A Beverly Hills doctor is seeking more than $22 million in damages from business intelligence giant Dun & Bradstreet, claiming the New Jersey-based company defamed him by falsely documenting an arrest for sending sexually explicit material to an undercover cop posing as a teenager.

Dr. Jonathan Ellis, a gastroenterologist, filed the lawsuit against Dun & Bradstreet in U.S. District Court for the Central District of California on Dec. 3.
