Great, that's one, and it's the system working for a change.

It was Mr. Ellison though, and perhaps authors of his standing have more of
an interest in pursuing such a case and more resources to do so. Personally
I think it should have been a criminal case brought by a prosecutor, based
on the author's complaint, and a police investigation (FBI?).

Luck;
