There is method to his madness. Big business has been trying to stop consumer advocacy lawsuits for decades--the kind of thing that got us seatbelts. They frame the changes they want as "tort reform" to prevent "frivolous lawsuits." The guy is trying to head that off by filing a blatantly frivolous lawsuit and saying, "try and stop me."
Oh, I know that. I just had to laugh at his audacity in choosing his defendant. :) I wonder if 'God' will show up for his* court date, a'la George Burns in those Oh, God! movies. (But how would he be served his subpoena? "Hey, any of you guys able to travel astrally?")

i can see some sheriff somewhere walking up to someone about to die saying "Pardon me, sir. (or ma'am if you choose) My department has been trying to deliver this subpoena for some time now. Could you, perhaps, give this to god if/when you see her? (props to Kevin Smith) Thanks so very much...what do you mean you're feeling better?"
