All subpoenas quashed in Discount Video Center v Does 1-29

In a Massachusetts case, Discount Video Center v. Does 1-29, the Court quashed all subpoenas served, since the plaintiff had misleadingly represented that it had sued all of the 29 ISP subscribers, when in fact it could only have sued the unknown copyright infringers, not the subscribers.

  1. Note that several "cousin" cases in the Massachusetts District have similarly quashed and are awaiting new motions for discovery, citing Discount Video Center. Discount has apparently become the lead reverse class action here in MAD.
