ACS:LAW drops charges against alleged filesharers

A lawyer has dramatically withdrawn from pursuing alleged illegal file-sharers in the middle of a court case he brought.

The patent court in London is currently scrutinising 26 cases brought by ACS: Law on behalf of its client MediaCAT.

The law firm had sent thousands of letters to alleged file-sharers.

But in a statement read to the court, solicitor Andrew Crossley said he had now ceased all such work.

He cited criminal attacks and bomb threats as reasons.

Comes as no surprise really, if he hadn't withdrawn them he would of looked even more stupid to the judge and court,
It was a get rich quick scheme that went t*ts up nice to see,crossley & co are scumbags and deserve the book throwing at them
