The Rise and Fall of a Spam Plaintiff
I've blogged a bunch about cases brought by Asis Internet:
Recently, Asis won a big judgment, but in a separate case was hit with a big ruling for fees: "CAN-SPAM Plaintiff Slammed With $800K Attorney Fee Award." Ultimately, this resulted in Asis abandoning its spam litigation efforts: "Veteran Spam Plaintiff Abandons Spam Lawsuit."
Ryan Burns of the North Coast Journal takes a look at the rise and fall of Asis: "Rise and Fall of a Spam Crusader." The article profiles the owner of Asis, as well as her lawyer, both of whom have apparently decided that they're done with spam litigation:
Laura Atkins offers her thoughts here: "Suing spammers."

Ryan's article is worth checking out.it’s past the time for arguments. White [the owner of Asis] left town this week to continue her studies of Vedanta and Sanskrit, but she’ll come back to her home in Garberville. Singleton’s law practice continues, though he says his days of prosecuting CAN-SPAM cases are over.
