Cyberlaw Clinic client John Doe and his anonymous speech rights have prevailed in the fight against Global Adhesives company H.B. Fuller. Fuller has withdrawn its subpoena to Yahoo seeking Doe's identity and has requested that the court dismiss Doe's appeal as moot. This is a great victory for our client and for free speech rights online.
The Sixth District Court of Appeal in California has granted Cyberlaw Clinic client John Doe's motion to unseal records in H.B. Fuller v. Doe. In the trial court, Doe and Fuller stipulated to sealing documents Fuller claimed contained confidential information. On appeal, we moved to unseal the records in the appellate court because they do not contain confidential information.
Some of the documents in Fuller v. Doe are sealed. You can download the redacted versions of these documents, however.
