  • The court denied Pinterest's motion to dismiss the suit. However, it eliminated co-founder Sciarra as a defendant because he left Pinterest a decade ago.
  • Martinez was friends with Silbermann when he asked her to "salvage a failed shopping app" that later became Pinterest, she claimed.
  • Martinez developed some of the main concepts for the platform, including features that helped users create "pinboards" reflecting their cultural tastes, and made a marketing plan to enlist bloggers to recruit users. 
  • Martinez claimed that Silbermann and Sciarra embedded her name in the platform's source code.
