Filed July 12, 2025, this ex parte application by Christopher J. Cordova seeks leave to serve a third-party subpoena on Google/YouTube before a Rule 26(f) conference. The request stems from defendant’s operation of the Frauditor Troll channel, which allegedly republished large portions of Cordova’s registered video “Another Chad Exposed!!! Worthless Denver Cops…ASSAULTED!!!” without permission. The application argues that the defendant used a false New York address in DMCA counter-notices and cannot be identified or served without limited discovery.
