In my continuous efforts to highlight legal action taken against those accused of unlawful utilize of MMA Pay Per view products, reasons for judgement were released last week by the united states district Court, E.D. California, addressing an application for enforcement of a default judgement.
In last week’s situation (Joe Hand Promotions v. Sorondo) the Plaintiff had the exclusive industrial exhibition licensing rights to World extreme Cagefighting: Jose Aldo v. Urijah Faber. They sued the Defendant, a pub in California, for unlawfully intercepting, receiving, as well as exhibiting the Program. The accused failed to respond to the lawsuit and default judgement for $12,900 was granted.
Some 3 years later, the Plaintiff was attempting to execute the judgement against the Defendants property. Although the Plaintiff’s application was dismissed for technical reasons, it was done so without prejudice Camiseta Sao Paulo FC meaning the Plaintiff might bring a further Camiseta Gamba Osaka application correcting the deficient evidence as well as get on with collections procedures.
There are at least three lessons to gain from this decision, the very first is that Joe Hand Promotions will go after assets to satisfy their legal judgement, the second is that the passage of time is no assurance of security as today’s situation demonstrates on going collections efforts years after the fact. Lastly, as well as perhaps most importantly, this situation demonstrates that failing to respond to a lawsuit is not a great strategy as it resulted in a hefty default judgement which perhaps might have been contested on the merits.
