What Are My Legal Options In A Strike 3 Holdings Lawsuit?

Unsure about how to proceed with your Strike 3 Holdings lawsuit? Antonelli Law is here to help you stay informed and can help you with your legal defense if you choose. Antonelli Law has defended those targeted in the type of lawsuit like the one filed by Strike 3 Holdings LLC for years.

Can I Ignore My Strike 3 Holdings Subpoena?

The first thing to note is that your Strike 3 Holdings subpoena is real. Unfortunately, it is not a scam. You are being sued for copyright infringement in federal court.

Right now, you are known to the court only as John Doe. If you ignore the subpoena, your internet service provider will likely release your name to Strike 3 Holdings LLC’s lawyers. Once Strike 3 Holdings has your name, in almost all cases, they will amend the complaint name in the public court documents from ‘John Doe’ to your name. You will then be served with a court summons.

Under no circumstances should you ever ignore a court summons.

We have found that many clients don’t really mind losing their anonymity, but the downside to ignoring your Strike 3 Holdings subpoena and receiving a summons is that your options moving forward are limited, and you’ll lose some of your negotiating power.

Filing a Motion to Quash, Strike 3 Holdings Lawsuit

Filing a motion to quash tells the court that the complaint is so deficient that it cannot be repaired because of either jurisdictional or technical reasons. Our firm believes a motion to quash can work in certain limited circumstances, but it is a risk.

It’s important to note that while this may seem the best option on the surface, even if you win a motion to quash the subpoena, the movie company will probably have the right to file an amended lawsuit against you.

If they do file an amended lawsuit, a second motion to quash may need to be filed. The judge may or may not throw the case out of court, and it is possible that Strike 3 Holdings LLC may appeal the decision to the appellate court.

The circumstances of each case are unique. Antonelli Law has been successful with multiple motions to quash and can provide expert advice on your case.

Can I Anonymously Settle My Strike 3 Holdings Lawsuit?

Our firm knows that getting sued is a terrible feeling. It can be especially stressful if this is the first time you’ve ever been sued.

When settling with Strike 3 Holdings LLC, it can make the situation go away faster and can buy you some peace of mind. If you settle through Antonelli Law, we will ensure you can settle and make the payment anonymously.

Unfortunately, this also means that you will have to pay a settlement regardless of whether or not you believe you should have to.

We’ve found that many clients feel that the ability to ensure their anonymity and end the process is worth the settlement.

I hired Jeffrey Antonelli to represent me in a copyright infringement case. When I contacted him I had already spoken to another lawyer (also excellent) and Jeff spent a great deal of time with me in his initial free consultation, answering my questions. His knowledge was as or more complete than any other lawyer I spoke to, and his fees were very fair and more reasonable than the other attorney I was considering. He achieved a settlement that was not only $40,000 below what the plaintiff was initially requesting, but $5000 less than what the other attorney estimated the settlement would be. Jeff was pleasant to deal with, calm and friendly, and always answered my emailed questions. If you are looking for a lawyer for a copyright infringement suit, I would talk to several lawyers before deciding on representation, but make sure Jeff Antonelli is one of them.

One of the most important first things to note is that the notice from your ISP about Strike 3 Holdings is real and not a scam. You are likely about to be sued for copyright infringement in federal court.

What Happens When You Ignore A Strike 3 Holdings Subpoena?

Right now, if you have just received your notice, you are known to the court as John Doe. However, if you ignore the subpoena, your internet service provider (ISP, such as Comcast, Verizon, AT&T, etc.) will likely release your name to Strike 3 Holdings LLC’s lawyers.

Once Strike 3 Holdings LLC has your name, in almost all cases, they will amend the complaint name in the public court documents, moving from “John Doe” to your name. You will then be served with a court summons.

Under no circumstances should you ever ignore a court summons.

Some clients let us know that they don’t mind losing their anonymity, but the downside to ignoring your Strike 3 Holdings subpoena and receiving a summons is that your options moving forward are limited, and you’ll lose some of your negotiating power.

What Are Some Options For My Strike 3 Holdings Case?

Whether or not you did it (or whether or not you think you should be penalized), you are still likely to be sued. At this point, the Strike 3 Holdings company believes you did, and the court believes they have enough evidence for the case to continue.

You now have three options available to you:

  • Settle your case out of court
  • File a Motion to Quash
  • Fight back in court

If you do choose to settle, having an attorney experienced in these specific types of copyright infringement cases may help you negotiate a lower Strike 3 Holdings settlement amount.

We will fight for you until your case is resolved entirely and will aggressively negotiate settlement amounts for our clients.

My Strike 3 Holdings Lawsuit Is Real, Now What Do I Do?

Do not sign anything. In any given lawsuit, one should not sign paperwork without understanding fully what they are agreeing to. If one receives something in the mail from Strike 3 Holdings requiring a signature, do not sign it until you have had the chance to consult with an attorney representing you. This is so the individual knows the implications of what you’re signing.

Do not delete anything. Many defendants assume that deleting the content from their devices can help get rid of evidence that they may have downloaded Strike 3 Holding content. However, this is not the case. In fact, if one deletes their content it can end up making one’s penalties worse and appear as an admission of guilt.

Contact a defense attorney with experience in internet service provider subpoenas. Once you are sure you are being sued, you should contact someone who can help guide you through what the next steps may be. The attorneys at Antonelli Law are highly experienced with copyright infringement lawsuits like those filed by Strike 3 Holdings. We can discuss your specific case, go through your options, and help you come up with a plan of what to do next.
