Recently, we blogged about a case where a judge ordered a disgruntled customer to remove her colorful Yelp and Angie's List reviews about a contractor's services pending a decision on the defamation claims by the contractor.
The Supreme Court of Virginia just backpedaled substantially, vacating the injunction as premature. In Virginia, at least, speech must be adjudicated defamatory before it can be silenced.
No word yet on whether the contractor is moving forward with his claims for defamation. Stay tuned.
