From my layman's point of view, I'd say malicious prosecution by subpoenas demanding information on people who are not not named or involved in the Marchese v Dobry lawsuit.

If Dobry is allowed to harass people, using a compliant lawyer who checks nothing his client tells him, then the system is failing to protect the privacy of citizens.

If a congenital liar such as Dobry is allowed to make insane accusations without any evidence, and the subpoena system is used as a bludgeon to obtain the identities of people on his "enemies list" then it is wrong and harmful.

In this case, there is written evidence of perjury by Dobry in an affidavit, and sanctions were called for under Rule 11 of Dobry's attorney, Richter. Although these were denied, it is clear that Richter has accepted what Dobry tells him without hesitation and without even the most rudimentary checks to support subpoenas.

Ted, quashing a subpoena takes time and money. Do you think you'd have a case for malicious prosecution if you were named? Are you thinking that's too far-fetched a scenario? Think again because many people on that list were stunned to see their names there considering their only "contact" with the plaintiff, Richard Marchese, was seeing his name in print on a message board. Let's not forget it's Dobry that's being sued-- for libel.
