The Guy Who Says He Owns 50% Of Facebook may go to jail for fraud Just Filed A Boatload Of New Evidence -- And It's Breathtaking

Lawyers for Facebook and Mark Zuckerberg just introduced a new pile of evidence in their case with Paul Ceglia, the man who claims to own 50% of Zuckerberg's Facebook stake.

The new evidence/allegations are seriously damaging. Ceglia could end up in jail for this.

We've pulled out the key pieces from the new court filing via Forbes' embed of the filing.

In short, Facebook's attorneys say the contracts are "amateurish" forgeries produced by a serial scam artist.

They've also analyzed Mark Zuckerberg's emails from the period and found no trace of the emails Ceglia used to make his case -- emails that Facebook has always contended are fake.

They are asking the court to speed up the discovery phase of the trial, allowing them to seize Ceglia's computers and prove indisputably that, once again, he has committed criminal fraud.
