Not hardly. There is a little thing called standing. Unless a law firm can
show that they have been injuried by Caldera's or Red Hat's actions and are
suing on their own behalf they can not initiate a law suit in the courts,
because they have no standing. What they can do is if they have already
been retained by a party with standing i.e. an investor, they can try to
expand it into a class action suit by locating as many of the injuried class
as possible.
