Court of Appeals says Sony owes C3 no Moe

By Richard Binder

ADVERTISEMENTS

Sony Pictures Television Inc. owned the copyrights to 190 Three Stooges short films. C3 Entertainment Inc. claimed Sony violated the terms of a contract between the parties when Sony distributed compilations of the shorts without paying C3 a share of the proceeds. C3 also asserted that Sony should have paid a portion of the revenue it received when it licensed the shorts to the cable channels AMC and Spike.

Additionally, Sony allegedly breached the terms of a separate agreement by failing to make a reasonable good faith effort to maximize gross receipts in all the markets in which it utilized those shorts.

The California Court of Appeals saw things differently yesterday, and ruled that C3 was not due any payment from Sony's actions.
