Righthaven agrees to turn hard drives over to creditor

(1/1)

Robert Krausankas (BuddhaPi):
as Vegas copyright company Righthaven LLC appears eager to comply with the latest court order entered against it Tuesday, as noncompliance could cost its CEO a fine of $500 per day.

U.S. Magistrate Judge Peggy Leen in Las Vegas, ruling during a hearing, ordered Righthaven to turn over to a creditor hard drives from its computers so the creditor could determine if Righthaven has any assets that can be liquidated for the benefit of Righthaven’s creditors.

She gave Righthaven two weeks to surrender the drives or mirror images of them and said noncompliance would result in a daily sanction of $500 against the company and its CEO.

After the hearing, Righthaven CEO and Las Vegas attorney Steven Gibson fired off a letter to Righthaven’s attorney, Shawn Mangano, ordering him to comply with the directive.

“You are hereby instructed to follow without any departure whatsoever every aspect of the order made today in the case, just as you have been instructed to follow every previous order of every court,” Gibson wrote in the letter.

It appeared that Gibson sent the letter, with a copy to the judge, as an insurance policy, as Mangano had earlier told Leen he’d be happy to arrange the turnover of the drives to the creditor.

Yeah, right.

And pigs can fly...

And hyenas will choose to eat a tofu salad instead of a zebra steak.
