    Anyone know if an individual can send a C&D?

    Can an individual send a C&D or does it have to come from an attorney to be valid. I need to send one regarding text works that I have requested be removed from a website that has not been done so.

    And I hope you are reading you piece of shit fucker.. cause next step is calling an attorney

          There is no such thing as a valid or invalid C&D, its just a letter saying stop.

              well I can't post the link because it leads to another resource site. However, this person has been the source of severe board drama lately here, is banned and has about 15 different aliases that he sells email lists under... ring a bell? and it's not on his board it's on the resource/news site

                              C&D is a friendly letter. You do not need one to pursue legal action
                              You can sue and be sued without any C&D. It may help you in court if you can tell the judge you have tried to get them to stop by sending a C&D

                                  anyone can send a C&D . . . just that usually an attorney will know what to say to get the message across . . . the letterhead never hurts either.

                                      a C&D is not mandatory, it is a courtesy

                                                  If you really dont like them, dont even send one. Just sue them, if you send a C&D they might get rid of all old evidence, no reason to give warning.

                                                      I don't need copies, I do better writing them from scratch, that way it doesn't appear to be cookie cutter.

                                                      Give me some info and I can probably hook you up

                                                              Contact his host and tell them he has your stuff on their server(s) without your permission. Tell them you want it removed asap or you will be handing it over to your attorney and also contacting their upstream if they're a reseller. Ask for their attorney's contact info and mailing address. Sometimes that's enough to make the host either cancel the account or tell the person to take it down, since they don't want to become involved themselves. Worth a shot.

                                                                              if host is in usa, you are in luck.

                                                                              determine the contact for the "agent for copyright".

                                                                              be prepared to make your case to this individual.

                                                                              if you have the evidence to back up your claim make sure you indicate that if you must sue for damages the host will be named as a contributory infringer.

                                                                              this is the most efficient way to get your material removed from another website, the host leans on the guy whose stealing your stuff---if he doesn't take it down, the host pulls the plug on his website. (this is relevant to US-based webhosts)
