OK... most of what I read in there is repetitious stuff, and some of it, I don't even understand what they're saying. What it looks like to me is, SC is still suing Expressway Music (Dave Zwirsky), but it sounds like Dave had counter-sued them. I remember that SC hit several KJs (as a business and as individuals) in NY almost 2 years ago, and I never heard anything more of it. I live in NY, and knew a good chunk of the names they had listed back then, and Expressway Music was one of them. As for others that were named in SC's lawsuits 2 years ago, as far as I know, they're still in business, and operating as if nothing ever happened.

Cue, they could have complied and look like nothing's different (other than their wallets).

If that were true, you'd see more than just 2 names listed on SC's website under the Certified KJs in NY.

Not necessarily. Being listed on SC's website is optional.

I'm not going to make a substantive comment on that case, but just so you understand procedurally what has happened...

SC sued Expressway Music (among others). Because of some issues with the law firm handling it--specifically, with APS not paying the attorney as required by APS's contract with SC--Expressway was voluntarily dismissed along with other defendants, without prejudice.

Not content to wait to be sued again, Expressway filed a declaratory judgment lawsuit (as is its right) seeking a declaration from the court that they did not commit acts of trademark infringement and unfair competition.

SC answered the complaint and has filed counterclaims that amount to the same claims that it voluntarily dismissed before.

Thank you for that response Mr. Harrington. That clears it up a little for me.

I would think that with 20 plus KJs listed in that lawsuit (from 2 years ago), at least 1 of them would want to be listed as (now being) legit (assuming they settled with SC). The 2 names that are listed on their site right now have been there before that lawsuit was started (listing the NY KJs).
