Empire
Online Sues Partygaming
As reported by the BBC News:
"Empire Online, which promotes internet
poker and casino sites, has started legal proceedings
against former ally Partygaming in Gibraltar
High Court.
"The
legal action follows Partygaming's move to separate
its online poker system from that of its 'skins'.
"Skin
sites such as Empire directed users to online
poker operators, such as to Partygaming's Party
Poker site, and were paid commission for doing
so.
"…Empire
has lost more than half its market value since
it floated in June.
"'The
company seeks substantial damages and injunctive
relief from Partygaming,' Empire said on Tuesday.
"…However,
a Partygaming spokesman said the legal action
by Empire could be considered as the first 'pantomime'
of the season…"
