The Central District Court of California, USA, led by Honorable Judge Stephen F. Wilson, has cleared Nithyananda Foundation of nine charges in a civil suit filed against the Foundation by a real-estate agent Popatlal Savla.

It may be noted that Nithyananda himself is neither a trustee nor partner nor in any way legally involved in this foundation. Also, he is neither a plaintiff, nor an accused, nor a witness nor otherwise involved in the current case, which is between a devotee and Savla.
