June 3, 2016 Opinion or Order Filing 222 STIPULATED FINAL JUDGMENT SUBJECT TO RESERVATION OF RIGHT OF APPEAL: IT IS HEREBY ORDERED, ADJUDGED AND DECREED as follows: This Court has jurisdiction over the parties hereto and over the subject matter in issue, and venue is proper in this District. In the interest of efficiency and judicial economy, Plaintiffs and the ReDigi Parties agree to stipulate to the amount of damages set forth in paragraph 4 below and the form of a final injunction set forth in paragraph 5 below in order to permit this case to proceed to an appeal of the Summary Judgment Order. The relief awarded in paragraphs 4 and 5 below is expressly conditioned on the ReDigi Parties' reservation of their right of appeal as set forth in paragraph 3 below. The parties stipulate that the ReDigi Parties have expressly reserved their right on appeal to challenge solely the judgment of liability for copyright infringement as addressed in the Summary Judgment Order and no other rulings or orders in this case. If the judgment of liability for copyright infringement is reversed or vacated on appeal, wholly or partially, this Stipulated Final Judgment shall be set aside to the extent inconsistent with any such decision on appeal or ruling of this Court on remand. For the purpose of clarity, to the extent the question of the ReDigi Parties' liability for copyright infringement is reversed, reversed in part, or vacated and remanded, in whole or in part, both the damages award and the injunction will be set aside to the extent inconsistent with such a ruling. Otherwise, the parties agree that the provisions of this Stipulated Final Judgment, including the award of damages and injunction set forth in paragraphs 4 and 5, shall be fully binding on all parties. Enforcement of this Stipulated Conditional Final Judgment shall not be stayed pending appeal. Subject to paragraphs 2-3 above, the parties stipulate that the amount of damages awarded to Plaintiffs against the ReDigi Parties jointly and severally shall be three million five hundred thousand dollars ($3,500,000). For purpose of this judgment, the amount of damages is stipulated to be an equal amount for each recording Plaintiffs have accused Defendants of infringing. The parties agree that costs (other than attorneys' fees) shall not be awarded. However, Plaintiffs shall have the right under this Judgment to move for an award of attorneys' fees, provided that the amount of such fees to be sought by Plaintiffs shall be capped at not more than five hundred thousand dollars ($500,000) and the ReDigi Parties shall retain the right to oppose any such motion for an award of attorneys' fees. Nothing contained herein shall have any effect on the right of Plaintiffs or the ReDigi Parties to seek an award of attorneys' fees in connection with the appeal of this Stipulated Conditional Final Judgment or any future proceedings in the District Court that may occur following the entry of this Stipulated Conditional Final Judgment. This Court shall retain continuing jurisdiction over the parties to this Stipulated Conditional Final Judgment and over the subject matter of the Action for the purposes of interpreting and enforcing the terms of this Stipulated Final Judgment, subject to the ReDigi Parties' right of appeal set forth above. (As further set forth in this Stipulated Final Judgment.) (Signed by Judge Richard J. Sullivan on 6/3/2016) (Attachments: # 1 Right to Appeal attachment 1, # 2 Right to Appeal attachment 2)(mro) Modified on 6/8/2016 (mro).

April 18, 2016 Opinion or Order Filing 219 ORDER granting 214 Motion for Protective Order. Please visit the Court's Website at www.nysd.uscourts.gov for Sealed Records Filing Instructions.Now before the Court is a motion brought by Defendant ReDigi Inc. to seal portions of the transcript from a conference that took place before the Court on 4/4/2016. (Doc. No. 214) Accordingly, the Court finds that the parties' interests in resisting disclosure - at least until the Settlement is consummated - outweigh the public's interest in having access to the redacted portions of the transcript. The Court thus grants Defendant ReDigi's very narrow motion to seal portions of the transcript. Accordingly, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED THAT Defendant ReDigi's motion to seal is granted. The Clerk of the Court is respectfully directed to terminate the motion located at docket number 214. (Signed by Judge Richard J. Sullivan on 4/18/2016) (tro)

November 2, 2015 Opinion or Order Filing 178 JOINT CONDITIONAL STIPULATION AS TO LIABILITY: John Ossenmacher and Prof. Larry Rudolph (the "Individual Defendants") and Capitol Records, LLC ("Capitol"), Capitol Christian Music Group, Inc., and Virgin Records IR Holdings, Inc. (collectively, "Plaintiffs") hereby move the Court to enter the following joint stipulation: 1. In the interest of efficiency and judicial economy, the Individual Defendants and Plaintiffs agree that the Individual Defendants will stipulate that the Individual Defendants will waive their right to contest their liability so that this case can proceed to a trial on damages and then to the appeals stage. Nothing in this stipulation is intended to nor should be construed to act as a waiver of the Individual Defendants' right to contest damages or their right to have the jury determine the amount of damages for which the Individual Defendants should be liable. 2. The Plaintiffs and Individual Defendants further stipulate that the Individual Defendants have expressly reserved their rights on appeal to challenge the Court's interlocutory rulings on summary judgment against co-Defendant, ReDigi, Inc. ("ReDigi") (ECF No. 109), the Individual Defendants' motion to dismiss (ECF No. 148), and the affirmative defenses the Individual Defendants sought to assert (ECF No. 175). If the Second Circuit rules in favor of ReDigi and/or the Individual Defendants on any of those issues, the Plaintiffs and the Individual Defendants agree that the Individual Defendants have expressly reserved their right to withdraw from this stipulation so that they may argue any of those issues decided in their favor by the Second Circuit, including liability, on remand, if necessary. If the Second Circuit rules against ReDigi and the Individual Defendants on all of those issues, the Plaintiffs and the Individual Defendants agree that this stipulation may not be withdrawn. 3. This stipulation is in the interest of judicial economy, as neither this Court nor a jury would have to determine the Individual Defendants' liability except in the case of a reversal and remand by the Second Circuit. 4. If the Second Circuit reverses this Court's decision in ECF Nos. 109, 148, or 175, the Plaintiffs and the Individual Defendants agree to file a joint motion for this stipulation to be withdrawn. Plaintiffs agree that in such circumstances, they will not be prejudiced by the withdrawal of this stipulation or the Individual Defendants' ability to contest their liability on remand, if necessary. 5. Plaintiffs and the Individual Defendants agree that res judicata does not apply to this stipulation to prevent the Individual Defendants from contesting their liability or any other issues on remand, if necessary, as this stipulation is expressly conditioned on the outcome of the appeal. For these reasons, the Plaintiffs and the Individual Defendants respectfully ask that the Court enter this conditional stipulation and allow the case to proceed to a trial on the issue of damages. (Signed by Judge Richard J. Sullivan on 10/30/2015) (mro)

March 30, 2013 Opinion or Order Filing 109 MEMORANDUM AND ORDER granting 48 Motion for Partial Summary Judgment; denying 54 Motion for Summary Judgment. At base, ReDigi seeks judicial amendment of the Copyright Act to reach its desired policy outcome. However, "[s]ound policy, as well as history, supports [the Court's] consistent deference to Congress when major technological innovations alter the market for copyrighted materials. Congress has the constitutional authority and the institutional ability to accommodate fully the varied permutations of competing interests that are inevitably implicated by such new technology. Sony, 464 U.S. at 431. Such deference often counsels for a limited interpretation of copyright protection. However, here, the Court cannot of its own accord condone the wholesale application of the first sale defense to the digital sphere, particularly when Congress its If has declined to take that step. Accordingly, and for the reasons stated above, the Court GRANTS Capitol's motion for summary judgment on its claims for ReDigi's direct, contributory, and vicarious infringement of its reproduction rights. The Court also DENIES ReDigi's motion in its entirety. Because issues remain with respect to Capitols performance and display rights and ReDigi's secondary infringement of Capitols common law copyrights, as well as damages, injunctive relief, and attorneys fees. IT IS HEREBY ORDERED THAT the parties shall submit a joint letter to the court no later than April 12, 2013 concerning the next contemplated steps in this case. The Clerk of Court is respectfully directed to terminate the motions pending at Doc. Nos. 48 and 54.(Signed by Judge Richard J. Sullivan on 3/30/2013) (ago) Modified on 4/1/2013 (ago).

February 15, 2012 Opinion or Order Filing 31 CASE MANAGEMENT PLAN AND SCHEDULING ORDER:All parties do not consent to disposition of this case by a Magistrate Judge, pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 636(c).

February 15, 2012 Opinion or Order Filing 30 ORDER: The Court is in receipt of letters from both Plaintiff and Defendant, each dated February 14, 2012, regarding the parties' proposed Case Management Plan. In its letter, Defendant suggests "establish[ing] a firm, publicly known, deadline for the filing of amicus curiae motions [in connection with the parties' summary judgment motions]" and "dispens[ing] with pre-motion conferences for those motions." Plaintiff opposes Defendant's requests. Because Defendant has not demonstrated any facts to overcome the Court's conclusion, as stated in an Order dated February 1, 2012, that the parties are fully capable of raising issues that third parties would raise in amicus curiae briefs and have every incentive to do so, Defendant's requests ARE HEREBY DENIED. The parties' proposed Case Management Plan, as modified by the Court, is set forth in a separate Order. (Signed by Judge Richard J. Sullivan on 2/14/2012) (mro)
February 14, 2012 Opinion or Order Filing 29 ORDER: The Court is in receipt of a letter from Defendant dated February 11, 2012, informing the Court that Rdio, Inc., has terminated Defendant's access to its site and requesting a pre-motion conference in connection with Defendant's contemplated motion for a temporary restraining order and preliminary injunction "towards reinstatement of the Rdio licenses, and for leave to amend the answer to include counterclaim(s)." Defendant's letter-which is barely four sentences long-offers no legal theory or authority whatsoever as a basis for this Court to enjoin a third party from terminating its contractual relationship with Defendant. Accordingly, absent a further submission setting forth the legal bases for its contemplated motion, Defendant's request for a pre-motion conference is HEREBY DENIED. (Signed by Judge Richard J. Sullivan on 2/13/2012) (mro)
