[Unknown] v. [Unknown], No. ______ (N.Y. Sup. Ct. 200?)

Status: Injunction denied.

In April 2008, the New York Times reported that “Laurie” was sued by her ex-husband for libel over her “DivorcingDaze” podcasts (www.divorcingdaze.com), and that he sought an injunction against them, arguing that they were “obnoxious, derogatory or offensive” and that violated their divorce settlement. The court denied the injunction, holding that while “Laurie’s” statements on the podcasts were “ill-advised and do not promote good parenting,” they were protected by the First Amendment.
