A Virginia federal court awarded America Online nearly $7 million in damages as part of the Internet service providers' legal victory over a junk e-mail operation, AOL said Monday.
The award--AOL's largest compensation to date in its legal tussles with junk mailers--marks the company's second triumph over the marketer CN Productions and its owner Jay Nelson. CN and Nelson had been charged with sending, for more than four years, unsolicited and deceptive e-mail to AOL and its members. The decision in the case was reached Oct. 25 in the U.S. District Court of the Eastern District in Virginia; case documents had been sealed until recently.
C|Net has more.
