Double Tap - A Great Weapon Agaist Trolls
« on: November 04, 2012, 08:06:53 PM »
I found this over on www.dietrolldie.com and thought this was an excellent article. This is a tactic I have not seen used before in fighting the P2P porn trolls called Double Tap. There is a lot of information in the article and you will need to read it to get it all but the key point of it is that if the defendant is out of state from where the plaintiff is he can file a motion requiring that the plaintiff post a bond covering reasonable attorney fees and associated costs should the plaintiff lose making the troll cough up money up front on what is generally a very shaky and thin case to begin with. I love it! I hope to see more defendants in the P2P cases start to use this tactic. The entire article may be read here:

Great research!!
This is something that might have been of use to Righthaven defendants.

Here is the latest for anyone following this case, Prenda is asking the judge to review/reconsider the decision requiring Prenda to place a 48,000 bond for the trial to proceed or face dismissal.  The story may be found here:
