Law firm The Moskowitz Law Firm has been granted permission by a Florida district court judge to serve a legal notice via tweet to a cryptocurrency YouTuber, Tom Nash.
Lawyers from The Moskowitz Law Firm claimed that they were unable to serve Nash through other means, and the judge agreed, stating that the filing outlines that Nash's frequent internet use suggests that it appears to be a dependable method of reaching him. The court ruling allows the district court to order an alternate method for service to be executed on foreign defendants, provided it is not against international agreements and is likely to effectively notify the defendant.
The other nine defendants named in the lawsuit comprise seven YouTubers, including BitBoy Crypto's Ben Armstrong, talent management company Creators Agency LLC, and its founder Erika Kullberg. Armstrong missed a court appearance on 20 April to address his alleged "harassment towards plaintiffs' counsel," instead posting pictures of himself on a beach in the Bahamas on Twitter and openly mocking the order.
