Judge Delays Decision on Restraining ‘Mean-Spirited’ Law Firm Gripe Site
Levinson Axelrod will have to wait until next year to try to shut down a Web site that former associate Edward Heyburn has been using to trash the firm for months. At oral argument on Tuesday, U.S. District Judge Anne Thompson said she would hold off deciding the New Jersey firm's request for temporary restraints until Jan. 11. But Thompson signaled she might be poised to rule against Heyburn's motion to dismiss the complaint. She called the site "mean-spirited" and urged Heyburn to "get a life."
