The Eastern District of New York federal judge wrote today:

“the motion picture Mechanic: Resurrection [] was quite a good movie, (but I am a sucker for both Tommy Lee Jones and Jason Statham films, and this has both)”

ME2 Productions Memorandum on Default 17-cv-01196 NY

 

Judge Brian M. Cogan then awarded ME2 Productions a default judgment against the defendant in the amount of $10,000.

ME2 Productions Default order $10000 17-cv-01196 NY

 

A number of defendants were dismissed without settling, so we are curious why ME2 Productions went so hard after this particular defendant. Maybe it was because ME2 Productions allegedly
sent him 16 cease and desist notices under the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (“DMCA”), 17 U.S.C. § 1201 et seq.

A copy of the Subpoena will probably be enclosed.

If you are the account holder for an internet service provider (ISP), your name is linked to an IP address.
