Facebook Wants Ownership Case Thrown Out

crimeandpunishment writes "Attorneys for Facebook and a New York man claiming majority ownership of the site faced off in a Buffalo courtroom Tuesday, and if Facebook gets its way there won't be too many more days in court. The site wants to get Paul Ceglia's claim thrown out of court. He claims a seven-year-old agreement with Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg entitles him to 84 percent of the company. Facebook acknowledges Ceglia and Zuckerberg worked together, but says the contract Ceglia submitted was full of 'things that don't make sense.'"

Zuckerberg probably never disclosed this old contract

And thats yet another reason Zuckerfuck needs to be put in jail. Not disclosing the contract most certainly makes every move the Z douche has made illegal, he's commited SO much fraud I doubt he can tell where it starts and where it ends. He's been selling bits of a company that he doesn't even own a controlling interest in thanks to how he was attempting to rip someone else off.

When Facebook got money, the concept of DD for an Internet company was something along the lines of 'is the site up right now? Yea? Good enough for me!' Or 'No? Ehh, its a website no big deal we can fix it tomorrow, thats Good enough for me!

If this turns out to be legit, there are going to be several VC companies that will rape him over this, rightly so.

Can we please just put a bullet in his head and save everyone a lot of money and time?

Freaking awesome.

Now we have lawyers on slashdot ... because they read it on Wikipedia.

Do you guys go to real lawyers and tell them about how you read wikipedia and know how you want to handle your court case?

I'm just curious how long it takes for them to clean out your bank account or laugh you out of the room, and which one happens most often in your case.

I doubt Ceglia will take less than 50%, but I won't be surprised if he takes that if he's offered it, and let the production delays slide.

Why would he do that? If they start making offers for 50%, he knows he's whipped their ass and will hold out for it in its entirety. I would at least, just to spank the ever living fuck out of Zuckerdouche.
