Seems there is quite a snake pit involved when attempting to use boilerplate tactics, and bullying tactics at that, to litigate in 50 different states with 50 different sets of RICO, SLAAP, consumer protection, and other laws in place -- let alone not being licensed to practice law in all of the affected states.
