Insurer Sues Google in Alabama Over Unflattering Search Results

An insurer is hoping to use an Alabama state law governing deceptive trade practices to stop Google from prominently displaying negative websites about the company. American Income Life Insurance Co. has filed suit in the Jefferson County Alabama Circuit Court charging that Google, along with several websites, are violating state law by “intentionally disparaging the goods, services, or business of the plaintiff by false and misleading representations of fact.”
