Kenneth Eades lost the lawsuit and then was sued by the SEC.
"On June 29, 2012, the Securities and Exchange Commission filed a civil action in the United States District Court for the Central District of California against Gold Standard Mining Corp. (“Gold Standard”), its Chief Executive Officer/Chief Financial Officer Panteleimon Zachos, attorney Kenneth G. Eade, auditor E. Randall Gruber and his firm Gruber & Company LLC."
"If the name Kenneth Eade sounds familiar, it is because he is a well-known lawyer for penny stock companies who made the mistake of suing a bunch of message board posters (including Janice Shell) and InvestorsHub for libel back in 2011. He lost that case badly. Below is a quote from the iHub press release about the verdict:
Kenneth Eade sued iHub and 10 John Doe posters in February of this year for allegedly defamatory posts made on the iHub website. iHub raised several meritorious defenses, including that the comments made by the John Doe posters were protected speech under the First Amendment and that immunity was provided by the Communications Decency Act.
In his 12-page ruling, The Honorable John A. Kronstadt granted iHub’s motion to strike Eade’s complaint in its entirety and without leave for him to amend. The court’s ruling effectively dismissed the action against the John Doe posters as well.
Dave Lawrence, spokesperson for iHub commented, “This federal court ruling finding in favor of iHub and awarding legal costs should serve as notice to others who would engage in frivolous litigation, try to plead around CDA immunity or attempt to chill the public’s exercise of freedom of speech.”"
