From the Inquirer:

RIAA lawyers narrowly avoided a court sanction in a case where they sued a homeless man.

In Warner v. Berry, the RIAA sued a man who was then staying in a homeless shelter. Apparently undeterred in the least by the defendant's impecunious circumstances, big music's legal furies unleashed a minion to track the man down and serve him with a summons and complaint. The sequence of events that ensued went thusly:

On April 9, 2007, the mafiaa's process server posted a copy of the summons and complaint on the door of the defendant's former apartment, even though the plaintiffs knew that it was not his then current address.
