Barry Diller Sues Alki David Over BarryDriller You will be redirected back to your article in seconds Skip to main content August 22, 2012 10:40am SERVICES TO SHARE THIS PAGE. Barry Diller 

is taking BarryDriller to court. In a 12-page complaint filed against Alki David and BarryDriller.com Tuesday in Los Angeles federal court (read it here) the media mogul alleges David is

using his name to profit with BarryDriller.com. “Defendants are using Plaintiff’s name in their ‘BarryDriller.com’ business to (1) associate their service with Plaintiff, and (2) mislead the

public into believing that Defendants’ service has been judicially sanctioned”, the complaint reads. Diller also alleges that David’s BarryDriller.com is designed to divert customers from

Diller’s Aereo service that streams local broadcast signals to subscribers in New York. Both companies say that they are simply feeding consumers programming that they can already receive

for free. (Broadcasters also are suing Aereo for copyright infringement.) This isn’t David’s only court battle. Fox was the first to sue David over BarryDriller.com, then CBS, NBC and ABC

followed with a joint copyright infringement claim. Diller is seeking injunctive relief and punitive damages. He is represented by Robert Platt at Manatt, Phelps & Phillips. RELATED:
