PHILADELPHIA – A Nevada limited liability company claims that unknown persons residing in Pennsylvania have unlawfully uploaded one of its movies online.

Headhunter LLC filed a complaint on July 3 in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania against John Does 1-11 alleging copyright infringement.
