Status: Settled.

Solengo Capital Advisors filed a complaint against the Dealbreaker.com blog for copyright infringement after the site posted Solengo’s promotional brochure. Dealbreaker.com refused to remove the brochure, claiming that it was newsworthy. After a preliminary injunction was denied, the parties reached a settlement in August 2007. The terms of the settlement are unknown, but the brochure has been permanently removed from the site.
