On June 30, 2015, Kristensen LLP filed a lawsuit on behalf of Evan Asano @evanasano for libel per se against a company who made vile false comments about Mr. Asano in response to a negative Yelp! review.  Yelp! is not a defendant.  Shegun Joseph Olora is the defendant in the Complaint that can be downloaded here.  Olaro allegedly owns Pure-r Space.  In response to a negative review, Olaro posted a scathing response, which was false.  The review and response are below: The case is currently pending in Los Angeles Superior Court.  That is Mr. Asano surfing in his Yelp! Avatar.
