Rosenthal v. Fein, No. 101253-2007 (N.Y. Sup. Ct. filed 2007)

Status: Case discontinued.

Book author Ellen Fein, who was unsatisfied with the work that dentist Larry Rosenthal did in an effort to improve the appearance of her teeth, set up two web sites, “Larry W. Rosenthal is a Big Fat Liar” (www.lyingdentist.com; no longer active) and “Why Dr. Larry Rosenthal, DDS of New York is a Very Bad Dentist” (www.baddentist.com; substantially altered), detailing her complaints. Rosenthal then sued over the site. The case was discontinued in November 2008.
