CONTROL THAT KEYBOARD
Message board abuser successfully sued
eCommerce News reports that American resident Sue Scheff has been awarded US$11.3 million in an Internet defamation lawsuit against fellow American Carey Bock, who called her a "crook," "con artist" and "fraud" on an Internet message board.
"What this verdict says is, you can't go and destroy someone's reputation and post defamatory statements about them over the Internet," said Scheff's attorney David Pollack.
A Broward County, Fla., jury has awarded a Weston, Fla., woman US$11.3 million in an Internet defamation lawsuit that legal experts say could spur more courtroom battles over what's said online.
Sue Scheff filed the lawsuit against Carey Bock in December 2003, after the Louisiana woman called her a "crook," "con artist" and "fraud" on an Internet message board for parents interested in alternative schools for troubled teens.
One message landed on the Broward County PTA Web site, calling Scheff's referral company for such parents "an old, old scam."
