Suicide Girls suing Lithium Picnic
 
Anybody else been following this...

A few friends and acquaintances close to me have been involved and have similar troubles... what's your take on the ordeal...

Quote:

Hi everyone,

This is Apnea with some not-so-happy news.

As a result of the ongoing pressure and financial losses incurred from defending against Sean Suhl of SuicideGirl's $100,000 lawsuit against Philip for shooting me for my site apneatic and the emotional stress and damage this has done to his business, Philip is taking the Lithium Picnic site offline until further notice.

I've taken it over for now so he can focus his time and resources on his case and raising funds. Please contact him at lithiumpicnic at gmail dot com if you have a paid project that you would like to discuss with him.

SG is now making the preposterous claims that they taught him photography and web design and they are going after the profits of my site. His SG contract very specifically defined single girl sites like mine as an exception to the competition rules but now SG claims my single girl site is a competitor to their empire of over one thousand girls, books, DVDs, radio shows, merchandise, a magazine and television syndication. Entering into litigation over this is costly and takes a lot of time, thousands of dollars a month. SG knows they can outspend him 100 times over and this is likely more about breaking him and locking him into a permanent non-compete than any truth about their claims.

His studio at 1602 Ovid Street Houston TX 77007 and much of his photography gear is for sale, if you are interested in discussing a purchase please contact him at lithiumpicnic at gmail dot com.

If you have recently sent in a model application or contacted him about a shoot please be patient it's unlikely he will be shooting or working on new projects for the next several months.

If you would like to help support his defense, here are a few links:
LP Fundraiser Prints for Sale
LP Fundraiser Shirts for Sale
Apnea's Auctions and Paypal Donation Link
If nothing else please help spread the word, post and link to this page.

Stay tuned for more links to auctions - we're auctioning off more clothing and props from our published and well known shoots as well as more photography gear very soon.

Philip still makes frequent posts and updates on his LiveJournal page. Thanks to everyone who has shown support over the years, especially those that have recently donated or supported us through these rocky times.

We know we are in the right and we won't give up or go away until we are able to live our lives freely and unmolested.

Apnea

lawsuits make the world go 'round

Meh... they pulled the same thing on me when I made a freesite, all links directed straight to their paysite, and yet they stated, I was inappropriately using their content and competing with their paysite.

I'm sure theres alot more to the story that shes telling, and probably pissed because she used to be a SG but went out on her own, and might be miserably failing.

I know i'll never promote her stuff ever again after the way as an affiliate I was treated by her and Lithium. They have no social skills at all, just a snob.

Thank god lawyers won't go broke too often.

SUICIDE

SUCK


BTW, their new lawyer is barely 6 months registered, and doesn't have a clue about dick. It'd be a case worth fighting ;)

Dirty F 06-09-2007 06:58 AM

I hear nothing but bad shit about SG.

Suicide Girls are known for trying to fuck people over with lawsuits.

RawAlex 06-09-2007 08:02 AM

From what I gather, Suicide Girls words their model releases in such a way that they pretty much end up owning the models for the rest of their lives. It is very hard to impossible to follow all the terms and do anything except pose more for SC.

They use lawsuits to hit people over the head. Class act all the way. :(

WarChild 06-09-2007 08:22 AM

If someone was able to fuck my business over with bullshit law suits, well let's just say that's when accidents happen.
