NewYorkCountryLawyer's Journal: RIAA Drops Oklahoma Case 1 Day After Being Countersued!

In Warner v. Stubbs, in Oklahoma, the defendant filed her answer and counterclaim against the RIAA on August 23, 2006 . In it she likened the RIAA's tactics to "extortion".

The very next day, on August 24, 2006 , the RIAA turned around and asked the Judge for permission to withdraw its case :

Ms. Stubbs is represented by Marilyn Barringer-Thomson, of Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, the same lawyer who represents Deborah Foster in Capitol v. Foster, the case in which the judge held that the RIAA may be liable for the defendant's attorneys fees.

I guess the RIAA doesn't want to tangle with Ms. Barringer-Thomson anymore.
