Brabus Ventures v. Zablotskyy, No. VG08390958 (Cal. Super. Ct., Alameda Co. filed June 4, 2008).

Status: Dismissed

Following a series of postings on the “Go Beyond MLS” blog (www.go-beyond-mls.com) in which former real estate agent Vlad Zablotskyy criticized the website www.ePerks.com, operated by Brabus Ventures Corp, Brabus filed a complaint in state court alleging defamation. The complaint claimed that Zablotskyy defamed Brabus by asserting that they had indirectly and falsely accused him of charges of child molestation on the Yahoo! answers website through an attempt to identify them with the IP address used by the poster. Brabus voluntarily dismissed the action on October 23, 2008.
