'MARK ALWAYS KEEPS HIS PROMISES': Zuckerberg accused of breaking his word in a new real estate lawsuit

Mark Zuckerberg is in the midst of an increasingly revealing legal battle regarding a home purchase he made in 2013.

Zuckerberg reportedly scooped up the four houses adjacent to his Palo Alto home when he heard that a developer planned to build a large, 9,600-square-foot house on one of the lots behind his property.

The developer reportedly told Zuckerberg that the house he planned to build would have a direct view into Zuckerberg's home, including the master bedroom.

But in May 2014, the developer, Mircea Voskerician, filed suit against Zuckerberg, claiming that the billionaire never followed through on an agreement the two had made in secret.
