Larry Scantlebury, RIP

by on August 13, 2006

Ars reports that the RIAA has graciously moved to extend the deadline in its lawsuit against one Larry Scantlebury. Because, as the request puts it:

Plaintiffs do not believe it appropriate to discuss a resolution of the case with the family so close to Mr. Scantlebury’s passing. Plaintiffs therefore request a stay of 60 days to allow the family additional time to grieve.

In the event the parties do not reach a resolution with Mr. Scantlebury’s estate or the other family members involved, Plaintiffs anticipate amending the complaint following depositions of members of Mr. Scantlebury’s family.

Maybe they can hold the depositions in conjunction with the funeral to expedite the process.
