Megaspammer Monsterhut Loses On Appeal

Posted by Hemos on Saturday May 4, 2002 @02:40PM from the victory dept.

Werehatrack writes "Much jubilation was expressed in news.admin.net-abuse.email when it was learned that the long-running court battle between PaeTec and Monsterhut had reached a definitive conclusion on Friday with a New York appeals court finding in favor of PaeTec which finally allowed PaeTec to pull the plug on their least-loved customer's connectivity. PaeTec was actually somewhat restrained in its news announcement on its own website, simply noting that they had won and that they had disconnected Monsterhut."

You'd think that the lawyer's inability to spell Delaware in the initial filing (found burried on PaeTec's website) would have been an indication of the merits of the case. It was apparently more than just a typo -- it's spelled that way in points 1 and 2. I mean really, if you're going to be writing legal documents you can at least run a spell check first.
