The Full Tilt Poker legal team is busy. On the heels of the presumably still-unresolved Clonie Gowen $40 million lawsuit, another case was filed in the Nevada court system on September 11, 2009. This is the only information available thus far:
Jason Newitt
v.
Tiltware; Full Tilt Poker; Pocket Kings Ltd.; Pocket Kings Consulting Ltd.; Raymond Bitar; Howard Lederer
9/11/2009Contract action. Plaintiff says he was unfairly fired, and that his distribution payments were unfairly ceased. Defendants then took control of his ownership.
Newitt was the former Tilt employee responsible for inadvertently forwarding Howard Lederer e-mail about Jimmy \”Gobboboy\” Fricke (the \”freak and very weird dude\”) — an \”oops\” that revealed a little something about Lederer and Bitar\’s positions and powers within the Full Tilt money machine. Whether or not this had anything to do with Newitt\’s dismissal and the subsequent lawsuit remains to be seen until we get our sneaky little hands on the court documents.
