DMCA victim Dmitri Sklyarov has hired attorney John Keker (famous for his prosecution of Oliver North during the Iran-Contra scandal) to represent him:
Keker\’s decision to represent Sklyarov, believed to be one of the first to be criminally charged under the Digital Millennium Copyright Act, could put an end to speculation that a plea deal is in the works.
Keker of Keker & Van Nest won\’t say whether any plea offers are on the table but said he wasn\’t brought aboard to cut a deal.
\”They are always welcome to dismiss the case, but we didn\’t come in to make a plea deal,\” Keker said Thursday. \”We are here to deal with the defense of the case and to win it.\”
