17 Righthaven copyrights are being auctioned off on eBay today. I’m not going to rehash the entire Righthaven saga here, but if you’re unfamiliar with the story, Righthaven with the business model of purchasing copyrights and suing people. They have become commonly known as a “copyright troll”.

Properties previously acquired by the “company” have been turned over to lawyers, as Righthaven’s debt in legal fees mounted. You can read about the events here.

Rimon Law Group has issued a press release about the auctions, which Partner and Chief Sustainability Officer Lara Pearson tipped us off to. The release says:

This is the third auction of Righthaven property to satisfy court judgments against the Las Vegas company. The RIGHTHAVEN service mark was sold for $1025.00 in an auction that closed this morning. The auctions are being conducted by the court-appointed receiver for Righthaven, Lara Pearson, Esq., operating under the eBay seller name courtappointedreceiver.

It’s mostly sports titles, with a little bit of porn sprinkled in. I’ve linked all the listings below. The porn descriptions are pretty funny (don’t worry, there’s no NSFW imagery or anything, though the language is as strong as you’d probably imagine).

Earlier this year, we saw Righthaven.com taken over by a new entity with a sense of humor.
