Falcon Foto Sues Porn Kings Over Copyright Infringement

SEATTLE – Falcon Foto has filed a copyright infringement lawsuit against the current and prior owners of Porn Kings and its affiliated websites.

The multimillion-dollar lawsuit, filed in U.S. District Court in Seattle, Wash., alleges that the owners of Porn Kings infringed on its rights by using Falcon images on websites and free hosted galleries without a license.

Falcon seeks damages and injunctive relief from Porn Kings’ original owners John Does 1 and 2, subsequent owners Marvad Corp. and Roger Vadocz, Trey Hickey and E-Media Group, and current owners Lucas Bradfield and Noble Developments.

Licensing negotiations between Falcon Foto and the first owners of Porn Kings began in 2003, but according to the lawsuit, they failed to reach a purchasing agreement for Falcon-produced content. The suit further claims that the defendants used Falcon content regardless of their legal right to do so, and that Falcon content was allegedly passed along from each subsequent owner of Porn Kings, without licensing permission.

Falcon attorney Robert Apgood told XBIZ that at no point did any of the owners of Porn Kings have licensing agreements with Falcon.

Porn Kings affiliates that have sent traffic through a Porn Kings-owned free hosted gallery that featured unlicensed Falcon images could also be held accountable.

Porn Kings operates many adult sites, among them Gutter.com, Chubby.com, AdultPussy.com and StonerBabes.com.

Falcon is represented by Apgood and Spencer Freeman.

A Porn Kings representative would not comment on the suit.
