Not to nitpick, but there is absolutely nothing you can do, including dying, which will free you from the possibility of being sued. Having a non-frivolous case is another matter entirely, but even showing up in court to have a frivolous case dismissed is not a free proposition (which is the main point of most filed cases anyway -- to harass the person being sued). But your hypothetical submitter above doesn't free Digium from liability, either. If you receive stolen property, you must give it up immediately upon being informed that it is stolen property, or you're an accessory to its theft. -- Tilghman _______________________________________________ Asterisk-Dev mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-dev To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-dev
