BUFFALO, N.Y. — Facebook will try to get a New York man's claim for majority ownership of the website thrown out of court, attorneys for the social networking site said Tuesday.

A complaint by Paul Ceglia of Wellsville claims that a 7-year-old contract he signed with Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg for software development entitles him to 84 percent of the company.

"No one's ever said it's not his signature or it's a fake contract," Ceglia attorney Terrence Connors said during a federal court hearing in Buffalo. Moreover, a lawyer for Facebook, Lisa Simpson, said she was "unsure" whether Zuckerberg had signed the contract Ceglia claims that he did.

“Whether he signed this piece of paper, we’re unsure at this moment,” Simpson told the US District Judge Richard Arcara.
