Seems like there is the potential for a litigious recursive loop scenario here in the event that posting a cease-and-desist letter results in a new cease-and-desist letter and that could well upset the delicate balance of life as we know it.
The group Public Citizen hit back against this law firm’s claims, but surprisingly, a judge has now agreed that you can copyright cease-and-desist letters (thanks to Eric Goldman for emailing over the link). The news was announced in a press release by the lawyer in question, who claims this means he can now sue anytime someone posts one of his cease-and-desist letters.
