More on Universal vs. Gerard Jones

Remember Gerard Jones, the blogger who ran afoul of Universal for posting email addresses of their execs on his site? He's now contacted the California Bar Association to report misconduct on the part of Universal's legal counsel (you remember her, don't you? Jones accused her of living in a "solipsistic tree fort"). He posted a copy of his letter in the comments to my last post; check out most of it after the jump.

 In October, 2005 Ms. Carolyn Hampton filed a complaint containing false information with both Dotster and Charter Communications in an attempt to shut down my website, http://everyonewhosanyone.com, and to deprive me of my ability to send legitimate e-mail.

Without consulting me and based solely on Ms. Hampton's false claims, Charter Communications cut off my e-mail service.

In November, 2005 Ms. Hampton said "If you remove the Universal e-mail addresses from your site, then we will withdraw our complaint with Dotster." Although there was nothing whatsoever "wrong" with the content of my website, I removed the Universal e-mail addresses because my site represents three years and thousands of hours of work other than the content about which the false complaint was made. Contrary to her written contract, Ms. Hampton did not withdraw her complaint and instead renewed it again in December, 2005. I believe that conduct (and other conduct you may discover during the course of your investigation) to be in violation of several provisions of the Rules of Professional Conduct and the California State Bar Act.

Thank you for your anticipated prompt discipline of Ms. Hampton in whatever way or ways you may find to be most fit.
