On April 27, 2021, post-market, Bloomberg Law published an article entitled “Skillz eSports Founder Usurped Brother’s Trust, Lawsuit Says.” The article reported, in relevant part, that “[t]he brother of Andrew Paradise, billionaire founder of the Skillz Inc. eSports franchise, filed a petition in Delaware seeking to reclaim control over his investment trust after he was allegedly duped into giving free rein to company executives and an attorney beholden to his brother.” Specifically, the article reported that the lawsuit “alleges a ‘scheme’ by Andrew and his attorney—John Pomerance of Mintz, Levin, Cohn, Ferris, Glovsky & Popeo PC—to take over management of the 5% founding equity his brother Jeremy got for suggesting the concept of ‘monetizing’ video game playing.” On this news, Skillz’s stock price fell sharply during intraday trading on April 28, 2021.
