"Copyright troll" Richard Liebowitz has his problems - but his law firm is about to win a case (by default) - a hearing is being held now. It involves a Brooklyn-based photographers photo of an arrest for subway assault. Possible thread
The judge asks if the law firm has spoken with anyone at "Sell It Social," the defendant.
Lawyer: Possible Mr. Liebowitz did.
[Before November 25, 2020, presumably].
Sell It Social is out of business. But the web site it's being sued for it still up, lawyer says
Here is the website that the Liebowitz law firm has sued: rebelcircus.com
Lawyer: "I Googled right before this hearing - Rebel Circus does have that address on 43rd Street." He says it has been sued - "by other law firms I might add" - many times.
What have the outcomes been?
Judge: What is the relationship between RebelCircus and "Singer's Room"
[the complaint is about RebelCircus - but Liebowitz' declaration talks about Singer's Room.
Judge diplomatically calls it a typo.
Basically, it was just a reused lawsuit.
Liebowitz Declaration, Paragraph 8 (wrong defendant)
Liebowitz' associate lists nine other times Sell It Social has been sued @SDNYLIVE.
Inner City Press just looked up the most recent, Hirsh v. Sell It Social, 20-cv-153 --
Liebowitz was awarded $12.352.50. Default judgment; $1912.50 in attorney's fees

AUSA: We have requested a stay, to try to work out a disposition.
Greenwood's lawyer: Correct. Plus, we're going through a lot of discovery material. Meeting my client is difficult, given the circumstances. I don't know how the jail permits who gets visits
Greenwood's lawyer Barket: I had a few visit, then they stopped. I have three or four other clients in the facility and I can't meet any of them. We speak on the phone - once - and setting up the video conferencing has been difficult. It was easier in the summer

Closing arguments still going. Lot of talk of imputed knowledge; Judge Furman asks if there's any excited utterance showing the defendants knew something was wrong, even before Citibank notified them. Judge Furman also asks why Citibank didn't get a grace period
