Lessiter Publications Sues Former Employees

A feud between niche media publisher Lessiter Publications and three former employees has just turned nasty.

According to a lawsuit filed in Waukesha County, Wisconsin, three former employees of Lessiter, Todd Rank, Paul Markgraff, and Michael Podoll, left to start a competing magazine company, Three Cycle Media.

But according to Lessiter, Three Cycle Media LLC and three domain names were started before Rank, Markgraff, and Podoll had actually quit. Lessiter also says that Three Cycle Media stole one of Lessiter’s clients.
