Another dismissal in Virginia, Judges considers Rule 11 Sanctions

In my previous post, I posted a decision in the Hard Drive Productions v Does where Judge dismissed the action for improper joinder. Another case was also dismisse din Virginia, Raw Films, Ltd. v. Does 1-32.

Judge John A. Gibney not only dismissed the case and it "swarm theory". The court ordered plaintiff to show cause why his conduct did not merit Rule 11 sanctions. The court suggested that it appeared that plaintiff was merely to obtain enough information to "shake down" defendants and get them to settle and had no intention of litigating the case.

I just got a copy of the case. See the decision below.
