Mudd Law Offices filed a Complaint on behalf of SI03, Inc. alleging that anonymous and pseudononymous individuals posted defamatory statements on message board forums found on, at a minimum, the website www.bodybuilding.com.
SI03 Complaint
As a routine matter, the Court dismissed the "Doe" complaint without prejudice and allowed SI03 to pursue expedited discovery.
Order Dismissing Case and Allowing Discovery
Pursuant to the Court's order allowing discovery, SI03 served a subpoena upon Bodybuilding.com, LLC, the owner of www.bodybuilding.com. In response, Bodybuilding.com, LLC objected and complained that the litigation had been dismissed. To remove any substance to this otherwise baseless objection, SI03 moved for clarification from the Court on its order dismissing the case without prejudice.
Motion for Clarification
The Court granted SI03's motion for clarification and explained that the dismissal did not bar discovery.
