The California Supreme Court has decided to hear Intel v. Hamidi, which like Eldred v.
Ashcroft has been fought in part with the help of the Berkman Center's Openlaw forum. The defendant, Ken Hamidi of FACE Intel, sent email messages critical of Intel to its employees at their place of work; Intel responded by alleging "trespass to chattels," and went on to win a court order enjoining Hamidi from sending the messages.
