    Copyrighted Legal Pleadings

    Law firm Milberg Weiss Bershad Hynes & Lerach found that other plaintiffs' firms were copying its complaints verbatim. So it started putting copyright notices on its pleadings, and started registering them with the Copyright Office. Now it is sending out "cease and desist" letters, though it has yet to file any lawsuits, according to this article. Sounds like a stretch to me . . . .
