Mark Partridge Quoted in CNN Article on Social Media Law and Employee Twitter Account Ownership
A recent CNN Article entitled “Experts: Twitter account case may blaze new trails in social media law” quotes Mark V.B. Partridge. The article discusses a pending lawsuit in the Northern District of California regarding whether a Twitter account belongs to a company or its former employee.
In the article, “Mark V.B. Partridge noted that because Twitter is relatively new, disputes that have come up have been settled. But he compared this case to situations in the past in which employees who left a company tried to take registered domain names with them but were not allowed. Partridge said that if this one does go to a court decision, ‘it would certainly be a precedent out there.’”
