    Vondran Legal® - Sports Infringement Law. Understanding the legal damages you may face for having publicly displayed a boxing match at your commercial establishment without the proper commercial license.There are THREE LEVELS OF DAMAGES you need to be aware of when you are being accused of illegally intercepting a TV signal, and broadcasting and publicly displaying a commercial UFC fight, or other fight in your commercial establishment, without the proper commercial license.LEVEL ONE DAMAGESStatutory damages of 1-10k.LEVEL TWO DAMAGESThese damages are designed to punish and deter. For Cable display, up to 60k. For satellite, up to 100k. Advertising on facebook, twitter, or instagram can really do your business in here.LEVEL THREE DAMAGESIf the Plaintiff wins in a lawsuit (ex., Joe Hand Promotions, J&J Sports, or G&G Closed Circuit - who appears ready to file a slew of lawsuits in Omaha Nebraska federal courts), these are the damages they will likely seek.Vondran Legal® has been handling these cases for years, and our goal is to settle your case for a LOW FLAT RATE (one time) legal fee that avoids the abuses inherent in firms that bill. In this niche area of federal law, there is no substitute for specific legal experience. Call us at (877) 276-5084 if you received a demand phone call or what we call the "love letter" demanding you pay up.All these levels can really add up. We have your back. VondranLegal.com

  • Overview of G&G Closed Circuit Events Boxing Piracy Cases

    Overview of G&G Closed Circuit Events Boxing Piracy Cases
    Aug 23 2024
    VondranLegal.com - PPV Boxing Piracy Defense. Call (877) 276-5084. We have helped many bars, restaurants and business owners defend and settle these cases.Receiving a demand letter from G&G Closed Circuit Events, Inc. for illegally broadcasting a commercial pay-per-view boxing event is a serious matter that requires immediate attention. G&G Closed Circuit Events is a company, similar to Joe Hand Promotions, that holds exclusive commercial distribution rights for certain sports broadcasts, including boxing and mixed martial arts events. The demand letter will usually detail the specific event that your restaurant allegedly broadcasted without a proper commercial license. The letter often includes:The date and time of the event.Information about how G&G obtained evidence of the unauthorized broadcast (such as through an investigator who visited your establishment).Claims under the Federal Communications Act (FCA), specifically sections 605 and 553, which prohibit unauthorized reception and exhibition of cable or satellite signals.Defending Against the AllegationsIf you choose to contest the claims, you’ll need to hire an attorney experienced in handling these types of cases. Possible defenses might include:Proving that you had a valid commercial license at the time of the broadcast.Demonstrating that the broadcast was unintentional (though this can be difficult to prove).Arguing that the event was broadcast by mistake, perhaps by a third-party contractor without your knowledge or consent.However, courts tend to be strict in these cases, as the unauthorized interception of PPV signals is usually considered intentional and difficult to "accidentally" accomplish.
