Facebook v StudiVZ

By Marty Schwimmer

ADVERTISEMENTS

markzuckerbergfacebook.jpg

Facebook has sued in California a German company, StudiVZ, for copyright infringement. lIllustration and background from Kasi-Blog here. TechCrunch coverage here. I'll post the complaint when it's in hand.

Update: The case is Facebook, Inc. v Studivz, Ltd., Verlagsgruppe George von Holtzbrinck, Holtzbrinck Networks, Holtzbrinck Ventures, filed July 17 2008, 28:1332. The case is designated for ECF so I assume the complaint will be available on Pacer (attn: Northern District of California practitioners - is that correct?)

UPDATE: News.com.au reports that StudiVZ has filed a complaint in Germany requesting a declaration of non-infringement.
