Verizon, Yellow Book Square Off in Court Over False-Ad Claim
Attorneys, paralegals and summer associates jammed a New York federal court Monday as a trial got underway into claims by Verizon's yellow pages unit that an ad campaign by its chief independent rival, Yellow Book USA, violates state and federal laws. Verizon seeks a permanent injunction to stop the campaign, which it says is built around the false claim that Yellow Book's directories are more heavily used than Verizon's. Yellow Book claims its ads never targeted Verizon directly.Matican, plaintiff-appellant v. City of New York, defendants-appellees

Although he found some similarities, he ruled that none of them amounted to copyright infringement.9th Circuit Fishes for Punitive Fix in Exxon Case

The class action by those who suffered economic damage from the spill has bounced repeatedly between the 9th Circuit and the Alaska courtroom of Judge H. Russel Holland, a result of Holland's reluctance to significantly lower the award. It's also due to the changing Supreme Court guidelines on how to award punitive damages.Trending Stories
