ME2 Productions, Inc., the owner of the rights to the film “Mechanic: Resurrection”, filed five copyright infringement cases against Arizona residents in November of 2016. The Court gave them permission to subpoena the names and addresses of the defendants, and the Internet Service Providers (including Cox Cable) are sending notification letters to subscribers warning them that their identities are being sought by the plaintiff. If you receive a notification from your internet provider, you can call any time and have a free telephone consultation with Attorney Erin Russell at 312-994-2424. Erin handles BitTorrent and copyright infringement cases nationwide and charges the same reasonable flat rate in every state and can help you resolve your Arizona case. Erin has represented many copyright infringement defendants in Arizona.
People tend to get really worried and afraid when they receive one of these letters. Some of them make the mistake of ignoring it. Don’t do that. Getting sued for copyright infringement is to be taken seriously, but it is rarely cause for great alarm. There are a few things you should know before you read any further:
1. This is a manageable problem. You got this. The only mistake you could make would be to ignore the letter you received from your Internet Service Provider. If you think you need to settle, Erin can help you do that and explain your exposure and your options. If you’re sure you didn’t do it, Erin can explain to you your options for proving it.
2. You have very good options either way, and you can choose what happens next in your case.
3. Getting sued for copyright infringement of a single film is not going to ruin you financially. It’s just something you have to be diligent about taking care of so you can get the best possible result.
4. If you act sooner rather than later when you receive a letter from your internet provider, you can avoid having your name disclosed to the plaintiff and can avoid having your name made public on the court’s docket in the case. Your case can be worked out without it affecting your credit or involving public records. The attorneys for ME2 also represent other BitTorrent plaintiffs in Arizona. They do pursue cases against defendants after their identities are disclosed. The best strategy for defendants in these cases is to take action early.
5. Attorney Erin Russell has handled more than a thousand BitTorrent defense cases involving a single film being downloaded. Some of those cases were settled, and some were dismissed outright when we successfully proved the subscriber’s innocence. Erin has won these cases in court and has negotiated fair settlements for many subscribers.
6. Everything will be ok! Tend to this problem promptly and it will be out of your way quickly and quietly.
