Will RIAA lose the lawsuit with Andersen?

The Recording Industry Association of America (or RIAA) is a trade group that represents the recording industry in the United States. The RIAA has supported and still supports several pieces of legislation in the United States which it believes help it to prevent copyright infringement.

Andersen is a single mother living in Oregon who was sued by the record labels in February 2005. She eventually filed a counterclaim against the RIAA, and when the labels voluntarily dismissed their case against her last June, she filed a malicious-prosecution lawsuit. In it, Andersen accuses the RIAA of fraud, racketeering, invasion of privacy, libel, slander, deceptive business practices, and violations of the Oregon state RICO Act.

    According to the federal magistrate judge overseeing the case of Tanya Andersen, Oregon's famous disabled single mother-turned anti-RIAA crusader, about 470.8 hours from her attorneys alone.

    Fortunately for Andersen's financial future, judge John Acosta has ruled that the RIAA will pick up the tab for its unsuccessful lawsuit against her. All totaled, Andersen's counsel have been ordered to receive $107,833 (£55,395) for their work.

    Someone or something is pushing Andersen on, that much has been clear for a long time.

    RIAA will pay big bucks for not leaking out details of the RIAA's activities.

    it's another copyright lawsuit (similar to P2P) against the giants corporations offending privacy. as the article said: soon afterwards, discovery will begin, and all sorts of unsavory details about the RIAA's legal campaign against suspected file-sharers are likely to emerge.
