Monster cable may have picked a fight with the wrong guy

Monster cable issued a C&D to one Blue Jeans Cable accusing them of infringing 5 design patents:

Monster sues Blue Jeans Cable

...but it seems Blue Jeans Cable is run by a former attorney, and his response is epic:

Blue Jeans strikes back

He gave Monster fourteen days to respond; hopefully we'll hear more about this.

I have one thing to say about this. Bwahahahahahahahaha! Finally, a lawyer that shares my pet peeve.

I will follow this to it's bitter, wonderful conclusion. Hell, I'll even try to interview the good guy.

There is an interview with this guy, posted today, that I've just started reading:
Kurt Denke Interview

I can't wait to see what happens. I really hope that someone at Monster gets hot-headed over the little guy fighting back, and they actually proceed to court. Someone's going to get wrecked, and I don't think it's Kurt Denke.

I buy my HDMI cables from Hong Kong for about $1 or $2 on ebay and they work perfectly.

Excellent letter. I wish there were more people that would stand up like that.

In the interview the guy says it would cost around a thousand dollars just to get the right people to write that letter and that's after you find the right people.

Other than the humorous opening, it is a fairly basic listing of discovery demands in a very casual form. It would not be very costly to generate such a letter.
