ASACP Honors Marc Randazza With Annual Service Recognition Award

LOS ANGELES — The Association of Sites Advocating Child Protection (ASACP) has handed out its annual Service Recognition Award to industry attorney Marc Randazza of the Randazza Legal Group.

“Each year, ASACP is proud to present a Service Recognition Award in order to honor the person (or persons) whose consistent contributions have helped to make the organization’s work possible and more effective,” ASACP Executive Director Tim Henning said. “ASACP depends on the generous contributions of its sponsors, members and other supporters to carry out its mission and this is our way of saying ‘Thanks!’”

Randazza said it is a privilege to represent the adult entertainment industry and ASACP.

“ASACP is proof that this industry is committed to the First Amendment, and that it recognizes that the privileges that come with it are accompanied by responsibility,” Randazza said. “The entire industry should be proud of, and support, this excellent organization.”

Henning presented the crystal trophy to Randazza at the XBIZ Awards last week.

“Marc Randazza has provided invaluable legal assistance to ASACP, including assisting the association in fighting domain name cyber-squatting,” Henning said. “His commitment to our mission of keeping children out of and away from adult entertainment is a valuable tool in the gallant fight for the safety of our youth and for the health of relevant industry groups.”

Past recipients of ASACP’s Service Recognition Award have included Rodney Thompson and Scott Rabinowitz; Epoch CEO Joel Hall; performers Stormy Daniels, Tera Patrick and Evan Seinfeld; Fiona Patten and Robbie Swan of The Eros Association; along with attorneys Greg Piccionelli and Lawrence Walters; technical consultant Brandon Shalton; and ASACP’s own Tim Henning.
