SDNY COURTHOUSE,
Jan 25 – Vicki Conrad
shot a photo of Meaghan Markle
at a Christmas themed event in
2017; she says it "depicts Ms.
Markle and a male friend. Now
she has sued Yahoo.
The case has been
assigned to U.S. District
Court for the Southern
District of New York Judge
Gregory H. Woods, and Inner
City Press is covering
it.
Yahoo
re-published Conrad's photo of
Markle, "apparently through
the process of embedding."
Yahoo for
another photo credited Getty,
but did not credit
Conrad.
Yahoo,
owned by Verizon, wants to
move to dismiss. Conrad
consents to the motion being
filed, believing now that "the
making the adjudication of the
motion will likely advance the
ultimate resolution of the
case."
On February 4,
Judge Woods held another
proceeding, to discuss
possible severance. Judge
Woods agreed to grant a stay
of discovery.
The case is
Conrad et al v. Yahoo! et al.,
20-cv-8638 (Woods)
