Archdiocese sues Facebook

National Catholic Reporter,  May 30, 2008  

INDIANAPOLIS -- The Indianapolis archdiocese is suing the online social networking site Facebook to learn the identity of the person who developed a phony Facebook page in the name of a high school administrator.

The suit was filed May 9 on behalf of Tim Puntarelli, dean of students at the archdiocesan-run Roncalli High School in Indianapolis.

Archdiocesan spokesman Greg Otolski said May 15 that the suit was fried after Facebook failed to turn over information about who established the Web page and sent inappropriate messages to students.

The phony Web page's anonymous developers must be identified in order for the archdiocese to determine if additional legal action is required to protect and restore Puntarelli's reputation, Otolski said.
