So that means 27 suits in 10 years.... or 2-3 per year? That's disgusting.
Someone so litigous has clearly lost their rights to sue.

Well, that's 27 suits involving him, but he was the plaintiff in "only" a
bit more than a third of them.

However, when you add up the total number of people and companies who have
been sued by him or his companies, you do end up with about that many.

Not including the RAH-15 case, the list includes two managing editors of US
AVIATOR, at least five companies (or owners of companies) who were former
advertisers, several individuals or companies I don't recognize (Kropp
Enterprises, Bottom Line Sales, Steven Mann, Aircraft Refinishing Systems,
Harry Smiley). And Sun-N-Fun twice, of course.

Now, you add the RAH-15 case to that, and the totals come to:

Two managing editors (Ken Cooke and Laurel Ramey)
One other employee (Alan Staats, RAH-15)
Two associate editors (the position is merely a title, no salary or
employment is involved...RAH-15 defendants Vern Barr and myself
fall in this category. But as I've mentioned in the past,
I was never *asked* if I wanted to be an associate editor)
Eight former advertisers (Three RAH-15, counting Richard Riley/Berkut)
Nine other RAH-15 co-defendants.
Five individuals or companies I don't know well enough to classify.
One non-profit organization (Sun-N-Fun...twice!)

That's 28 people or companies that have had to defend themselves against a
lawsuit by Jim Campbell or his controlled companies. Most were dismissed
for lack of service, or lack of prosecution (e.g., Campbell filed the suit
and just walked away). Three settled out of court.
