The RIAA has a habit of citing our blog to judges, so please keep comments dignified and worthy of the important issues we are discussing, in keeping with our comment policies. If you see a violation of the policies, please let me know by email. You can post anonymously, but must sign off by giving us something to call you. Conversations among several people called "Anonymous" get too confusing. Thanks. Best regards. -Ray
Is this something that happens regularly in cases and why would such action be taken?
ReplyDeleteIs it to protect jurors and potential jurors from future RIAA investigations?
