Nexon America Inc. vs Ryan Michael Cornwall

Doing a separate thread for each of these. More documents may follow thanks to donations and as they get publicly released.

Contains a single page form listing Nexon, the defendent, and MapleStory v75 as the infringed material. PA 1-741-698 is apparently their registration number.

03. Report on Filing of Copyright Action (Initial Notification)

Real meat of the complaint.

14. Amended Complaint

Douglas Crane (Lonerboy)'s Rebuttal; Denies knowledge of anything and everything except his own physical location and Nexon's ownership of their material.
The affirmative Defenses are the only good reading and I'll be probing those shortly.

16. Answer to Complaint (Discovery)

Request to postpone court till Wednesday, June 6, 2012. Douglas Crane and Linda Liu are the only defendants responding so far.

20. Ex Parte Application to Continue

Court agrees to reschedule...

20. Proposed Order

Ryan Cornwall's Rebuttals. Denies everything similar to Douglas Crane with a bit more technical acknowledgement. Admits to creation and intended purpose of his various projects. The affirmative defenses are interesting but so are the technicality wrangling attempts in the various denials.

22. Amended Answer to Complaint

Request for a default judgment against Colin_ for not replying. A similar request was filed against Jayce.

25. Declaration of Marc E. Mayer In Support of Request To Enter Default Against Defendant

Derek Osgood a/k/a "Jayce"'s Default

26. Clerks Entry of Default

Colin Johnson a/k/a "Colin_"'s Default

27. Clerks Entry of Default

28. Service of Summons and Complaint Returned Executed (21 days)

32. Motion to Dismiss (cause or other)
Doug Crane moves to dismiss entire case on the basis that hackshield should be the one doing the suing and 'everyone else does it so they should be sued too'. No, seriously.

36. Motion to Dismiss (cause or other)
Process Server's copy of #32. Nothing interesting/new.

37. Stipulation for Protective Order
Everyone agrees that there may be information best left unreleased to the public revealed in this case and be governed by 37b.

37b. Proposed Protective Order

Looks like anything designated as "confidential" by either party is going to be redacted in all public documents.


39. Protective Order
Agreement to the terms of the protective order

40. MEMORANDUM in Opposition to Motion

Full name; PLAINTIFFS' OPPOSITION TO DEFENDANT DOUGLAS CRANE'S MOTIONS TO DISMISS FOR FAILURE TO JOIN PARTY
This is Nexon's 'beyotch, please' to Douglas' attempt to claim hackshield and every other infringing website have to be in the suit too for charges to be brought against them. 
AKA "Why yes, we can in fact sue your sorry ass for your actions without having to sue everyone else simultaneously".
I was actually eagerly awaiting this one because, frankly, it was the stupidest defense I've seen yet and I can only hope it was a delaying tactic not serious.

42. Response in Opposition to Motion

More slapdown for Duglas Crane;
PLAINTIFFS' OPPOSITION TO DEFENDANT DOUGLAS CRANE'S MOTIONS TO DISMISS FOR LACK OF PERSONAL JURISDICTION AND/OR TO TRANSFER VENUE

Basic premise; You did it. You know you did it. You already agreed to be tried here. Sucker.
Very enjoyable read.

42a. Declaration Lloyd Korn
LLoyd submitted his credentials, company history and a copy of the TOS.

42b. Declaration Marc Mayer
Other lawyer submitting large chunks of evidence. Interesting to read.

45. Application to Seal
OOo. Application is to submit spreadsheets full of people who bought cheats and hacks to avoid making their info public. 
Even if granted we could get some interesting info from those.

46. Order on Application to Seal (document)
Request was granted, those spreadsheets are sealed. I believe they're the two items that show up as "content not available for download". Boo.

Reply (Motion related)

Kind of priceless rebuttal/plea that 'anyone couldve been using my account' because they have the 'log in as other user' feature installed. 
vBulletin logs the IP address of each post... so impersonated posts can be clearly spotted. Wonder if that's been subpoena'd yet.
My gosh this one is hilarious.

Reply (Motion related)

Doug again tries to get the case dismissed. There's some funny third person speaking in here regarding Doug having run out of money and his lawyers abandoning him. 


Nexon is taking action against BT & stuffs. Hopefully it all works out to put an end to all these botters/meso farmers.
