DLA Piper Secures Victory for WebSpectator
DLA Piper secured a victory in its representation of WebSpectator Corporation, a Santa Monica-based company that pioneered online analytics and attention ad space, as the plaintiff before the U.S. District Court for the Central District of California.
According to a release from DLA Piper, the litigation against the company’s former officers and directors included claims for violations of the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act, the Anti-Cybersquatting Consumer Protection Act and RICO, among other causes of action. Granting WebSpectator’s motion for sanctions for spoliation of evidence, the court entered defaults against the defendants and vacated the trial date.
The DLA Piper team representing WebSpectator was led by partner Ellyn Garofalo and associate Amir Kaltgrad (both of Los Angeles).
