Can you cite an example of such a "John Doe" trial in the U.S.?
Not exactly, but judgements against John Doe's or even "$956,334.34" are common. Typically they are default judgements where a property seizure is involved.
"The United States of America v. $534,444.00" and "The United States of AMerica v. One Red Porsche" is a common theme.
And of course since the defendant is not a person, it does not have to be presumed innocent :-( Gary -- pub 1024/C001D00D 1996/01/22 Gary Howland <gary@systemics.com> Key fingerprint = 0C FB 60 61 4D 3B 24 7D 1C 89 1D BE 1F EE 09 06
