Strike 3 Holdings is filing lawsuits alleging illegal downloads of their adult films produced by Blacked, Tushy, and Vixen. In April 2018 they filed 6 new lawsuits in Nevada.
Antonelli Law has local counsel located across the U.S., including in Nevada, and can represent cases nationwide. Strike 3 Holdings copyright infringement lawsuits are being filed against anonymous defendants for the illegal copy, download, and distribution of their adult films- often using BitTorrent software.
Strike 3 Holdings is alleging that defendants illegally downloaded their adult films produced by Blacked, Tushy, and Vixen.
These downloads are not traced to specific people but to their IP addresses. The copyright infringement lawsuit notification is sent to the holder of the IP address through their internet service providers such as Comcast, Cox, or AT&T.
Strike 3 Holdings claims that defendants downloaded their content without the appropriate licensing fees, probably using BitTorrent software. BitTorrent allows users to share large amounts of data over the internet with a peer-to-peer file transfer system.
After you have received a notification from your ISP you will have a limited amount of time to decide how you’d like to handle the case- typically you’ll have no more than 2 to 4 weeks to respond. Until then, you will remain anonymous and your ISP will not release your name or address to Strike 3 Holdings.
Next Steps after Receiving a Strike 3 Holdings Subpoena
There are several options for moving forward after receiving a Strike 3 copyright infringement lawsuit:
- Resolve it anonymously: Your case can be resolved anonymously from public records and even remain unknown from the movie company and its attorneys. You will most likely have to pay a financial settlement fee to Strike 3 Holdings.
- Filing a motion to quash: You can attempt to demonstrate to the judge that your case has no merit or that the evidence is insufficient. You could possibly still be sued or lose your anonymity if the motion is denied.
- Fight it: You can find an ISP subpoena defense firm such as Antonelli Law to fight your case in court. Our attorneys have nationwide experience and are familiar with the complex and ever-changing technology involved in these copyright infringement cases.

Jeffrey Antonelli is a member of the federal trial bar of the Northern District of Illinois and is admitted to numerous federal courts around the country. He has been a civil litigator nearly 25 years in a broad range of actions representing corporations and individuals as plaintiffs and defendants in state and federal court.
Jeffrey has been interviewed by the media many times, including Bloomberg BNA, NBC, The New York Times, Chicago Lawyer, Chicago Tribune, and the longstanding lawyer’s publication Chicago Daily Law Bulletin.
Prior to forming Antonelli Law Ltd. in 2007 Jeffrey worked for several litigation boutiques in Chicago’s Loop as well as a full service firm. His litigation experience includes hotly contested issues in intellectual property, business, insurance, and consumer fraud. He is an adviser to the Illinois Board of Higher Education Advisory Council for Private Business and Vocational Schools (PBVS), and was a member of the Illinois State Bar Association Education Law Section Council from 2012-2013. Jeffrey is especially proud of his work representing hundreds of students defrauded by improperly accredited educational institutions, including as certified class counsel.
Before attending law school, Jeffrey was interested first in business, and then in biomedical ethics. These interests led him to graduate from the nation’s largest philosophy department at Loyola University in Chicago, where some of his favorite (and most challenging) subjects were cognitive science and philosophy of science. During college he held positions at the University of Chicago’s Ben May Institute; as a medical assistant for a University of Chicago foot and ankle surgeon; and volunteered in the emergency room at the University of Chicago Hospitals. These experiences led to studying health law at the DePaul College of Law where Jeffrey earned his law degree and a certificate in health law. At that time DePaul’s Institute for Health Law was consistently ranked in the top 10 health law specialty programs nationwide.
During law school Jeffrey immersed himself in studying the practical and public policy aspects of health care through internships at the American Medical Association in Chicago, and on Capitol Hill at the Governmental Relations Office of the Association of American Medical Colleges in Washington, DC.
Jeffrey has concentrated in civil litigation throughout his legal career, and is a member of the federal trial bar of the Northern District of Illinois, the Central District of Illinois federal court, and all federal courts of Colorado, Wisconsin, Michigan, and Indiana. In addition, he is a member of the DuPage County Bar Association and the Illinois State Bar Association.
Jeffrey prides himself on his strong personal ideals, passionate, ethical advocacy, and working hard to bring the best possible results for his clients. He also maintains a special interest in cases involving fraud. Whether due to good parenting, his family’s law enforcement employment, undergraduate studies in philosophy including ethics, or a fortuitous outcome of good breeding, one essence of Jeffrey’s character is a drive to root out the truth behind fraudulent practices.
