I sure hope so....although I have a feeling that going after "Columbia graduate, Ranger Rover driving, executive guy" looks like a much juicier target than going after one of your fellow thugs who's probably also an "aspiring rapper".
Somewhat related question to you and any other lawyers out there...but is there such a thing as litigation insurance? What do people with money/perceived money do to protect themselves from this kind of thing? Its one thing to be innocent...its another thing to have to go into debt to prove it.
