You may be correct, but the type of lawyers drafting discovery requests to collect on a judgment aren't going to be in that parenthetical group. They probably just heard somewhere that Bitcoin=money and threw it in. You ask for anything and everything in discovery, just to see what sticks.
- rayiner 13y agoA bitcoin article hit my Am Law Daily feed months ago: http://www.americanlawyer.com/PubArticleALD.jsp?id=1202614423813&slreturn=20131103113714 http://www.americanlawyer.com/PubArticleALD.jsp?id=120261442.... Also the ABA Journal: http://www.abajournal.com/magazine/article/some_basic_rules_for_using_bitcoin_as_virtual_money http://www.abajournal.com/magazine/article/some_basic_rules_.... Finally, it's been mentioned several times on Above the Law this year: http://abovethelaw.com/tag/bitcoin http://abovethelaw.com/tag/bitcoin. I think these are pretty mainstream sources such that a lawyer would have at least run across the term.
- waterlesscloud 13y agoThere have been a series of articles in American Banker this year too. Even staid, conservative industries watch their horizons for things that may affect them.
- fatman 13y agoMainstream for the type of lawyers who go to court to collect on judgments? ABA maybe, ATL not so much. Oh wait, discovery after the judgment. Not a separate execution. Yeah, that could be a BigLaw thing.
