Having "exhausted" all of its appeals, StubHub this month has begun updating the customer information it is providing the New England Patriots in the legal battle the two have waged for two years.

StubHub President Chris Tsakalakis, in a recent email to ticket brokers, customers and others, explains that the company is being ordered by the court to update the records.

"As you may know, in November of 2006, the New England Patriots filed a lawsuit against StubHub over our right to provide a marketplace for the resale of Patriots tickets. As part of the lawsuit, the Massachusetts Superior Court ordered StubHub to surrender the contact information of StubHub customers who bought, bid on, listed or sold tickets to a Patriots home game from November 2002 to January 2007," Tsakalakis wrote.

"After exhausting our appeals, we were required to comply with the court's order. Despite our continued efforts to fight turning this information over to the Patriots, the court recently ordered StubHub to surrender that same information (contact information of StubHub customers who bought, bid on, listed or sold tickets to a Patriots home game) from January 24, 2007 going forward. In light of this recent ruling, you have been identified as a customer whose contact information, listing and/or transactional information, must be provided to the Patriots."



so what is the patriots going to do with that information.

Take you to court for what?

I can see taking away season tickets, but for the rest of us who bought and sold during the regular sale, whatcha think they are going to do?

i think the patriots should think about getting bill belichick a new Canon HF100 video camera so he can tape the other teams signals in HDTV .
