Paul Ceglia, the man who claims that he owns 84 percent of Facebook Inc., shed interesting light on the alleged contract between him and Mark Zuckerberg.
According to a report on Bloomberg, Ceglia says that the lawsuit would not have happened had he not been arrested and had to look through some old files.
Everyone can now assume that this is his answer to the many people who have been asking, why he waited seven years to make the claim?
Now that the contract is found, he says he’s going after Mark Zuckerberg because a deal is a deal.
Andrew Logan, StreetDelivery’s founder and CEO, enters the scene to give more spices into this Facebook ownership drama.
Logan claimed Ceglia was under contract to StreetDelivery in 2003 when the latter set up StreetFax and hired Zuckerberg.
If Ceglia’s contract with Zuckerberg gives Ceglia an ownership interest in Facebook, that interest may belong to Logan, he said.
“We’re going to lay claim that I own it,” Logan added.
Meanwhile, Henry Blodget at the Business Insider, wrote in an article that the checkbook evidence in the case is almost certainly a forgery.
If you have been following the story of this latest tug-of-war between Ceglia and Mark Zuckerberg for the ownership of Facebook, you know that the ‘contract’ between Ceglia and Mark Zuckerberg entered into two separate transactions of $1000 each, one for development work of StreetFax and one for The Face Book.
So far Facebook and Mark Zuckerberg have the upper hand in the case. How the case ends rest in the hand of the court.
