Filing 735 AMENDED JUDGMENT by Judge Otis D.

In the parties October 19, 2001 settlement agreement, Larson (and her family) transfer[red] all of [their] rights to DC, resulting in 100% ownership to D.C. Comics, effective October 19, 2001. Declaration of Daniel M. Petrocelli (Petrocelli Decl.) Ex. B, at 21; Larson, 2013 WL 1113259, at *1. This complete transfer on October 19, 2001, bars certain of Larsons remaining claims in this case and entitles DC to judgment on its Fourth Counterclaim, which seeks a declaration confirming the October 19, 2001 settlement agreement against Larson. The remaining claims are granted, denied, or dismissed as set forth below. Therefore: RE: Plaintiffs Claims (Superman, Case No. CV-04-8400) IT IS ORDERED AND ADJUDGED that Plaintiffs First Claim for Relief in the Superman case, for Declaratory Relief re: Termination, is GRANTED, but only to the extent that it sought a declaration that on April 16, 1999, the Siegels validly terminated under the Copyright Act all prior grants, assignments, or transfers by Jerome Siegel to any of the Defendants, or their predecessors-in-interest, of the renewal copyrights in and to Action Comics, No. 1, as well as Action Comics, No. 4, Superman, No. 1 (pages 36), and the first two weeks of the Superman newspaper strips, and judgment is hereby entered in Plaintiffs favor on this claim as set forth herein. See Superman case, ECF Nos. 293, 560. IT IS FURTHER ORDERED AND ADJUDGED that Plaintiffs Second Claim for Declaratory Relief re: Profits from Recaptured Copyrights, Third Claim for Declaratory Relief re: Use of the Superman Crest, and Fourth Claim for Accounting for Profits in the Superman case are DISMISSED, WITHOUT PREJUDICE, AS MOOT. RE:Plaintiffs Claims (Superboy Case, Case No. CV-04-8776) IT IS ORDERED AND ADJUDGED that Plaintiffs First Claim for Copyright Infringement, Second Claim for Declaratory Relief re: Termination,Third Claim for Violation of the Lanham Act § 43(a)(1)(B), Fourth Claim for Violation of California Business and Professions Code, §§ 17200 et seq., and Fifth Claim for Injunctive Relief in the Superboy case are DISMISSED, WITHOUT PREJUDICE, AS MOOT. RE: DCs Counterclaims (Superman and Superboy Cases) IT IS ORDERED AND ADJUDGED that DCs First Counterclaim, For Declaration That The Superman Notices And The Superboy Notice Are Ineffective,is DENIED WITH PREJUDICE in its entirety in the Superman case and as to Parts(1), (2), and (5) in the Superboy case. See Superman case, ECF Nos. 293, 664(striking parts (3) and (4) from the First Counterclaim in the Superman case).IT IS FURTHER ORDERED AND ADJUDGED that DCs Second Counterclaim, For Declaration That Any Claim By The Siegels For Co-Ownership Of Superman (Including Its Derivative Superboy) Is Barred By The Statute Of Limitations, is DENIED WITH PREJUDICE. See Superman case, ECF No. 293.IT IS FURTHER ORDERED AND ADJUDGED that DCs Fourth Counterclaim, for Declaratory Relief Regarding the [2001 Settlement] Agreement, is GRANTED in part as follows. The Court declares that the parties October 19, 2001 settlement agreement (embodied in Kevin Markss letter of the same date)remains binding and enforceable solely under the terms contained in that agreement. Under that agreement, Larson and her family transferred to DC, worldwide and in perpetuity, any and all rights, title, and interest, including all copyright interests, that they had in Superman and Superboy, effective October 19, 2001. Petrocelli Decl. Ex. B, at 19, 21; Larson, 2013 WL 1113259, at *12. Judgment is hereby entered in DCs favor and against Larson on this counterclaim. IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that DCs Third, Fifth, and Sixth Counterclaims are DISMISSED, WITHOUT PREJUDICE, AS MOOT. (lc) Modified on 6/18/2013 (lc). |
Filing 734 ORDER GRANTING IN PART AND DENYING IN PART PLAINTIFFS MOTION TO AMEND THECOURTS APRIL 18, 2013 JUDGMENT UNDER FEDERAL RULE OF CIVIL PROCEDURE 59(e)LAURA SIEGEL LARSON 731 by Judge Otis D. Wright, II: The Court will not withdraw Section B of its March 20, 2013 summary-judgment order. The Court determines that Section Bfinding that the 2001 Agreement remains an enforceable contract because Larson had not rescinded it and DC had not abandoned itis a necessary prerequisite to the Courts subsequent finding in Section C that the still-valid Agreement had operated to transfer the Siegels Superman rights to DC (the continued legal effect of which depends on the continued enforceability of the Agreement). But, for the well-articulated reasons set forth on pages 19:9 to 22:9 of Plaintiffs moving papers, the Court will enter Plaintiffs proposed amended judgment in Case Nos. 04-CV-8400 and 04-CV-8776.
