Manhattan attorney Robert Feldman must take down allegedly defamatory comments he made about negative online reviews that he believed were written by a former client, a state judge has ruled, though the judge declined to bar Feldman from making any such statements in the future.
The Oct. 2 ruling from Manhattan Supreme Court Justice Cynthia Kern (See Profile) in Glassman v. Feldman, 102988/12, also denied a request by Feldman to consolidate the lawsuit with a legal malpractice suit filed against him by the former client, second-year Brooklyn Law School student Donald Glassman. The malpractice suit is pending before Manhattan Supreme Court Justice Judith Gische.
