After opening statements, plaintiffs will put on their first three witnesses: Sony attorney Wade Leak (who famously testified at the Thomas-Rasset trial that an award of $150,000 in statutory damages per work was "absolutely" appropriate), Chris Connelly of MediaSentry, and Mark Matteo of Cox Communications, Tenenbaum's ISP.

Tenenbaum trial: day two preview
The Joel Tenenbaum opens today at 9am with opening statements. Plaintiffs asked for 20-30 minutes, defense counsel Charles Nesson for 40. Nesson's presentation promises to be unusual; yesterday he gave a preview of the demonstratives he plans to display to the jury, which include a Styrofoam box that he will use "to show the difference between atoms and bits, which is central to our case," as well as a poster of a "Necker Cube," whose relevance to this case remains a mystery.

Comments here are moderated. I appreciate substantive comments, whether or not they agree with what I've written. Stay on topic, and be civil. Comments that contain name-calling, personal attacks, or the like will be rejected. If you want to rant about how evil the RIAA and MPAA are, and how entertainment companies' employees and attorneys are bad people, there are plenty of other places for you to go.
