Coldplay sued by Joe Satriani
eddie:
I don't support the death penalty but I will make an exception in this case.
Ptommydski:
I meant for the plaintiff and the defendants.
Christophe:
Can we find Steve Vai and the band Travis guilty by association too?
C'mon! We can slippery slope guitarbators and coy British soft-rock bands out of existence in one blow!

You may not have heard about this, but Gary Moore just lost a plagiarism case in Germany where he was sued by an unknown German guitarist, who claimed he stole the guitar melody in Still Got The Blues. Here's a news article, unfortunately in german, I couldn't find an english one. The case is equally ridiculous, the melody in question being a fairly obvious lick over a standard chord progression.

Aw, not Travis. I legitimately like them.
