The underlying basis for the subpoena can be challenged but the subpoena itself cannot be ignored. OU had a chance to object and hasn't. <BR/><BR/>I don't think any of these subpoenas have been entirely quashed, so how do you figure that would expose the judge to punishment? I think that the bar for judicial censure is set pretty high with regards to interpreting the law. I doubt that any judge will get sanctioned for not setting a new precedent. <BR/><BR/>In the end, OU gave up the names but there delay has opened up an new can of worms which I am sure Ray will post.Reluctant Raconteurhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10156485722227445711noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15479871.post-53050041150135900282008-02-12T19:18:00.000-05:002008-02-12T19:18:00.000-05:00Ben: bingo.

If the President doesn't have to obey the law or respect the courts, why should anyone else? <BR/><BR/>"John Marshall has made his decision, now let him enforce it!" <BR/><BR/>I will find it deeply ironic if it is these RIAA lawsuits which force State public institutions to demand changes to Federal copyright law.

Especially since the RIAA is known to use any identity information they acquire to then file additional suits. In fact, it would be hugely remiss to reveal *any* information to the RIAA under any circumstances.<BR/><BR/>OF COURSE, IF THEY HADN'T JOINED ALL THESE UNRELATED DOE DEFENDANTS TOGETHER INTO A SINGLE CASE, THEY WOULDN'T BE HAVING THIS PROBLEM!<BR/><BR/>XK-EAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15479871.post-89020184568548726592008-02-12T15:38:00.000-05:002008-02-12T15:38:00.000-05:00Is a response called for?

Which begs the question, what would possess the judge to grant the subpoena to begin with? Doesn't that expose her to judicial action?tompoehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04202634297902748323noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15479871.post-34275752818043177152008-02-12T14:49:00.000-05:002008-02-12T14:49:00.000-05:00I still think that any member of the university ha...I still think that any member of the university has standing to file a motion to quash since an IP address doesn't identify a person but rather a computer.
