Should I Ignore my Strike 3 Holdings LLC Subpoena?

No, we do not recommend that you ignore the Strike 3 Holdings subpoena. This subpoena is real and is not a scam as you are being sued for copyright infringement in federal court.

Right now you are known to the court as John Doe. If you ignored your subpoena your internet service provider will likely release your name to Strike 3 Holdings LLC’s lawyers. Once the company Strike 3 Holdings has your name, in almost all cases they will amend the complaint name in the public court documents from ‘John Doe’ to your name. You will then be served with a court summons.

Under no circumstances should you ever ignore a court summons.

Many clients don’t mind losing their anonymity, but the downside to ignoring your Strike 3 Holdings subpoena and receiving a summons is that your options moving forward are more limited.
