I could be wrong, but doesn't Google usually remove the possibly offending items until it checks with it's lawyers? (or was it the other way around?). Either way I think that because of how the law is being used, that they might have to remove the content before checking to see if it is legal, and then reinstate the content after the lawyers say that the complaint is "without merit".
It's really hard to say with the Riaa and everybody else suing everybody else out of existence (or past its existence in the case of napster).
