Doug hit the plagaristic nail on the head - you can get justice, IF you can afford it. He was lucky enough to even find a lawyer who was willing to take his case. Many, many, many lawyers will listen to your grievance politely, ask what you hope to recover, run the numbers in their head and then, just as politely, tell you that they can't help you but perhaps what's-his-name down the road can. The best way to deal with these cyber-plagarists is to not buy their stuff and give them bad recommendations at every opportunity.
