Just when you thought the “gravy train” of copyright lawsuits had found its favorite stops, Strike 3 Holdings has decided to take a scenic tour. On September 8, 2025, a fresh batch of 17 new cases hit the federal dockets, with a particularly heavy concentration in the courts of Michigan. It seems the Great Lakes State is about to get a crash course in the legal machine that has kept so many lawyers busy and so many internet users worried.
The filings are split between the Michigan Eastern and Western District Courts, a clear sign that Strike 3 is casting a wide net across the state. Judges with names like Shalina D Kumar, Terrence G Berg, and Robert J White are now on the frontline, staring down their own stacks of “Strike 3 Holdings v. John Doe” paperwork. One can only hope their coffee is strong.
But Michigan isn’t alone in this legal blitz. The California Eastern District Court also received a new wave of cases, reminding us that no single state can corner the market on alleged copyright infringement.
This new geographical focus highlights the relentless and systematic nature of the Strike 3 business model. It’s a game of numbers, and it seems Michigan has just become the newest piece on the chessboard. The “John Does” may be anonymous for now, but in the world of copyright trolling, a quiet download can lead to a very public legal fight. So, to all our friends in the Mitten State, consider yourselves officially on notice. The digital dragnet has a new target, and it’s coming to a court near you.
