In the USA lawyers are permanently poised to leap into lawsuits. Climate sceptics however, have over the last 18 months described high profile warmists as liars, crooks and frauds.
(See this example.) No lawsuits have been presented against these specific allegations of scientific dishonesty. Today's article from

the blatant corruption exposed at Britain’s premiere climate institute was not contained within the nation’s borders. Just months after the Climategate scandal broke, a new study has uncovered compelling evidence that our government’s (USA) principal climate centers have also been manipulating worldwide temperature data in order to fraudulently advance the global warming political agenda...Not only does the preliminary report [PDF] indict a broader network of conspirators, but it also challenges the very mechanism by which global temperatures are measured, published, and historically ranked...the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) stands accused by the two researchers of strategically deleting cherry-picked, cooler-reporting weather observation stations from the temperature data it provides the world through its National Climatic Data Center (NCDC). D’Aleo explained to show host and Weather Channel founder John Coleman that while the Hadley Center in the U.K. has been the subject of recent scrutiny, “[w]e think NOAA is complicit, if not the real ground zero for the issue.”
And their primary accomplices are the scientists at GISS, who put the altered data through an even more biased regimen of alterations, including intentionally replacing the dropped NOAA readings with those of stations located in much warmer locales...we’d be nuts were we to surrender our freedoms, our economic growth, and even our simplest comforts to duplicitous zealots before checking and double-checking the work of the prophets predicting our doom should we refuse...more here......I wonder if the silence in court is due to articles such as
