major players as they have all agreed to give the RIAA the enforcement powers to act in each one of the big 4’s interests. No other business I know is allowed this sort of freedom to conspire and that is exactly what the actions of the RIAA is. A knowing conspiracy against the public for the benefit of all the major labels and nothing else.

”We are confident that (Andersen’s) class action claims have no merit,” Didn’t ENRON and other class action defendants also say that? Isn’t that a standard legal boilerplate reply?

They want to be fair and reasonable with their lawsuits?

Wonder when they will start…
