> Theft is never legal; that's why you can be sued.

That's incorrect. You can be sued for anything. If it is theft or something else or nothing is decided by the courts.

That is entirely my point. It can only be decided by the courts. This being a civil matter, it has to be brought up by a lawsuit. Thus, you have to be sued and it has to be decided by the courts.
