70c-20Owi
This photographic work was used by Defendant without obtaining licenses or
consent from Plaintiff, thus constituting copyright infringement by violating his
exclusive rights as the copyright owner to reproduce, adapt, display, distribute,
and/or create derivative works under 17 U.S.C.
$$
100 et. seq. A true and correct
copy of the photographic work at issue registered by Plaintiff is attached hereto as

16, from the photographic work at issue for Defendant's uses of that photographic

Defendant, Plaintiffs counsel atthat time and Defendant exchanged

70c-20Owi
This unauthorized use, shown in Exhibit"C",continued for about two (2) years by
Defendant after receiving notice of Plaintiff's copyright and cease and desist
demand and without licenses or consent, thus constituting willful infringement by
violating Plaintiff's exclusive rights as the copyright owner to reproduce, adapt,
display, distribute, and/or create derivative works under 17 U.S.C.
S$
100 et. seq.
as well as an intentional violation of the Digital Millennium Copyright Act by

8
Case 1:14-cv-00298 Document 1 Filed OOl27lLA Page 9 of 15 PagelD #: 9

This use began in 2010 and continued for about two (2) years by Defendant after
receiving notice of Plaintiff's copyright and cease and desist demand and without
licenses or consent, thus constituting willful infringement by violating Plaintiff's
exclusive rights as the copyright owner to reproduce, adapt, display, distribute,
and/or create derivative works under 17 U.S.C.
$$
100 et. seq. as well as an
intentional violation of the Digital Millennium Copyright Act by distributing the
photographic work at issue knowing that Plaintiff's copyright management
information had been removed or altered without his authority or the authority of
the law. A true and correct copy of a screenshot of Defendant's infringing uses are
attached hereto as Exhibit'0D."
22. Defendant's use of Plaintiff s photographic work at issue on its
Facebook.com commercial web page has contributed to widespread distribution of
Case 1:14-cv-00298 Document 1 Filed O6l27lt4 Page 10 of 15 PagelD #: lO
the photographic work absent his copyright management information because users
who view Defendant's Facebook.com commercial
posting can easily distribute
Defendant's use of that photographic work without Plaintiff s copyright
management information among other Facebook.com users by clicking on the
"Like" button, "Comment" button or "Share" button associated with Defendant's
commercial posting of the photographic work. Each "Like," "Comment," or
"Share" action by a user causes Defendant's use of the photographic work to be
distributed among many other users of Facebook.com or promotes Defendant's
Facebook.com commercial web page or its business as the origin and owner of
Plaintiff s photographic work, effectively advertising Defendant's business and
brand as well as the photographic work absent Plaintiff s copyright management
information.
23. Plaintiff and Defendant were unable to resolve this matter,
thus necessitating legal action.
FIRST CAUSE OF ACTION:
COPYRIGHT INFRINGEMENT
24. Plaintiff restates and realleges each of the allegations contained
in paragraphs 1-23 as if fully stated herein.
25. Plaintiff has all rights, title, and interest in the copyright to the

licensed to Defendant.
10
Case 1:14-cv-00298 Document 1 Filed OOl271L4 Page 11 of 15 PagelD #: LL
26. Defendant has misappropriated Plaintiff s copyrighted
photographic work with knowledge that the photographic work at issue did not
belong to Defendant and continued to use the photographic work despite Plaintiff s
notice of copyright and demand that Defendant cease and desist; Defendant
thereby willfully engaged in unauthoized use, copying, distribution, andlor display
of Plaintiff s copyrighted photographic work on its said commercial web pages.
Defendant's acts constitute willful copyright infringement under the United States
Copyright Act, 17 U.S.C.
$$
101 et. seq.
27 . Defendant's unlawful use of copies of Plaintiff s original
photographic work has diminished the value of the original photographic work by
distributing and encouraging redistribution of the photographic work without
identifying the photographic work as being the exclusive property of Plaintiff.
28. Defendant's unlawful acts have been and are interfering with
and undermining Plaintiff's ability to market Plaintiff's own original photographic
work, thereby impairing the value and prejudicing the sale or license by Plaintiff of
his own photographic work.
29. Defendant, by its unauthorized appropriation and use of
Plaintiff's original photographic work, has been and is engaging in acts of unfair
competition, unlawful appropriation, unjust enrichment, wrongful deception of the
11
Case 1:14-cv-00298 Document 1 Filed O6l27lt4 Page t2 of !5 PagelD #: t2
purchasing public, and unlawful trading on Plaintiff's goodwill and the public
acceptance of Plaintiff's original photographic work.
30. Because Defendant used Plaintiff's copyrighted photographic
work without license, infringing the exclusive rights of Plaintiff as the copyright
owner, Plaintiff is entitled to have the infringing publications and any improperly
acquired likenesses or images (however stored or recorded) impounded while this
action is pending.
31. As a direct and proximate result of Defendant's wrongful acts,
Plaintiff has suffered and continues to suffer lost profits and damages.
32. Plaintiff is entitled to recover from Defendant the damages he
has sustained as a result of these wrongful acts. Plaintiff is presently unable to
ascertain the full extent of the monetary damages he has suffered by reason of
Defendant's acts of copyright infringement.
33. Plaintiff is further entitled to recover from Defendant any gains,
profits, or advantages Defendant has obtained as a result of its wrongful acts.
Plaintiff is presently unable to ascertain the full extent of the gains, profits, and
advantages Defendant has realized by its acts of copyright infringement.
34. Plaintiff is entitled to elect to recover from Defendant statutory
damages for each of its willful violations of Plaintiff's copyrights.
12
Case L:L4-cv-00298 Document 1 Filed OOl27lL4 Page 13 of 15 PagelD #: L3
35. Plaintiff is further entitled to costs and reasonable attorneys'
fees.
SECOND CAUSE OF ACTION:
DIGITAL MILLENNIUM COPYRIGHT ACT VIOLATIONS
36. Plaintiff restates and realleges each of the allegations contained
in paragraphs 1-35 as if fully stated herein.
37. Defendant intentionally removed or altered copyright
management information from association with the photographic work for
Defendant's infringing uses, or distributed the photographic work at issue knowing
that Plaintiff's copyright management information had been removed or altered,
without the authority of Plaintiff or the law, knowing, or having reasonable
grounds to know, that the removal or distribution would induce, enable, facilitate,
or conceal inlringement of copyright.
38. Defendant's acts constitute violations under the Digital
Millennium Copyright Act, 17 U.S.C.
S
1202.
39. Plaintiff is entitled to a preliminary and permanent injunction to
prevent Defendant from engaging in further violations of L7 U.S.C.
9
L202.
40. Plaintiff is entitled to recover from Defendant the actual
damages suffered by Plaintiff and any profits Defendant has obtained as a result of
its wrongful acts that are not taken into account in computing the actual damages.
