Default Footballer takes proceedings against Twitter

[http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/technology-13477811

Quote:
Legal proceedings are being taken by a professional footballer against Twitter for allegedly publishing information covered by a super-injunction.

The player, identified only by the initials CTB, is also known to be taking action against the Sun newspaper and ex-Big Brother star Imogen Thomas.

Papers lodged in the High Court are against Twitter and "persons unknown".

They request disclosure of Twitter users said to be behind the publication of confidential information.

The order requires Twitter to disclose the requested information within seven days - or within the appropriate time required by the law in California, where Twitter has its headquarters.

Twitter has refused to comment on the matter.

Media lawyer Nick Lockett said the legal action against Twitter may not have much effect.
All this legal action must be costing *$%^ &*£$^% a small fortune .....
