RightHaven Saga Continues

The notorious "copyright trolls", Nevada-based, Righthaven now got hit with an order to execute/seize their assets (bank accounts, personal assets, etc.) in connection with a judgment to pay attorneys fees in an underlying copyright infringement claim in which Righthaven was found to have lacked standing. (Ninth Circuit law holds there is a prohibition against  a "naked assignment of a right to to sue under copyright" ; but that is precisely what Righthaven did and deceived the Court as well with false statements.)
