Casey Affleck Sued Again For Sexual Harassment


Magdalena Gorka

Another movie industry woman, has sued married actor, Casey Affleck, for sexual harassment, on the set of the film, "I'm Still Here: The Lost Year of Joaquin Phoenix." Last week, the film's director, Amanda White, sued Affleck over a laundry list of terrible sexual harassment and non-payment for directorial work.

Casey Affleck has a problem keeping his hands to himself

This week, the film's female cinematographer, Magdalena Gorka, has sued him as well, for his debauched acts of sexual harassment and non-payment of film work. Gorka contends, Affleck crawled into her bed drunk one night, while she was asleep. She states in her lawsuit, Affleck was only wearing a t-shirt and underwear and began groping her.

Imagine going to bed alone, then rolling over in bed, only to find this dude staring at you like that (she should have kicked him out of bed and shoved her camera stand right up his...)

White's suit also referred to the sexual harassment Gorka was subjected to on the set of the film. Gorka's lawyer stated, she has been in the entertainment industry for 16-years and had not file a sexual harassment claim against anyone until Affleck. He does sound pretty insufferable.

Side Bar: One day, Affleck is going to harass the wrong chick and she is going to kick him in his crown jewels and make him speak like the Aflac duck.

Second woman suing Casey Affleck over harassment on documentary

Fri Jul 30, 2010 @ 12:41PM PST ..."During the middle of the night, [Gorka] awoke to find Affleck lying in the bed next to her," the lawsuit alleges. "Unbeknownst to [Gorka], Affleck had entered the bedroom while she was asleep and crawled into the bed. When she woke up, Affleck was curled up next to her in the bed wearing only his underwear and a t-shirt. He had his arm around her, was caressing her back, his face was within inches of hers and his breath reeked of alcohol."...

But the lawsuit says the abuse continued. "[Gorka] was berated and verbally attacked by Affleck after she refused his sexual advances in New York, and was criticized constantly for refusing to be submissive in response to his rants and derisive comments," the complaint says...

Woman Named As Suspect In Lebron James Pendant Theft

A 19-year-old woman in Ohio, Vaneisha Robinson, 19, claimed she bought a pendant in the shape of a jersey, belonging to former, Cleveland Cavalier basketball player, Lebron James, for a few cents at a flea market. Robinson subsequently had it appraised and was informed it is worth almost $10,000.

Fast-forward a few weeks and she is on television complaining that she is the prime suspect in the theft of the chain, belonging to the basketball player's marketing company. Robinson is claiming James' manager, Maverick O. Carter, verbally abused her in an attempt to get their property back, after she went public with the flea market story that is not an original one.

However, Robinson wishes to fight for the pendant that does not rightfully belong to her, stating she will file a lawsuit. She is now implicated in a felony and could face charges of dealing in stolen goods, as police have labeled her a suspect. She should save her money on litigation, in case she needs it for bail. The mere fact the police have named her as a suspect is a warning to give the pendant back.

Kanye West Sued Again For Stealing Songs


Barry Manilow sang "I write the songs" but Kanye steals them

Rapper, irritator and whiner, Kanye West, has been sued once again, for stealing copyrighted music. This is West's fourth copyright lawsuit the public knows about. This time a case has been filed in Illinois, West's home state, by songwriter/producer, Vincent “Vince P.” Peters, stating the rapper stole the track "Stronger" from his preexisting song of the same name.

He contends in legal papers, both songs share similarities in music and lyrics. "Stronger" went on to sell 3,000,000 copies for West. "Stronger" really does not sound like West's musical forte or fare at all, marking a departure from his previous style.

The Plaintiff is claiming access, via West's business manager, John Monopoly, who he played a copy of the song to at his home, when seeking a music deal. This is one of the most common ways independent and unsigned artists are robbed of their copyrighted music by unscrupulous Hollywood stars and executives.

Erin Andrews Sues Hotels Over Peeping Tom Videos


Erin Andrews

ESPN sportsanchor and "Dancing With The Stars" alum, Erin Andrews, has sued the hotels that negligently allowed a stalker, David Michael Harris, to obtain her room numbers, hack off the peepholes to her doors and illegally film her in different states of undress, uploading it to the internet.

Andrews deserves to win this lawsuit, as hotel security and proper protocols were sorely lacking on two levels and caused her massive emotional and mental distress. The jury should award her serious damages, if the Defendants unwisely refuse to settle.

One, her room numbers should not have been given out by reception, allowing the perverted voyeur to book rooms next to her in more than one state. Two, why didn't security cameras notice Harris hacking off the peepholes to her rooms in different cities. Hotels need to change their policies, as it could result in a stalking victim's death.

In Hollywood, people routinely bribe others to find out where others are staying and under what room number, then engage private eyes to follow them around. This practice needs to stop as well, because stalking is illegal.

Facebook Ownership Lawsuit Gets Ugly

Mark Zuckerberg

UPDATE 7-17-10: Facebook's assets have now been unfrozen by a federal judge

The well-known, social networking website, Facebook, was founded at Harvard University, by a group of students, Tyler Winklevoss, Cameron Winklevoss, Divya Narendra and Mark Zuckerberg. It was originally named ConnectU.

Zuckerberg was later publicly accused of commandeering the project, stealing the source code and taking it public, cutting the others out of a financial stake in the burgeoning website. The Winklevoss twins (members of the U.S. Olympic team) and Narendra sued and the case was dismissed. They re-filed the case and Zuckerberg settled it for $65 million dollars.

Now comes another lawsuit against Zuckerberg. Paul D. Ceglia, alleges in 2003 he contracted Zuckerberg to design a website, the latter called "The Facebook" paying him $1,000 and 50% ownership of the site.

Ceglia has now sued him, claiming 84% ownership of Facebook. The judge in New York presiding over the case, Thomas Brown, has frozen Facebook's assets until the case is resolved.

JK Rowling Sued For Copyright Infringement


Harry Potter

Author JK Rowling has been sued again for copyright infringement, regarding the Harry Potter book series. Rowling and publisher Scholastic Inc, are accused of stealing from the preexisting, 1980's children's' books of deceased author Adrian Jacobs.

JK Rowling

Both JK Rowling and Adrian Jacobs shared a book publishing agent, Christopher Little, who is thought to be the source that passed on the preexisting copyrights to Rowling to plagiarize, netting them both a fortune.

THE SIMILARITIES INCLUDE:

"The premise of both (books) involve a year-long wizard contest — which both protagonists win."

"Both Willy and Harry, the featured wizards in the respective works, are required to deduce the exact nature of the central task in the competition," the complaint reads. "Both Willy and Harry uncover the nature of this central task covertly in a bathroom."

"Both tasks at the center of the wizard competition involve 'rescuing hostages imprisoned by a community of half-human, half-animal creatures.'"

WARNER BROS

Jacobs' estate has credibly sued her in three legal actions over ongoing infringements of preexisting copyrights. The cases are now pending. Here's hoping Warner Bros, the maker of the Harry Potter films, doesn't corrupt the court cases, as they have been known to do.

A Miami lawyer for a massive firm on Brickell Avenue once ominously told me that Warner Bros. wins legal cases, "Because they have connections." That was legal speak for corruption.

They probably do think JK Rowling is a witch

JK Rowling was sued in a separate legal case, regarding the Harry Potter book series, accused of stealing from another children's book author, but that case was dismissed by the judge. Hmm, I wonder why.

Songwriters Jay Ballard and Kim Jones filed suit against the Queen of Hip-Hop/Soul and The Clutch, the songwriting collective that includes Keri Hilson, for jacking their 1995 track of the same name. The suit, filed July 8 in the United States District Court in the Central District of California, is seeking compensation for all albums and singles sold as well as any publishing income earned from the track from its placement in advertisements...

Man Claiming To Be Lebron's Dad Sues For Millions


Leicester Bryce Stovall

A Princeton graduate and former legal advisor to the U.S. Securities and Exchange commission, Leicester Bryce Stovall, has sued basketball player, Lebron James and his mom, Gloria, for paternity, fraud and defamation.

Stovall has demanded $4,000,000 in damages and has requested a jury trial. He claims he had a one night stand with Gloria James when she was 15 and he 29.

Stovall claims he and James are almost identical, which his not true. James is the male version of his mom, who he looks a lot like. He has her facial features. The only similarities I see between Lebron and Stovall is the chin, hair and body build.

Even if you are his dad, why did you pick such an important time in James' life, to come out with such a negative, deeply personal story. What were you hoping to gain, other than the $4,000,000, which you should not have asked for in the first place. It lends the appearance you are after his money.

Lebron James and his son

No judge in his or her right mind would award Stovell any money. Stovall is the one that owes Lebron James and his mother child support back payment, after being an absentee dad and abandoning a 15-year-old mother.

It is obvious you are attempting to take credit for his basketball abilities, but at the end of the day, God gave him that athleticism. Then, by God's grace, his mom raised him.

Keep it up and Lebron is gonna pull a Shaq and start rapping, "Phil is my father, because my biological didn't bother."

Men in these situations are always perplexed when the children they abandoned are upset and bitter, but it is a difficult thing to go through. I know people this has happened to and it deeply wounded and crushed them, not having a dad in their life. They feel like they missed out and it was somehow their fault the parent left, when it was not.

The key for men in such situations, who wish to be apart of their kids lives after not being there, is to be apologetic, understanding, patient, discreet and supportive, not go public with private details and ask for money, causing further distress.

Jaycee Lee Dugard Obtains $20 Million Settlement

Rape victim, Jaycee Lee Dugard, 30, has received a $20,000,000 settlement from the State of California, due to their criminal negligence that allowed a pedophile and his wife, to kidnap, abuse, repeatedly rape and impregnate her, over the course of 18 years.

As a minor, Dugard bore Phillip Garrido two children, who are ages 15 and 12. They were forced to live in his backyard like pets. The parole system failed in allowing a criminal that was not rehabilitated to roam free, without proper supervision.

No amount of money will ever compensate for what Dugard went through. She was robbed of many years of her life, youth, dignity and privacy.

Rick Ross Sued For Stealing Name And Image


Rick Ross

Miami rapper, Rick Ross, has been sued by notorious drug dealer, incarcerated felon, "Freeway" Ricky Ross. The Miami MC famously took the drug dealer's name, image and likeness and used it to launch a fairly successful rap career.

The only problem for the rapper is in America there is such a thing as image rights. "Freeway" Ricky Ross is entitled to what is known as the Right Of Publicity, meaning he and only he, has the right to profit from his name and image. When he has passed, that right goes to his heirs.

To use his real life image as a persona for a rap career and credibility, is a violation of his legal rights. You are an impersonator, pretending to be the real thing and in music that defeats the purpose of having credibility. As such, the cocaine trafficker has sued the Miami rapper.

"Freeway" Ricky Ross

Thus far, Judge Percy Anderson, has not granted an injunction barring the release of Ross' forthcoming album, but under the law, he owes the felon financial damages and should cease and desist exploiting his name and image for financial gain.

Under the circumstances, you cannot take someone's name and image and turn it into entertainment for profit. You are infringing on their life, which is illegal.

The damages are multiplied, as you are disseminating this work and persona not your own, all over the world, violating international image laws as well.

Side Bar: "Freeway" Ricky Ross appeared in the eye-opening documentary "American Drug War." He spoke about the CIA and Oliver North, as did numerous other individuals, from drug dealers to former DEA agents.

I still have not gotten over that documentary. It's pretty messed up when you find out the CIA flooded the streets of Compton, California with drugs they imported into America.

Viacom Loses $1 Billion Case Against YouTube


Viacom has lost its copyright infringement case against video site YouTube. The judge stated the massive website did not violate Viacom's copyrights. Though, the Judiciary Report is no fan of Hollywood (i.e. Sony, Warner Bros., Universal ect), as they are horrible, unconscionable thieves themselves, with all due respect, the judge's decision is very flawed and illegal, as it strikes down the Copyright Act, Digital Millennium Act and the Berne Convention, with no legislative authority to do so.

The U.S. Copyright Act has a "Fair Use" clause that permits people to use the copyrights of others under certain circumstances, but there are limits. For example, one can use published photos or excerpts of articles to discuss a news event, as that is permitted. However, one cannot take another's whole copyrighted works and exploit them for financial gain without permission. That is completely illegal under U.S. and international law.

The Judiciary Report loves YouTube, as it is a great, entertaining website, when it is in compliance with the law, streaming videos that are furnished with the consent of the copyright holder.

However, the fact remains, on any given day, one can find illegally uploaded songs, movies and television shows, in their entirety on YouTube, posted without the consent of the copyright holder, eliminating the need to buy them at official outlets. That has got to stop. It defeats the purpose of having a Copyright or Copyright Office.

If it continues, all the labels and studios will simply close and there will be no entertainment, as they are not going to do this for free, having no revenue to pay staff and underwrite the necessary production and marketing costs. That judge's decision needs to be tossed like Britney Spears' bad weave.

Michael Jackson

An old, unpublished photo of the late pop singer, Michael Jackson, from his "Invincible" CD is up for auction. He looked sad in the photo, revealing he was unhappy, as many had suspected for years.

Michael Jackson's dad Joe, has initiated litigation against Dr. Conrad Murray, the doctor who irresponsibly and negligently over-medicated the singer, in acts that culminated into an overdose and heart failure.

Murray continues to practice medicine, which under the circumstances, he should not. While I'm not a doctor, I could never fathom giving anyone that much medication in less than 24 hours. I would rather have quit my job, as anyone that knows anything about pharmacology should be able to tell you, it was a recipe for disaster and death.

Obama To Meet With BP

U.S. President Barack Obama

U.S. President Barack Obama is slated to meet with BP for the first time this week, in reference to the oil spill that occurred in the waters off the state of Louisiana in America. The President has been slammed in the press for his handling of the crisis, with many demanding he do more.

The Judiciary Report is of the belief, all involved should be held accountable, as that is the nature of liability law. BP is shouldering all the blame for work they outsourced to Halliburton and Transocean, who have been silent during this environmental disaster, is not just.

Both companies are quite wealthy and should pay their fair share in damages as well, as they oversaw the drilling and implementation of the well that has sprung an unprecedented leak, polluting the ocean.

Jamaican PM Suing ABC News For Defamation


Bruce Golding

Jamaican Prime Minister, Bruce Golding, has initiated legal action against ABC News, stating they have defamed him in a widely disseminated broadcast, accusing him of being associated with drug fugitive, Christopher Michael Coke A/K/A "Dudus."

The FBI/DOJ's poorly handled extradition request for the drug suspect, has resulted in the deaths of 73 Jamaican police officers, military and civilians.

ABC has been left stranded in the lurch, as the anonymous U.S. State Department source they cited in their article, has abandoned them, as it has been reported in the Jamaica Observer newspaper, "US State Department officials later denied knowledge of such a document saying instead they were working with the Jamaican prime minister in crime prevention in the island."

If Golding files suit against ABC News in Britain, as the article was carried there as well, it will be much easier to prove damages, due to the fact libel laws in the United Kingdom are more favorable to Plaintiffs. Many high profile people in a variety of cases, have filed suit in Britain as a result.

Bruce legal action over ABC 'Dudus' story

Wednesday, June 09, 2010 - LAWYERS representing Prime Minister Bruce Golding have written to United States-based news network ABC seeking redress for a recent newscast referring to Golding as a ‘criminal affiliate’ of Christopher ‘Dudus’ Coke.

"It is being pursued as we speak," Information Minister Daryl Vaz told journalists at today’s post cabinet press briefing held at Jamaica House. Vaz added that a statement was issued by the prime minister this week and legal action was being pursued by him “on a personal basis”...

Golding subsequently dismissed the ABC report as "extremely offensive", and charged that efforts to link him personally with the alleged drug kingpin, were “clearly part of a conspiracy to undermine the duly elected government of Jamaica”...

Shaq Challenges Lawsuit Of Ex-Mistress

Shaunie and Shaquille O'Neal

According to Orange County, Florida court records, NBA basketball player, Shaquille O'Neal, has filed a "motion to dismiss" in the case brought against him by former mistress, Vanessa Lopez, who is being represented by well-known attorney, Gloria Allred.

Considering her lawyer's stature in legal and court circles, the Judiciary Report would be surprised if the case was tossed that easily. Her allegations of harassment, may pose a challenge for O'Neal's lawyers as well, as Lopez alleged Shaq's friend and sister threatened her, after she allegedly became pregnant by him, in a false alarm, during his marriage to Shaunie O'Neal, of the television show "Basketball Wives."

Reports have since surfaced tarnishing Lopez's character, as she has slept with a number of basketball players, used the credit card of one, Kenyon Martin, without permission, racking up nearly $8,000 in unauthorized charges and conspired with O'Neal's wife, according to Radar Online, to enable the latter to gain a greater divorce settlement and higher alimony payments.

Vanessa Lopez

The Judiciary Report is of the opinion, money truly is the root of all evil, as the Bible states, as all this chaos is based in greed. Shaquille needs to be careful of who he allows into his life, as his reputation for being a charitable person, clearly has made him a target.

It would be beneficial if this case was settled before it went to court, as the Plaintiff is using intimate information issued in private, as her trump card, threatening to go public with the details of O'Neal's life, to drag him down. That's extortion.

Ms. Lopez was knowingly having an affair with a married man, while having sex with other NBA basketball players. She issued threats against married O'Neal, when he was not thrilled about a pregnancy by her, which was a false alarm or a lie, then became surprised when his sister threatened her back and an alleged associate began calling her.

The contact on both ends needs to desist. Having written that, if the Judiciary Report was on that jury, Mrs. Lopez would not get a dime in this case, as she knew her conduct was not above board, in the same manner she alleges against the Defendants and she, like many other groupies, shows a penchant for taking money not their own (Kenyon Martin).

Suge Knight Arrested Again

Suge Knight

Los Angeles street gang member and former Death Row Records "gansta rap" mogul, Suge Knight, 45, has been arrested in California on weapons charges, accused of pointing a gun at another man and driving on a suspended license. He was taken into custody by the Los Angeles Police Department. Knight is proclaiming innocence in the matter.

Knight has had a number of run-ins with the authorities, which include assault, battery, tax evasion and weapons charges. Knight, a member of the Bloods street gang, was also suspected of ordering the murder of a police officer that began having an affair with his wife during their separation. The Los Angeles police officer was gunned down in the driveway of the Hollywood mansion Knight used to share with his wife.

The Notorious B.I.G.

When someone orders a hit in the entertainment industry, it often involves making music or movies. Not so with Knight. He is the prime suspect blamed for ordering the hit that killed New York rapper, the Notorious B.I.G., born Christopher Wallace.

During his reign at Death Row Records, which was swindled from producer, Dr. Dre, born Andre Young, Knight was accused of a number of assaults against artists, executives and a music engineer. He also assaulted Miami rapper Vanilla Ice, physically forcing him to relinquish $4,000,000 in music publishing royalties.

Kanye West

Knight is currently embroiled in a civil suit, which he filed against Chicago rapper, Kanye West. Knight showed up uninvited to a party on Miami Beach at the Shore Club, hosted by West and was shot on the premises by an unknown assailant.

Legally, Knight can sue for being injured on the club via a gunshot, invoking inadequate security in his claims. However, Knight's violent rap sheet could throw a wrench into the proceedings, if introduced into the case by the defendant.

The Shore Club

If defendant West can successfully prove Knight was uninvited and it should be easily demonstrable that a certain element of violence follows him, the case will prove unsuccessful for Knight. They will simply claim Knight forced his way in through intimidation and brought that element to the club with him, via one of his ongoing industry feuds, where he has violently attacked others.

Knight has had so many brushes with death. It is time he changed his ways and became a better human being in the Lord's sight. These chances at redemption will not go on indefinitely.

Guns N' Roses Frontman Sues Manager

The Decay That Is Rock N Roll Burnout

Guns N' Roses

Guns N' Roses frontman, Axl Rose, has sued legendary music manager, Irving Azoff, for exploitation and sabotage, regarding the failure of the aforementioned band's comeback record "Chinese Democracy." Sabotage is common in the music industry and very counter-productive on both ends.

Years of taking drugs and singing destructive songs such as "Sympathy For The Devil" has left the Guns N Roses frontman, Axl, a shell of his former self. So much so, the musician became a complete recluse in Malibu, California and began experimenting with unsound alternative religions and new age mysticism that did additional harm to an already damaged rock star.

In their hay day, Guns N' Roses were a big draw, due to songs such as "Welcome To The Jungle" "Sweet Child O' Mine" "Don't Cry" and "November Rain." Big hair and big guitar riffs launched them to stardom, but destroyed them personally in the process.

The 1980s were a time of excess and glamour and Guns N' Roses, like many other bands, indulged in the trappings of fame that were actually pitfalls. Rose found it increasingly difficult to work and withdrew. Along the way many tried to exploit the band financially, using many schemes and bad ideas to achieve said goal.

7-Year-Old Killed By Police During Raid

Aiyana Jones

7-year-old Aiyana Jones was shot and killed by police, during a raid on the duplex her family resides in, as a 34-year-old man was arrested in an upstairs apartment, but not charged. The incident occurred in Detroit, Michigan in the United States.

The Detroit Police hurled an incendiary device through the window, then fired a shot into the ground floor unit, killing the child. The family contends the police deliberately fired the shot, while law enforcement states it was an accident.

The public is not sure what to believe, as a child should not lose their life, under any circumstances, during a police raid. As such, the police should be required to pay substantial financial damages to Aiyana's family, who have filed two lawsuits against them.

The police maintain they had warrants for both apartments and witnessed a resident visiting both units. However that does not justify in the least, the tragic loss of life that has occurred.

School Slammed In Webcam Spy Case

Blake Robbins, 15, and family were spied on in their home by his school

U.S. District Judge, Jan E. DuBois, has granted the FBI access to the 58,000 images the Lower Merion School District secretly snapped of their students at home, via webcam spyware installed on laptops issued to kids attending Harriton High in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. The name of the case is Blake Robbins v. Lower Merion School District. People all over the internet continue to slam the school for this severe privacy breach.

The FBI intends to review the evidence to ascertain whether any laws have been broken. Due to this terrible case, the U.S. Congress has finally proposed legislation, the Surreptitious Video Surveillance Act, to increase prison penalties for those that illegally spy on people in their homes or rented properties, as there is a reasonable expectation to privacy in said situations.

Considering the FBI engages in the same misconduct against certain citizens, such as innocent journalists, bloggers and scientists, the Judiciary Report would be surprised if they brought charges in this case, which are very warranted.

The school district has admitted they did indeed secretly capture thousands of images of students and their families in their homes. The lawyer for Blake Robbins believes, as the Judiciary Report does, some of the evidence showing people secretly photographed in their homes whilst nude, was destroyed by the perverted school IT techs.

It takes an exceptionally nasty, perverse and mentally ill person to secretly spy on someone in their home, as it is a sheer abomination that denotes voyeurism.

FBI agents and prosecutors want to review the images to see whether any laws were broken when school district employees activated a tracking system that snapped photos and copied screen images from lost or stolen laptops.

Lower Merion school officials have acknowledged poor planning and oversight led the tracking system to capture at least 50,000 images - some showing teens or their relatives in their homes - from laptops that had already been returned to students...

Aretha Franklin's Hat Files Lawsuit


Aretha Franklin singing: ooh, somebody's gonna get sued!

The eye-catching hat legendary singer, Aretha Franklin, wore to the inauguration of U.S. President, Barack Obama, is the subject of a lawsuit, filed by milliner, Luke Song, as numerous rip-offs of his original creation have been released in the marketplace.

As it is his original design, he is the one that is legally entitled to profit from it. The companies that pilfered it should pay damages for stealing, as such conduct is unethical and unfair.

Queen Of Soul Hat Suit

Milliner sues over knockoffs of Aretha Franklin inauguration chapeau - MAY 10--The Michigan milliner who created the hat worn by Aretha Franklin to President Barack Obama's inauguration has filed a federal lawsuit against competitors for knocking off the distinctive design.

In a U.S. District Court complaint filed Friday, Luke Song claims that his "lavish and ornate" creation "gained instantaneous fame and notoriety, attracting much more media attention than even Aretha Franklin's performance itself" at the January 2009 ceremony.

In the wake of the grey hat's stirring debut, Song alleges, the item has been improperly copied and sold by several firms with which he had previously done business...
