Our own Robert Krausankas broke the story on copyright-trolls.com around Thanksgiving holidays about WebGrocer filing suit against Adlife Marketing for a declaratory judgment against their $8K letters over food photos against WebGrocer's clients.
I have not done an in-depth reading of the case but Robert has written a series of announcements, updates, and a preliminary analysis.

One can only assume Adlife Marketing CEO Joel Albrizio will have a bad week as he probably needs to spend some lawyer money to respond to this lawsuit.
Generally speaking, it costs very little except some paper, toner, envelope, and postage, for scummy guys like Joel to send their extortion letters out. However, it appears this time around, Joel might have to spend some money for being unreasonable to WebGrocer.
WebGrocer clearly is not taking this sitting down and letting a legal cloud hang over them. They decided to go on the offense and take the case to Joel Albrizio's company.
