ZVK Success in Cyberbullying Case
In 2018, ZVK’s lawyers successfully obtained orders from the Ontario Court for the removal of hundreds of defamatory postings from the Internet, due to a long-term campaign of cyberbullying of ZVK’s 50 clients. The court also prohibited the defendant from posting any additional defamatory content online. In addition, ZVK’s lawyers were successful in obtaining an Anton Pillar Order against the defendant, which is equivalent to a civil search and seizure order, for the preservation of relevant electronic evidence.
