... A judge in Denver on Friday signed a writ of execution requested by defense attorneys and requiring the U.S. Marshals Service to seize Righthaven’s bank accounts, property and intellectual property rights.
The property is to be seized for the benefit of Righthaven creditor Leland Wolf of the It Makes Sense Blog, who defeated Righthaven in one of Righthaven’s copyright lawsuits.
... The writ of execution was requested by Wolf’s attorneys after Righthaven couldn’t or wouldn’t pay the $35,394.
