Warner Music sues paralyzed stroke victim: "Cory Doctorow:
Warner Music is suing a retired railroad man in Florida whose left side has been paralyzed by a stroke and whose sole source of income is his disability check.
Although the defendant John Paladuk, an employee of C&N Railroad for 36 years, was living in Florida at the time of the alleged copyright suit, and had notified the RIAA that he had not engaged in any copyright infringement, and despite that the fact that Mr. Paladuk suffered a stroke last year which resulted in complete paralysis of his entire left side and severely impaired speech, rendering him disabled, and despite the fact that his disability check is his sole source of income, the RIAA commenced suit against him on February 27, 2007.
