Frank Merhib vs. Investorshub.com, Inc. (March 2008)

Circuit Court of the 17th Judicial Circuit, Broward County, Florida
Case No. 0811215

Summary: Frank Merhib sued iHub in Florida state court in 2008 when iHub refused to take down allegedly defamatory third party posts. iHub was not aware of the lawsuit as it had not been properly served and only became aware of it after Merhib obtained a default judgment. iHub filed a motion with the court to have the default judgment reversed, which the court granted.

Outcome: Case closed. Before iHub had the opportunity to counter-sue for its legal costs incurred in reversing his statutorily barred lawsuit and judgment, Merhib died in a traffic accident.
