Any updates on the big DAZ lawsuit?

Last I read about it was back in 2006.

Does this have anything to do with e-Frontier divesting themselves of Poser?

    It's a surprisingly common event. Hell last froze over on January 31, 2019. That's just nine months ago. https://www.nbcnews.com/video/hell-michigan-freezes-over-in-polar-vortex-1435213891785

    I believe it's a plot to convince people global warming isn't real.

  • Quite profound and well written articleyes

  • Hmm. David and Hiro didn't join the lawsuit, and blamed DAZ. DAZ doesn't make Davids and Hiros anymore. I'm just saying.

    cheeky

  • so is this why I have had so many images removed that are cheeky naughty wink wink type because they are worried Vicky and co might get embarrissed and upset. Do we know have to get written consent signed by her and the others.

    Sadly for Vicky, she has been typecast with that stigma over her ever since, and some might say her career bottomed out in House Party. She may not brandish a sword in this game, but there are a lot of things she does swing around. <.<

    "I feel so violated," Victoria was quoted as saying at a press conference. "I was told that my likeness would be used in ART. Instead, I find countless pictures of me naked spread all over the Internet. Some of them, I'm augmented so bad, it's grotesque! I can't go anywhere without someone asking me 'Hey, aren't you that naked chick? You know the one in the temple with the sword?' I am a serious model and actress, do you have any idea what this has done to my career?"

    Made it last 13 more years? wink

    Wile E. Coyote vs. ACME Company

    Wile E. Coyote, Plaintiff -v.- Acme Company, Defendant

    Opening statement of Mr. Harold Schoff, attorney for Mr. Coyote:

    My client, Mr. Wile E. Coyote, a resident of Arizona and contiguous states, does herein bring suit for damages against the Acme Company, manufacturer and retail distributor of assorted merchandise, incorporated in Delaware and doing business in every state, district, and territory.

    Mr. Coyote seeks compensation for personal injuries, loss of business income, and mental suffering caused as a direct result of the actions and/or gross negligence of said company, under Title 15 of the United States Code, Chapter 47, section 2072, subsection (a), relating to product liability.

    Mr. Coyote states that on eighty-five separate occasions he has purchased of the Acme Company (hereinafter, "Defendant"), through that company's mail-order department, certain products which did cause him bodily injury due to defects in manufacture or improper cautionary labeling.  Sales slips made out to Mr. Coyote as proof of purchase are at present in the possession of the Court, marked Exhibit A. Such injuries sustained by Mr. Coyote have temporarily restricted his ability to make a living in his profession of predator.  Mr. Coyote is self-employed and thus not eligible for Workmen's Compensation.

    Mr. Coyote states that on December 13th he received of Defendant via parcel post one Acme Rocket Sled.  The intention of Mr. Coyote was to use the Rocket sled to aid him in pursuit of his prey.  Upon receipt of the Rocket Sled, Mr. Coyote removed it from its wooden shipping crate and, sighting his prey in the distance, activated the ignition.  As Mr. Coyote gripped the handlebars, the Rocket Sled accelerated with such sudden and precipitate force as to stretch Mr. Coyote's forelimbs to a length of fifty feet. Subsequently, the rest of Mr. Coyote's body shot forward with a violent jolt, causing severe strain to his back and neck and placing him unexpectedly astride the Rocket Sled. Disappearing over the horizon at such speed as to leave a diminishing jet trail along its path, the Rocket Sled soon brought Mr. Coyote abreast of his prey. At that moment the animal he was pursuing veered sharply to the right. Mr. Coyote vigorously attempted to follow this maneuver but was unable to, due to poorly designed steering on the Rocket Sled and a faulty or nonexistent braking system. Shortly thereafter, the unchecked progress of the Rocket Sled brought it and Mr. Coyote into collision with the side of a mesa.

    Paragraph One of the Report of Attending Physician (Exhibit B), prepared by Dr. Ernest Grosscup, M.D., D.O., details the multiple fractures, contusions, and tissue damage suffered by Mr. Coyote as a result of this collision.  Repair of the injuries required a full bandage around the head (excluding the ears), a neck brace, and full or partial casts on all four legs.

    Hampered by these injuries, Mr. Coyote was nevertheless obliged to support himself. With this in mind, he purchased of Defendant as an aid to mobility one pair of Acme Rocket Skates....

    Mr. Wile E. Coyote is now represented by the law firm of Dewey, Cheatem, and Howe!

  • I think it was settled out of court... The judge said her motives were devoid of relative substance. Iray has shed new light on the "intentions", as she now poses, in broad daylight, half naked, everywhere! However, since then, no-one has looked for Waldo and now he is forever lost.

    From magnetic birdseed to dynamite darts,
    I could buy General Mills with what I spend on parts,
    But I'll get that Road-Runner if it's the last thing I do.
