Merl Ledford, the lawyer for Barry and Cathy Merchant decided to respond to the RIAA’s (extortion) letter demanding money for alleged music downloads. Among issues raised were filing at the incorrect venue, emotional distress, lawyers not licensed for practicing law, attorneys who file litigation without probable cause are personally liable and much more.
Essentially - the RIAA got smacked pretty hard by someone who knows better. Read the letter from Recording Industry vs People here.
