Man Forced To Identify Anonymous Web Posters Appeals Case To Texas Supreme Court
by Bob Dunn, Jan 5, 10:58 am


A Missouri City man, ordered in court to submit to questioning by attorneys trying to identify anonymous posters to his web site forum, has appealed the case to the Texas Supreme Court.

In his appeal, Matthew Feinberg seeks an order that Fort Bend District Judge Thomas Culver seal a record of Feinberg’s deposition by Sienna/Johnson Development attorneys, and prohibit its use in any lawsuit the developer might pursue.

However, Sienna/Johnson, developers of the Sienna Plantation community near Missouri City, already have filed a related lawsuit. On Dec. 11, they sued Sienna Plantation resident Chris Calvin for defamation and business disparagement.
