eBay seller Timothy Vernor, who filed a lawsuit against Autodesk Inc. last month over VeRO issues, sent an email to AuctionBytes with an update on his case.

"The publicity I received brought my case to the attention of Greg Beck, an attorney for the Public Citizen Litigation Group. He has agreed to represent me. Public Citizen is a consumer rights non-profit group started over 30 years ago by Ralph Nader. Greg has already successfully represented two eBay sellers in DMCA abuse cases. If people still would like to help with my case they can contribute through their website www.citizen.org or sign up for their email list to get updates about the case."

A website called AECnews.com has published an interview with Public Citizen's Greg Beck about Vernor's case (http://aecnews.com/articles/2477.aspx).
