Paul Ceglia, the man who claimed that he is entitled to half of the social-networking giant’s fortune, according to a contract with Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg, was ordered to pay Facebook $75,766.70 in legal fees related to the case.

Last month, Ceglia was also ordered to pay $5,000 to the court for ignoring court orders. So far, the fines imposed on Ceglia are: $5,000 payable to the court, $75,766.70 payable to Facebook, plus some unknown amount(s).

The decision was made Tuesday by U.S Magistrate Judge Leslie G. Foschio in Buffalo, N.Y., after ruling that he violated a pretrial discovery order and failed to turn over email account information.

The judge, however, denied Facebook’s request for an order preventing Ceglia from filing any additional motions in the case until those fees were paid.

A three minute video clip has put Facebook and YouTube in trouble.

The video titled ‘Indian Army repeating Abu Gharib in Kashmir’ shows Kashmiri youths being paraded naked by uniformed personnels. The video packaged with subtitles and background music is being circulated on Facebook and YouTube.

The Union government of India says the video is still not authenticated and will security agencies are looking into the matter.

“Until it is authenticated and the persons identified, i think it will be unwise to rely on such a video,” said P Chidambaram, Home Minister, India.

Jammu & Kashmir, India, police says it will register a case against the two networking sites for uploading the video.

“A formal case is being registered against the YouTube and Facebook networks and investigation is on to locate the persons responsible for uploading this baseless and malicious clip,” a police spokesman told PTI, “Action shall also be taken against other organisations who tried to propagate it.”

An attorney for Facebook Inc. said she was “unsure” if Mark Zuckerberg signed an agreement which allegedly entitles a New York man to 84 percent of the world’s largest social network.

Paul Ceglia sued Facebook and Zuckerberg in state court June 30, declaring that the April 2003 contract entitles him to ownership of the majority of the company. Ceglia’s attorney produced a copy of the record for U.S. District Judge Richard Arcara today at a hearing in federal court in Buffalo, New York.

Palo Alto, California-based Facebook, which has not stated the alleged contract with Ceglia is really a fake, has “serious questions” about its authenticity, Simpson said.

The case is the most recent challenge to the origins of Facebook, which is worth $24.6 billion, according to SharesPost.com, a marketplace for closely held companies. Facebook’s paternity has been questioned in a suit by several Zuckerberg’s former Harvard University schoolmates, who claimed he utilized code developed on their own ConnectU venture to start Facebook. They settled in 2008.

Today’s hearing was for Arcara to consider a request by Facebook to dissolve a short-term injunction, issued by a state court judge June 30, stopping the company from transferring assets. The parties resolved the problem by agreeing to let the injunction end July 23. Arcara prolonged an order staying the injunction until then, meaning it will have no impact.

The parties, showing up before Arcara for the first time in the case, also supplied brand new details of their clients’ stories in reaction to inquiries from the judge.

“Mr. Zuckerberg did have a contract with Mr. Ceglia,” Simpson said. Zuckerberg, 26, worked for Ceglia as a computer coder, she said.

Facebook claims Ceglia stayed silent in excess of 6 years and his claim is most likely too old to pursue. Furthermore, Ceglia claims his alleged agreement, which describes “The Face Book,” had been signed about 9 months before Facebook was created, the company said in court papers.

Today in court, Ceglia’s attorney, Terrence Connors, produced a copy of the two-page “work for hire” contract that his client said entitles him to own of the social-networking service.

Search engine giant Google Inc. and Facebook Inc., the largest social-networking site in the world,  have been slapped with a lawsuit by Wireless Ink Corp.

According to a Bloomberg report, Wireless Ink Corp., which runs the Winksite service, has claimed that Facebook Mobile and Google Buzz are infringing a patent related to ways of offering content that is accessible by mobile devices.

The patent issued in October 2009 was apparently filed back in 2004. The firm says the defendants (Google Inc. and Facebook Inc.) must have been aware of the patent, “given the time and resources they have invested in their desktop and mobile web sites as well as their strategic importance.”

Respective spokesman for Google and Facebook said that their company is reviewing the complaint and didn’t offer any immediate comments.

Wireless Ink Corp., with more than 75,000 registered users, is looking for cash compensation and a ban on further use of its invention.

This isn’t the first time Facebook has faced patent-infringement claims over its service. A Boston company called Tele-publishing Inc. sued Facebook over a patent related to a method of providing a personal page last year. Facebook was also sued by Mekiki Co., owner of a Japanese social networking site, in 2009 over patents related to ways to identify “friends” through existing contacts.
