FOX on Tech: Man Sues For Half of Facebook

A man in upstate New York is turning up the legal heat on Facebook creator Mark Zuckerberg, whose website now has 845 million users and recorded $3.7 billion in revenue last year.

FOX News Radio’s Pat O’Neill has details on just how much he’s seeking:

Paul Ceglia, who claims he’s entitled to half-ownership of Facebook, has added five attorneys to his legal team. ?His lead attorney says that should be seen as a sign of the case’s strength. ?Ceglia is suing Facebook and founder Mark Zuckerberg in federal court in Buffalo, saying a contract he signed in 2003 with Zuckerberg, then a Harvard University freshman, entitles him to half of the multibillion-dollar social networking site.

Facebook lawyers say the contract is doctored and has nothing to do with the company.
