Peter Damon filed a suit, claiming he did not sign a release.  That is all

that I know of, and as far as I know, nothing has happened with it.  Now
of 
course, prosecuting such a case would be expensive, but there are plenty
of 
resources out there to take care of that (folks who would like to see
Moore 
get taken down, for example, and that is ignoring contingency
arrangements).

How charged with punishment the scroll,
