With US Copyright Group (really DC law firm Dunlap, Grubb and Weaver) filing tens of thousands of lawsuits against individuals accused of file sharing certain movies, there's been something of a scramble for some of those accused to find legal help. While the EFF put together a list of lawyers interested in helping those accused, one of them, Graham Syfert, has realized that many of those accused really can't afford a lawyer for their defense, and so he's put together some worksheets to help those who wish to defend themselves, pro se, against USCG. Apparently, he was trying to charge $99 for the worksheets, but after TorrentFreak raised questions about the price, he's dropped it to $9.99. As Syfert told TorrentFreak:
"My dream would be to have 10,000-20,000 people file all three documents to the lawyers and severely cripple the entire process and show them that you shouldn't be allowed to join so many defendants."
That seems a bit unlikely but for those accused of sharing a movie, and without the means for full legal representation, at least there's some alternative.Permalink | Comments | Email This Story
