Volkswagen bugs VWX.com - Files motion of contempt.


In a conversation with Mr. Anderson, attorney Scott Ryther indicated that Volkswagen had received emails from one Dave Lugo (www.etherboy.com) and that Volkswagen executives had also received hard copies of an email directed and intended only for Howard, Phillips and Andersen, via the US postal service. Ryther indicated that Volkswagen believes these communications to Volkswagen executives originated from Anderson and will be the basis of their filing. Volkswagen stated it will seek an award of its fees and costs, and plans to suggest a fine payable to the Court of not less than $10,000. (audio taped)

Owner of VWX.com, James Anderson, contends that he has not communicated with Volkswagen executives in any way and views this as yet another attempt to shut down vwx.com through legal harassment. Anderson said, "Perhaps they feel if they just keep suing me, I'll break." Anderson said he was able to contact Dave Lugo at www.etherboy.com, because Mr. Lugo, a system administrator, carbon copied him on his emails to Volkswagen. Anderson said, "I just don't understand why Volkswagen would file this motion without completing even the simplest investigation. If they did, they would have discovered that these communications did not originate from me. I told them it wasn't me, when they called. I even told them who I thought it was, but they decided to file the motion anyway. Volkswagen's actions to date have been reprehensible, if not illegal. Volkswagen needs to be held accountable for its actions. If I can find an attorney, it will be: If not, hopefully I'll be able to defend myself against these false charges and keep the lights on."
