“U.S. District Judge Araceli Martinez-Olguin, a Joe Biden appointee, denied Automattic and Mullenweg’s bid to strike or dismiss claims including defamation, trade libel, unjust enrichment and intentional interference with contractual and economic relations claims. She partly granted dismissal of antitrust and one Computer Fraud and Abuse Act claim, both with leave to amend.”

Via @ianb:
“Even if this case ends with a complete victory for Mullenweg and Automattic, his actions have shaken my support of — and faith in — the WordPress ecosystem. The original dispute is something I can understand. Mullenweg’s response, however, remains alarming. Actions do not need to be illegal for them to be wrong.”
