More Great PR for the RIAA

From Ray Beckerman:

RIAA Wants to Depose Dead Defendant’s Children; But Will Allow them 60 Days to “Grieve”

Just when we think we’ve heard it all….

In Michigan, in Warner Bros. v. Scantlebury, after learning that the defendant had passed away, the RIAA made a motion to stay the case for 60 days in order to allow the family time to “grieve”, after which time they want to start taking depositions of the late Mr. Scantlebury’s children…

By the way the lawyer who signed the motion is the same lawyer who was representing the RIAA in Motown v. Nelson, in which a 15-year old girl testified that Mr. Krichbaum tried to put words in her mouth at her first deposition.

We just don’t get the RIAA’s strategy and never have. Too many lawyers and not enough marketers are involved, if you ask us.
