Higbee's Greatest Courtroom Hits
« on: September 30, 2017, 04:58:10 PM »
So check out this Motion to Strike Higbee filed in a case. You might notice the parties listed on page 2 Under I. are not the parties in this case. Cut & Paste gone wrong. How embarrassing for him.

Now this. Higbee was trying to avoid leaving his desk in California on this case, using hired local guns instead. I guess the judge got tired of it, he ended up getting an order to personally appear lol

Then when the conference finally happens, I guess the judge felt sorry for the guy and let him appear by phone instead of in person.

My comments inline...  You too can have the Higbee lawyers represent you with their excellent attention to detail. :) This is what happens if you decide to go public with the lawsuit. Many more eyes looking and scrutinizing.

LOL! They can't seem to figure out who the plaintiff really is. Is it Leif Skoogfors or Christopher Sadowski? And how about "CONNIE BRANABA & ASSOCIAATES, INC." an obvious TYPO of Associates.

Actually, what I found interesting is this.

... Christopher Sadowski will give BackChina information about (a) the sale of the photograph - to whom it was licensed, for how much, and the market data; and (b) the top five selling photographs for the preceding five year.

It seems to me Sadowski will actually have to JUSTIFY his claim amounts, not just the cookie-cutter $5,000 in the Higbee letters.

I'm a non-lawyer but not legally ignorant either. Under the 1st Amendment, I have the right to post facts & opinions using rhetorical hyperbole, colloquialisms, metaphors, parody, snark, or epithets. Under Section 230 of CDA, I'm only responsible for posts I write, not what others write.

I wonder if any of the disbarred lawyers from the Prenda firm work at Higbee.

Case in point. Here are two links for the same image:
http://stock-photos.nyphotographic.com/tablet-dictionary/authentic/
http://thebluediamondgallery.com/tablet-dictionary/a/authentic.html

The first web site belongs to the photographer Higbee represents and that site demands a license fee.

The second site lists the same photo for free under creative commons licensing. I image a lot of people see "free", do not notice the requirement for attribution, and later get a call from Higbee.

Perhaps not an outright scam like the Prenda operation, but it does call into question some things, not the least of which is that by setting-up the creative commons site, Google and Bing search engines flag the image as "labeled for reuse".
