R2C2
R2C2, Inc., owned by Rusty Carroll, is a company located in Carbondale, Illinois, that operates a group of at least nine sites that sold term papers. According to his attorney, they collectively offered a total of 200,000 to 300,000 papers. The sites include: DoingMyHomework.com, FreeforEssays.com, and FreeforTermPapers.com.
Carroll and his company had been previously sued by Blue Macellari at Duke University for copyright infringement, false designation of origin, consumer fraud and deception. That suit was settled in 2006.〔〔〔"MOTION TO DISMISS OF RUSTY CARROLL AND R2C2, INC." (justia.com )〕
==Class action lawsuit==
In 2006, a class action suit was placed against the company and the owner in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Illinois, Chad Weidner, Karolien Walravens et al. v. Rusty Carroll, and R2C2, charging them with copyright violation for reselling papers written by other authors.〔 On January 11, 2010 David Herndon, chief judge of the district court, ruled that Carroll and his company caused continued "irreparable harm" to an indeterminate number of authors.〔http://www.blikopnieuws.nl/bericht/35146〕 The plaintiffs are being represented pro bono by McDermott Will & Emery. On February 1, 2010, he further ruled that he would order the site closed unless the owner could prove he has permission from the papers' authors, but would not prohibit him from selling custom-written papers. Many other sites engage in that practice, although at least 17 states prohibit the practice by law.〔http://www.pzc.nl/regio/zeeland/6194286/RAdocenten-winnen-zaak-om-plagiaat.ece〕
