US Federal court will make its decision during this month on Facebook and the stolen code. Mark Zuckerberg may need some supports.

The lawsuit, filed by brothers Cameron and Tyler Winklevoss, and Divya Narendra, accuses Zuckerberg, Facebook?s 23-year-old C.E.O, of stealing the source code, design, and business plan for Facebook in 2003 when he briefly worked in the Harvard dorms as a programmer for their own fledgling social-networking site, now known as ConnectU.

The plaintiffs have demanded that Facebook be shut down and that full control of the site – and its profits – be turned over to them.

This reminds me when Google gave 2.7 million shares to Yahoo because of a dispute between AdWords and Overture patent.
