Paul Ceglia loses lawyer in Facebook case
WANNABE SOCIAL NETWORKING GIANT Paul Ceglia has lost a third legal team as he continues to push for a share of Facebook.
Ceglia has repeated his ownership claims and has claimed to have emails from Mark Zuckerberg. Facebook has denied this and has said that the emails are not real but Ceglia has doggedly pursued the case.
Unfortunately for him he has little support. According to Bloomberg he lost a third legal team this week after he allegedly asked them to violate a court order.
Lawyer Jeffrey Lake filed papers in federal court in Buffalo, New York yesterday asking to withdraw from the case. Ceglia and his new legal team now have three weeks to pick through the murky details and pick up the challenge.
"Paul Ceglia is currently in discussions with several attorneys concerning substitution of new counsel in this case," said Lake in an affidavit filed with the court.
"It is my understanding that these attorneys are diligently coming up to speed with the facts and proceedings in an effort to effectively represent Paul Ceglia in future proceedings."
Typically and perhaps unsurprisingly, Lake appears to have fallen out with Ceglia over whether it was right to give Facebook correct and accurate copies of the emails and accounts that include proof of his ownership. According to Bloomberg, Ceglia instructed his lawyers "not to comply" with the court order.
Ceglia has been chasing his ownership stake since last year, and has used the emails as the basis for his claims. Facebook has consistently denied their validity, however. µ

Hey thanks for the links dude, I took a look and this guy Ceglia has a good case in my opinion. All I have seen in media is how this guy is a con artist and fled to Ireland because he was lying, but after looking at his lawyers site, their evidence is pretty strong especially the evidence presented by Jerry Grant, untill now i never seen grants evidence, which is remarkable because the media should be reporting this, this seems like a case of smear the small guy and favour the big business like facebook, bias on the part of the media in my opinion,. I HOPE THIS GUY GETS JUSTICE AND GETS HIS RIGHTFUL SHARE OF FACEBOOK ZUCKERBERG SCAMMED BEFORE HE COULD DO IT AGAIN
I have being following this story since the start and have seen a lot of evidence on Ceglias side which is not being broadcasted because it is damning to FB. Why isnt the expert views in favour of Ceglia who all agree Ceglia's evidence is authentic? .Lets take this simple fact of email preservation, Ceglia and Zuckerberg used a program called Webmail to email eachother and anyone with any computer knowledge knows that Webmail deletes sent email in order to avoid exceeding storage limits. So according to Ceglia he copied the headers and texts of these emails into word documents in 03-04 in order to not loose them by leaving them in Webmail to be deleted at a later date and put them on floppy discs..comouter forensic expert Jerry Gran after analyzing them says they are consistent with how Ceglia says he copied and saved them here is a link to Ceglias Lawyers website it contains grants evidence along with others and i have to say its quite convincing http://bolandlegal.com/site/ceglia-emails-to-zuck... .. Ther is much more evidence you just have to look at the facts,, unfortunately the media is refusing to report such facts. Or what about Michael McGowans biased analysis of Ceglias computer, at while ago McGowan outlined a framework on how to find out the authencity of such things, he used them on Ceglias computer but refused to use the same framework when analysing the computers of Zuckerberg
