Plaintiff seeks an immediate hearing regarding Plaintiffs Motion for Temporary

Restraining Order and Preliminary Injunction at the Court's earliest convenience. Through the
Temporary Restraining Order and Preliminary Injunction, Plaintiffs seek to prevent Defendant
John Karalis from the continuous and ongoing distribution of exclusive content belonging to
Plaintiff Pregame LLC as well as the continuous and ongoing use of the Twitter handle
@VegasRunner which is the exclusive property of Pregame LLC.

(hereinafter "pregame.com" or "the website").
Through the website Plaintiff provides sports
related content of interest to sports fans and sports bettors. Some of that content is provided
free of charge to viewers of the website and other content, designated "premium" content, can
only be accessed through a paid subscription. Premium content subscription fees are a main
source of revenue for Plaintiff's business.
Plaintiff obtains the content from contracted content
providers including Defendant John Karalis.

On or about June 18, 2012 Pregame LLC entered into a Content Services Agreement
("the Agreement") with Defendant Karalis, and in or around 2009 Pregame LLC entered into a
Social Network Addendum ('1he Addendum") with Defendant Karalis. The Agreement and the
Addendum are attached to Pregame LLC's Motion for Temporary Restraining Order and
Preliminary Injunction as Exhibits "1" and "2", respectively. By its express terms the Agreement
was to continue for a period of 5 years, terminating in June 2017. (Exhibit "1 ", Paragraph 9) The
Agreement followed a previous similar contract between the parties which was replaced by the
Agreement. The parties have operated under the current and previous contracts for a period of
Pursuant to the Agreement Defendant Karalis granted Plaintiff an exclusive license to
"publish, display, reformat and distribute" all sports related content generated by Defendant
Karalis, (Exhibit "1 ", Paragraph 2) as well as the right to bundle such content with that of other
providers. (Exhibit "1", Paragraph 3). In addition, the Agreement provides that Karalis may not
publicly disclose information related to his relationship with Pregame LLC (Exhibit "1", Paragraph
13), that Karalis will not undertake any conflicting obligations (Exhibit "1 ", Paragraph 16), and
that Karalis will not attempt to induce employees or customers of Plaintiff to leave Pregame LLC
or pregame.com (Exhibit "1", Paragraph 18). The Agreement further restricts Kalaris' use of the
Nom De Gambling "Vegas Runner."
Pursuant to the Addendum Plaintiff was entitled to be the registered account holder of
any Social Site accounts, including Twitter handles, utilized by Defendant Karalis in connection
with the production of content. Karalis was further obligated to provide the current usemame

and password for all such accounts to Plaintiff and was prohibited from changing said passwords
without Plaintiffs prior written consent. Finally, Karalis was forbidden from referencing any third
party competitor to pregame.com without prior written consent of the Plaintiff.
(Exhibit ''2",
Paragraph 3). The Addendum included a liquidated damages clause specifying damages for
each and every violation of the provisions outlined above. (Exhibit "2", Paragraph 4).
Nevertheless, on or about June 18, 2014 Defendant Karalis attempted to "resign" from
his contractual relationship with Pregame LLC. Upon information and belief Karalis was induced
to do so by an offer from a direct competitor to Pregame LLC.
Subsequently Karalis has
engaged in conduct in direct violation of his obligations and Pregame LLC's rights under the
Agreement. Such violations have been ongoing and continuous and have caused substantial
damage to Pregame LLC. The nature of the damage to Pregame LLC is irreparable Inasmuch
as the content which Karalis is obligated to provide to Pregame LLC for distribution is being
provided to a competitor. Once distributed to the public by the competitor such content cannot
be "undistributed" and the value of that content is lost to Pregame LLC forever. In addition, the
on-going disclosure of information related to Pregame LLC by Karalis further results in
irreparable harm as such information, confidential and otherwise, cannot be retrieved once made
public by Karalis.

LEGAL STANDARD
20
Article 6, section 6 of the Nevada Constitution specifically grants the district courts power
21
to issue writs of injunction. The basis for granting injunctive relief is equity. Sherman v. Clark, 4
22
Nev. 138 {1868).
The granting of restraining orders or injunctions is a matter of discretion.
23
24
Coronet Homes, Inc. v. My/an, 84 Nev. 435, 437, 442 P.2d 901, 902 (1968), and Thom v.
Sweeney, 12 Nev. 251 {1877).
NRCP 65 recognizes three types of injunctive orders: (1)
25
26
27
28
temporary restraining orders, (2) preliminary injunctions, and {3) permanent injunctions. NRCP
65 {2004 ). The purpose of a temporary restraining order is to prevent irreparable harm until the
parties can be heard on a motion for preliminary injunction. A preliminary injunction is designed
to continue to protect the applicant from irreparable injury and preserve or restore the status quo
2
pending final judgment. Ottenheimber v. Real Estate Division, 91 Nev. 338, 342, 535 P.2d 1284,
3
1285 (1975) and Memory Gardens of Las Vegas, Inc. v. Pet Ponderosa Memorial Gardens, Inc.,
4
5
6
7
88 Nev. 1, 4 492, P.2d 123, 124 (1977).

NRCP 65 and NRS 33.010 authorize the Court to grant injunctive relief when the
commission or continuance of an act produces great or irreparable injury to the plaintiff. NRS
33.010 provides:
An injunction may be granted in the following cases:

1. When it shall appear by the complaint that the plaintiff is entitled to the relief
demanded, and such relief or any part thereof consists in restraining the
commission or continuance of the act complained of, either for a limited period
or perpetually.
2. When it shall appear by the complaint or affidavit that the commission or
continuance of some act, during the litigation, would produce great or irreparable
injury to the plaintiff.
3. When it shall appear, during the litigation, that the defendant is doing or
threatens, or is about to do, or is procuring or suffering to be done, some act in
violation of the plaintiffs rights respecting the subject of the action, and tending
to render the judgment ineffectual.

11
(
12
-'
<
13
14
15
Although no precise burden of proof must be met by the party seeking injunctive relief,
16
courts traditionally consider the following equitable criteria: (a) the threat of irreparable injury; (b)
z 0
w
17
the plaintiffs likelihood of success on the merits; (c) the relative interests of the parties, or the
<
18
balance of hardships on each party; and (d) the interests of the public. See, e.g. Miller v. Cal.
19
Pee. Medical Center., 19 F.3d 449, 456
(9'"
Cir. 1994) citing U.S. v. Odessa Union Warehouse
20
Co-op, 833 F.2d 172, 174 (9111 Cir. 1987).
However, the threat of irreparable injury and the
21
plaintiffs likelihood of success on the merits are the facts most often cited. See e.g., Sobol v.
22
Capital Mgmt. Consultants, Inc., 102 Nev. 444, 446, 726 P.2d 335, 337 (1986).

damage." Berryman v. lntemationa/Brotherhood of E/ec. Workers, 82 Nev. 277, 280, 416 P.2d
387, 388 (1966).
There must exist a "reasonable probability" of real injury for an injunction
and/or a temporary restraining order to be issued. /d. at 280, 389.

In this case, the unique nature of the product at issue- real time analysis and information
related to live sporting events - means that once such information is lost to Pregame LLC it can
never be recovered. For example, currently the FIFA Wortd Cup is being played in Brazil. The
World Cup tournament itself happens only once every four years and the individual games within
the tournament are unique, one-time events that can never be duplicated. Upon information and
belief Defendant Karalis is providing content related to the Wortd Cup on an ongoing basis to a
competitor of Pregame LLC in violation of Pregame LLC's clear and exclusive contractual right to
such content. That same content includes information that, upon reasonable reliance, Pregame
LLC anticipated receiving from Karalis (as is its contractual right) and distributing to its
customers. Every bit of content that Karalis provides to a service other than Pregame LLC is lost
to Pregame LLC forever.
The Agreement specifically restricts Karalis from divulging any non-public information
pertaining to Pregame LLC, including information disclosed to Karalis or learned by him as a
result of his relationship to Pregame LLC through the Agreement. Upon information and belief
Karalis has in fact disclosed Confidential Information, as defined by the Agreement, since his
attempt to unilaterally avoid the Agreement. In addition, the on-9oing disclosure of information
related to Pregame LLC by Karalis further results in irreparable harm as such information,
confidential and otherwise, cannot be retrieved once made public by Karalis.
Clearly the
continued disclosure of Confidential Information of Pregame LLC by Kalaris constitutes

irreparable harm as it relates to Pregame LLC's strong interest in keeping such information, in
fact, confidential. Absent a temporary restraining order there is no reasonable way for Pregame
LLC to enforce this very important provision of the Agreement and to ensure that additional,
irreparable harm is not caused by the on-9oing disclosure of Confidential Information by Kalaris.

"A preliminary injunction is available upon a showing that the party seeking it enjoys a
reasonable probability of success on the merits" Sobol v. Capital Management Consultants, Inc.
102 Nev. 444, 726 P.2d 335 (1986) Here, Plaintiff will easily be able to establish the existence of
a contract: inten1, offer, acceptance, consideration, mutuality of agreemen1 and obligation.
Restatement of Contracts 19-24; Lamoureux v. Burrillvi/le Racing Ass'n, 91 R.I. 94, 161 A.2d
10
213, 215 (1960), that Kalaris' conduct constitutes a breach of that contract and that as a result of
11
that breach Pregame LLC has been substantially damaged.
12
Contrarily, Kalaris has no defense to Plaintiffs claim of breach. Essentially Kalaris simply
13
decided to unilaterally extricate himself from the relationship when something which he
14
perceived to be a better deal came along. The contract provides no such mechanism for
15
terminating the agreement.

"1", Paragraph 9)
THE HARDSHIP IMPOSED ON THE DEFENDANTS IN GRANTING THE

TEMPORARY RESTRAINING ORDER AND PRELIMINARY INJUNCTION IS
NOT A FACTOR IN THIS CASE.
In determining whether to grant
a temporary restraining order and/or a preliminary
injunction "a factor of controlling importance" is "the balance of convenience or hardship"

between parties. Rhodes Mining Co. v. Belleville Placer Mining Co., 32 Nev. 230, 106 P. 561,
562 (1910). The courts do not always apply this factor however, when determining whether an
injunction should issue. "The equitable principle of relative hardship is available only to innocent
parties who proceed without knowiedge or warning that they are acting contrary to others' vested
property rights." Gladstone v. Gregory, 95 Nev. 474, 480, 596 P.2d 491 (1979). If both parties
engaged in inequitable conduct or if both parties acted equitable then, and only then, would the
court be required to go through the step of balancing hardships prior to issuing a temporary
restraining order or preliminary injunction. /d.

Karalis knew of his contractual obligation to provide exclusive content to Pregame LLC.
In fact, Karalis has been operating under that obligation for the past several years. Karalis' only
motivation for breaching the contract with Pregame LLC was an offer of more money from a
competitor. The ability to obtain Karalis' content for publication was the very essence of the
contract from Pregame LLC's point of view. That exclusive content was the sole benefrt of the
bargain between the parties to be received by Pregame LLC.
Further, it cannot be reasonably argued that Karalis was not aware that his unilateral
decision to tenninate the relationship prior to the end of the contract tenn was not contrary to a
vested interests of Pregame LLC.
Because Karalis was paid a commission on revenue
generated by publication of his content he was directly aware of the substantial extent of the
hann Pregame LLC would suffer if he decided to simply stop providing the content to Pregame
LLC and start providing it instead to a competitor.
Because Karalis is the only party in this case engaged in inequitable conduct, it is not
appropriate for the court to consider whatever hardship may resuH to him by issue of a temporary
restraining order and/or preliminary injunction. The temporary restraining order followed by a
preliminary injunction should be granted.

IT IS WITHIN THE PUBLIC INTEREST FOR THE TEMPORARY RESTRAINING

ORDER AND PRELIMINARY INJUNCTION TO BE GRANTED.
The public interest presented in this case is the need for public confidence when entering
into commercial contracts that mutually beneficial, longstanding contractual relationships may
not simply be abandoned by one party when a perceived "better deal" comes along. The ability
of a non-breaching party to quickly and efficiently enforce its rights under a contract must be
maintained. To allow the obvious, unjustified and continuous breach of a service contract, such
as the one in this case, while forcing the aggrieved party to pursue protracted litigation to enforce
its rights undennines the expectations of businesses and citizens who rely every day on those
promises to perfonn. The timely and economical remedy of a TRO/ preliminary injunction early

On or about June 18, 2014 Defendant Karalis attempted to "resign" from his
contractual relationship with Pregame LLC. Upon information and belief Karalis was induced to
do so by an offer from a direct competitor to Pregame LLC. Since that time Karalis has engaged
in conduct in direct violation of his obligations and Pregame LLC's rights under the Agreement.
Those violations have been ongoing and continuous and have caused substantial damage to
' Pregame LLC.
The nature of the damage to Pregame LLC is irreparable inasmuch as the
content which Karalis is obligated to provide to Pregame LLC for distribution is being provided to
a competitor.
Once distributed to the public by the competitor such content cannot be
"undistributed" and the value of that content is lost to Pregame LLC forever. in addition, the ongoing disclosure of information related to Pregame LLC by Karalis further results in irreparable
harm as such information, confidential and otherwise, cannot be retrieved once made public by
Karalis.

4.
license to "publish, display, reformat and distribute" all sports related content generated by
Defendant Karalis, as well as the right to bundle such content with that of other providers.
5.
The Agreement further provides that Karalis may not publicly disclose information
related to his relationship with Pregame LLC, that Karalis will not undertake any conflicting
obligations, and that Karalis will not attempt to induce employees or customers of Plaintiff to
leave Pregame LLC or pregame.com. The Agreement further restricts Karalis' use of the Nom
De Gambling "Vegas Runner."
6.
holder of any Social Site accounts, including Twitter handles, utilized by Defendant Karalis in
connection with the production of content. Karalis was further obligated to provide the current
usemame and password for all such accounts to Plaintiff and was prohibited from changing said
passwords without Plaintiffs prior written consent.
Finally, Karalis was forbidden from
referencing any third party competitor to pregame.com without prior written consent of the
Plaintiff. The Addendum included a liquidated damages clause specifying damages for each and
every violation of the provisions outlined above.
7.
That on or about June 18, 2014 Defendant Karalis attempted to "resign" from his
contractual relationship with Pregame LLC.
B.
Subsequently Karalis has engaged in conduct in direct violation of his obligations
and Pregame LLC's rights under the Agreement.
Such violations have been ongoing and

9.
The nature of the damage to Pregame LLC is irreparable inasmuch as the content

competitor.
"undistributed" and the value of that content is lost to Pregame LLC forever.
10.
The on-going disclosure of information related to Pregame LLC by Karalis further
results in irreparable harm as such information, confidential and otherwise, cannot be retrieved
once made public by Karalis.

CONCLUSIONS OF LAW
Plaintiff's Temporary Restraining Order

1.
Article 6, section 6 of the Nevada Constitution specifically grants the district courts
power to issue writs of injunction. The basis for granting injunctive relief is equity. Sherman v.
Clark, 4 Nev. 138 (1868).
The granting of restraining orders or injunctions is a matter of
discretion. Coronet Homes, Inc. v. My/an, 84 Nev. 435, 437, 442 P.2d 901, 902 (1968), and
Thom v. Sweeney, 12 Nev. 251 (1877) .
2.
NRCP 65 recognizes three types of injunctive orders: (1) temporary restraining
orders, (2) preliminary injunctions, and (3) permanent injunctions.
NRCP 65 (2004).
The
purpose of a temporary restraining order is to prevent irreparable harm until the parties can be
heard on a motion for preliminary injunction. A preliminary injunction is designed to continue to
protect the applicant from irreparable injury and preserve or restore the status quo pending final
judgment. Ottenheimber v. Real Estate Division, 91 Nev. 338, 342, 535 P.2d 1284, 1285 (1975)
and Memory Gardens of Las Vegas, Inc. v. Pet Ponderosa Memorial Gardens, Inc., 88 Nev. 1, 4
492, P.2d 123, 124 (1977).
3.
NRCP 65 and NRS 33.010 authorize the Court to grant injunctive relief when the
33.010 provides:
25
26
27
28

1. When it shall appear by the complaint that the plaintiff is entitled to the relief
or perpetually.
3. When it shall appear, during the litigation, that the defendant is doing or
violation of the plaintiff's rights respecting the subject of the action, and tending
1

4.
relief, courts traditionally consider the following equitable criteria: (a} the threat of irreparable
injury; (b) the plaintiff's likelihood of success on the merits; (c) the relative interests of the parties,
or the balance of hardships on each party; and (d) the interests of the public. See, e.g. Miller v.
Cal. Pac. Medical Center., 19 F.3d 449, 456 (fil' Cir. 1994) citing U.S. v. Odessa Union
10
Warehouse Co-op, 833 F.2d 172, 174 (9"' Cir. 1987).
11
Breach of Contract
5.
12
Basic contract principles require the following in order to establish the existence of
13
an enforceable contract: Offer, acceptance, meeting of the minds and consideration. May v.

Generally speaking, when a contract is clear on its face, it ''will be construed from
17
the written language and enforced as written." Cantore v. Coast Hotels & Casinos, Inc., 121
18
Nev. 771, 776 121 P.3d 599, 603 (2005). The court has no authority to alter the terms of an
19
unambiguous contract. !d., citing Renshaw v. Renshaw, 96 Nev. 541, 543,611 P.2d 1070, 1071
20
(1980).

21
7.
A breacih of contract occurs where a party does not perform a duty arising under
22
the agreement, and such failure is material. See Calloway v. City of Reno, 116 Nev. 250, 256,
23
993 P.2d 1259, 1263 (2000) (reversed on other grounds), Olson v. Richard, 120 Nev. 240,89
24
P.3d 31 (2004}.
25
Accordingly, based upon the foregoing Findings of Fact and Conclusions of law,
26
27
Motion for Preliminary Injunction is GRANTED as PREGAME LLC has demonstrated a
28
reasonable probability of success on the merits of its claim for breach of contract and if
1

Defendant Karalis conduct is allowed to continue, such conduct will cause irreparable harm to

the business of providing certain sports infortrtation to purveyors suchas PREGAME.

PREGAME and JOHN has had a business relationship for several years. TI1ey entered into
contract called a "Content Services Agreement" effective June 18, 2012.
The parties als

entered into a "Social Network Addendum". Copies of these documents are attached hereto a.
Exhibits 1 and 2, respectively.
13
14
Pursuant to the Content Services Agreement JOHN provides certain sports related
infom1a!ion to PREGAME along with an exclusive license that allows PREGAME to "publish
15
16
display, refonnat and distribute" the infonnation JOHN provides.

PREGAME commenced this action against JOHN after he (JOHN) tenninatcd th
17
18
pa1ties' contractual relationship on or about June 18, 2014.

"information and belief' that JOHN did so because he received an offer fi'om one o
20
PREGAME'S competitors.
PREGAME has alleged
The fact that PREGAME would make such an allegation
01
01
21
22
information and belief indicates that PREGAME has no evidence whatsoever to suppott th
23
claim.
24
PREGAME ever challenged the validity of JOHN's cancellation of the Content Service
25
Agreement. Nevertheless, PREGAME commenced this action with the filing of a Complaint o
26
PREGAME has not identified the competitor who supposedly made the offer. Nor ha
July 10, 2014, in which PREGAME alleged three causes of action, (I) breach of contract; (2
27
28
breach of implied .=nant of good faith and fair dealing; and (3) attomey's fees. Nowhere h
the Complaint did PREGAME request injunctive relief.

2
Six days later on July 16, 20I
PREGAME filed its, "Plaintiff's Motion For Temporary Restraining Order And Preliminar
Injunction".
The motion was originally scheduled to be heard on September 16, 2014

However, PREGAME's counsel apparently obtained an order shortening time which moved th
did not serve him with the motion or the iwdershortening time.
29, 2014 hearing JOHN had not even been served with PREGAME's Summons and Complaint
In fact, at the time of the Jul
Consequently, JOHN was unaware that PREGAME had even commenced a lawsuit against him
10
II
Not surprisingly, JOHN did not appear at the July 29, 2014 hearing. The minutes from the Jul)
12
29, 2014 hearing indicate that PREGAME's counsel Mr. Galliher told the Court that JOHN wa
13
out of the jurisdiction and he was unable to effect proper service. Mr. Galliher offered no detail
14
as to what efforts he made to serve JOHN. Despite these procedural circumstances, which clear!
15
16
17
did not give this Court personal jurisdiction over JOl-IN, a Temporary Restraining Order (TRO
was issued and signed by the Court on August l, 2014 and entered on August 4, 2014. The TR
18
restricted all of JOHN's business activities until August 16,2014- effectively putting JOHN ou
19
of business. The minutes from the hearing also indicate that Mr. Galliher was ordered to re-fil
20
and re-notice PREGAME'S motion. A review of the Court record indicates that Mr. Gallihe
21
22
never did so.
23
The Court set the matter for a s!Dtus check on August 12, 2014. For reasons that ar
24
unclear, no hearing was actually held on August 12,2014. Nevet1heless, on August 14,2014 th
25
Court signed an Order extending the Temporary Restraining Order to August 29, 2014. Thi
26
extension reiterated the same prohibitions contained in the original TRO.
It was not until
27
28
August 16, 20 !4, after PREGAME obtain1:d the extension of the TRO, that JOHN was final!
served with the Summons, Complaint and the Temporary Restraining Order (see affidavit o
2
3
personal service on file with the Court).
However, the affidavit of service states only that th
Temporary Restraining Order was personally served on JOHN. The extension issued on Augus
4
5
14, 2014 was never personally served on JOHN.

there would also be a hearing on PREGAME'S motion for preliminary injunction.
JOHN retained his current attorney, Mr. Donn W. Prokopius, Esq. on or about Auj,'llSt 19

19
PREGAME'S petition for an order to show cause.

JOHN was never personally served with PREGAME'S Summons and Complaint prior t
the initial hearing in this case tl1at occurred on July 29, 2014. Despite this Court's clear lack of
18

personal jurisdiction over JOHN, a temporary restraining order was issued. JOHN was neve

jurisdiction to grant PREGAME the relief sought in its motion. Simpson v. Odonnell, 98 Nev.
23
516,654 P.2d 1020 (1982).
Without proper notice to JOHN the Court lacke
ln Simpson, the Nevada Supreme Court specifically held a,
24
25
26
27
28
follows:
"Before adjudicating the incidences of the parties' marriage, however, the district Court i
required to obtain in personam jurisdiction over both Mr. and Mrs. Simpson. Vanderbil
v. Vanderbilt, 354 U.S. 416 (1957); Estin, supra; Farnham v. Farnham, 80 Nev. 180,391
P.2d 26 (1964); Summers v. Summers, 69 Nev. 83, 241 P.2d 1097 (1952). The distric
Comi did not have personal jurisdiction over Mrs. Simpson since she is a domiciliary o

Georgia and she did not appear in the divorce proceeding below. Thus, it could no
adjudicate Mrs. Simpson's rights to child custody, child support, and alimony. (ld, 9
Nev. at 5 I 6, 654 P .2d at 1020, emphasis added).
Obviously, if JOHN had been given proper notice of the hearing he would have filed at

infonnation would certainly be substantially different evidence. If the Court had been aware o

these circumstances JOHN believes PREGAME would never have been granted a TRO or

temporary injunction. In addition, JOHN would have pointed out the failure of PREGAME'
12
counsel to comply with the requirements of NRCP 65(b) and (d) (discussed below). JOHN i

Pursuant to NRCP 60(b).
NRCP 60. RELIEF FROM JUDGMENT OR ORDER
NRCP60(b) Mistakes; Inadvertence; Excusable Neglect; Newly Discoverc
Evidence; l<'raud, Etc. On motion and upon such terms as are just, the Court may relieve
party or a party's legal representative from a final judgment, order, or proceeding tbr th
following reasons: (I) mistake, inadvertence, surprise, or excusable neglect; (2) new!
discovered evidence which by due diligence could not have been discovered in time to move fo
a new trial under Rule 59(b); (3) fraud (whether heretofore denominated intrinsic or extrinsic).
misrepresentation or other misconduct of an adverse party; (4) the judgment is void; or, (5) th
judgment has been satisfied, released, or discharged, or a prior judgment upon which it is base
has been reversed or otherwise vacated, or it is no longer equitable that an injunction should hav
prospective application. The motion shall be made within a reasonable time, and for reasons (I)
(2), and (3) not more than 6 months after the proceeding was taken or the date that written notic
of entry of the judgment or order was served. A motion under this subdivision (b) does not affec
the finality of a judgment or suspend its operation. This rule does not limit the power of a Cou
to entertain an independent action to relieve a party from a judgment, order, or proceeding, or t
set aside a judgment for fraud upon the Court. Writs of coram nobis, coram vobis, audita querela
and bills of review and bills in the nature of a bill of review, are abolished, and the procedure fo
obtaining any relief frmu ..a_judgment shall be by motion as prescribed in thesJUJJles or by a
independent action.
The tempomry injunction entered on September 16, 2014. Prior to its issuance an initia
TRO was issued on July 29, 2014 and remained in effect until August 14, 2014. TI1e TRO wa
then extended to August 29, 2014 and then extended again to September 11, 2014.

one of these orders. The case of J.eslie vs. Leslie, 941 P.2 451 (Nev. 1997), provides that whe
the Court assesses a Rule 60(b) motion, the Court must analyze the request in light of th
10
following factors: whether the movant (1) promptly applied to remove the judgment; (2) lackc

22
occurred. JOHN is acting in good faith because he clearly has legitimate issues to be raised tha

counsel. He has no legal training and although he would undoubtedly have known enough t
seek legal counsel there was little that he could not do when he was never given notice of any o

The initial Temporary Restraining Order was issued and then extended unde
circumstances where no proper notice or an opportunity to be heard was ever given to JOHN.

11
Indeed, when the initial TRO was issued on July 29, 2014 JOHN had not even been served wit

the Complaint.
13
jurisdiction over JOHN. It is hard to imagine that a TRO would be issued that restricts a JOHN'.
14
ThtlS, as previously discussed, this Court had not yet acquired persona
fundamental right to earn a living when the Comt had not even acquired personal jurisdictio
15
16
17
over him. Yet, that is exactly what occurred.

While NRCP 65(b) contemplutes that an ex parte restraining order may be issued it car
18
only be issued under certain limited circumstances specified in the rule. Specifically, NRC
19
65(b) govems the issuance of an ex parte a temporary restraining order. It reads as follows:
20
21
22
23
24
25
26
27
28
NRCP 65(b) Temporary restraining order; notice; hearing; duration. A temporar

restraining order may be granted without written or oral notice to the adverse party or that patty'
attomey only if (I) it clearly appears from specific facts shown by affidavit or by the veri fie
complaint that immediate and irreparable injmy, loss, or damage will result to the applican
before the adverse party or that party's attorney can be heard in opposition, and (2) the applicant'
attorney certifies to the Court in writing the efforts, if any, which have been made to give th
notice and the reasons supporting the claim that notice should not be required. Every temporar
restraining order granted without notice shall be indorsed with the date and hour of issuance
shall be filed forthwith in the clerk's office and entered of record; shall define the injury and stat
why it is i!Tcparablc and why the order was granted without notice; and shall expire by its ternr
within such time after entry, not to exceed 15 days, as the Comt fixes, unless within the times
fixed the order, for good cause shown, is extended for a like period or unless the party agains
whom the order is directed consents that it may be extended for a longer..period. The reasons fo
the extension shall be entered of record. In case a temporary restraining order is granted withou

notice, the motion for a preliminary injunction shall be set down for hearing at the earlics

There arc:;-twcnequirements that .must be met for the Court to issue all ex parte temporar
restraining order. The Court can only do so when
(1) it clearly appears from specific fact
shown by affidavit or by the verified complaint that immediate and ineparab!c injury, Joss, o
10
11
damage will result to the applicant before the adverse pmty or that patty's attomey can be hear
12
in opposition, and (2) the applicant's attorney certifies to the Court in writing the efforts, if any
13
which have been made to give the notice and the reasons supporting the claim that notice shoul
14
15
16
17
not be required.
Neither of these two requirements was satisfied before the Couti issued the initial TR
on July 29, 2014, or, the two subsequent extensions. PREGAME's motion for a TRO w
18
accompanied by a supporting affidavit by someone calling himself "RJ Bell". "RJ Bell" is a
19
alias- a fact admitted in paragraph 2 of RJ Bell's affidavit in which he states that he uses th
20
name RJ Bell "professionally"- whatever that is supposed to mean. RJ Bell's true identity i
21
22
otherwise unknown and therefore it is unknown whether the person purporting to be RJ Bell wh
23
signed the atridavit is a bona fide representative of PREGAME, a stranger, an impostor or
24
straw man. Moreover, in paragraph 9 of his affidavit "RJ Bell" alleges that after JOH
25
terminated the Contract Services Agreement he (JOHN) " ... has engaged in conduct in direc
26
violation of his obligations and PREGAME, LLC'S rights under the agreement.
Thes
27
28
violations have been ongoiltg and contirumus and if caused substantial damage to PREGAME ...
LLC".
2
3
RJ Bell's allegations are not actual evidence. They are nothing more than concluso1
statements that are insufficient to support a request for a temporary restraining order or
preliminary injunction. Nowhere in his affidavit does RJ Bell describe actual specific instance
4
5
of conduct that JOHN is alleged to have engaged in that would constitute a violation of th
customers, distributing content to competitors of PREGAME, identifying those competitors, etc
PREGAME's complaint is similarly devoid of any specific factual allegations. Without specifi
facts PREGAME cannot show that it has suffered immediate and irreparable injury, Joss,
01
10
11
damage will resull to it before JOHN can be heard in opposition to PREGAME'S ex part
12
request for a TRO. In addition, PREGAME's lawyer failed to certify to the Court in writing th
13
efforts, if any, he made to give JOHN prior notice or the reasons why notice should not b
14
required. In fact, circumstances clearly indicate that PREGAME and its lawyer were actual!
15
16
17
playing games with the TRO process by deliberately withholding notice from JOHN that
lawsuit had been commenced until after an ex parte TRO had been issued. PREGAME and it
18
lawyer certainly knew where JOHN lived. Yet, they made no effort to immediately serve JOH
19
with the Summons and Complaint. At the July 29, 2014 hearing PREGAME'S lawyer, Mr.
20
Golliher told the Court that JOHN out to the jurisdiction. After the TRO had been issued on Jul)
21
22
29, 2014 PREGAME still made no effort to serve the JOHN. It was only when the TRO w
23
extended on August 14, 2014 that PREGAME'S lawyer needed only two days to personally
24
serve JOHN at his home with the Summons, the Complaint and the TRO.
25
Complaint was filed on July 7, 2014. It is inconceivable that PREGAME'S lawyer could no
26
27
28
serve JOHN until five weeks later.
PREGAME'
The TRO that was issued on July 29, 2014 is similarly defective. NRCP 65(d) sets fort
what must be contained in a TRO or temporary injunction. It reads as follows:
NRCO (d) Fonn and scope of injunction or restraining order. Every order granting aJ
injunction and every restraining order shall set forth the reasons for its issuance; shall be specifi
in tenus; shall describe in reasonable detail, and not by reference to the complaint or othe
5 document, the act or acts sought to be restrained; and is binding only upon the parties to th
------6- . _a<;ti()n, their oflicer_s,
_and atl_o!11eys,
active concert or participation with them who-r-eeeive actual-notice of the order by personal
7 setvice or otherwise.
4
The TRO that was issued on August 1, 2014 the two subsequent extensions and th
temporary injunction arc all deficient because they failed to describe in reasonable detail th
10
ll
reasons for its issuance.
The Nevada Supreme Court has specifically held that a restrainin
12
order or preliminary injunction issued hy a trial Court is void, not merely voidable, unless th
13
Court issuing the same sets forth in the order the reasons for its issuance, is specific in its tenn.
14
and describes in reasonable detail, not by reference to the complaint or other documents, the ac
15
16
17
18
19
20
or acts sought to be restrained.
Webster v. Steinberg, 84 Nev. 426 84 Nev. 426, 442 P.2d 894
(1968 Nev). None of these four separate documents contain any specific facts that justify th
issuance of the TRO or a temporary injunction.
For these reasons, JOHN is respectfully requesting that the tempormy injunction be sc
aside and that the Court set the matter for an evidentiary hearing.

In addition to the cases where an allowance is authorized by specific statute, th
Com1 may make an allowance of attorney's fees to a prevailing party:
When he has not recovered more than $20,000.00; or

Without regard to the recovery sought, when the Court finds that the claim

POINTS AND AUTHORITIES

Plaintiff, PREGAME, LLC (hereinafter "PREGAME") is engaged in the business o
15
16
providing sports content and infonnation to the general public, which uses this infom1ation fo
17
entertainment and wagering. Defendant, JOHN KARALIS (hereinafter "JOHN") is engaged i
18
the business of providing certain sports information to purveyors such as PREGAME.
19
PREGAME and JOHN has had a business relationship for several years. They entered into at
20
alleged contract called a "Content Services Agreement" effective June 18, 2012. TI1e parties also
21
22
entered into a "Social Network Addendum". Pursuant to the Content Services Agreement JOH
23
provides certain sp011s related infonnation to PREGAME along with an exclusive license tha
24
allows PREGAME to "publish, display, refonnat and distribute" the information JOHN provides.
25
26
PREGAME commenced this action against JOHN after he (JOHN) tcm1inated th

parties' relationship on or about June 18, 2014. PREGAME has alleged on "information an
27
28
belief' .that JOHN did so because he received an offer from one. of PREGAME'S competitors.
The fact that PREGAME would make such an allegation on information and belief indicates tha
2
3
PREGAME has no evidence whatsoever to support the claim. PREOAME has nnt i<lentifie<i th
competitor who supposedly made the offer. Nor has PREGAME ever challenged the validity o
4
5
JOHN's cancellation of the Content Services Agreement. Neveitheless, PREGAME commence
causes of action, (l) breach o1coiitl'act; (2) breach of implied covenant of good faith arid fai
dealing; and (3) attorney's fees. Nowhere in the Complaint did PREGAME request injunctiv
relief. Six days later on July 16, 2014, PREGAME filed its, "Plaintiff's Motion .!'or Temporar
10
!I
Restraining Order And Preliminary Injunction". The motion was originally scheduled to b
12
heard on September 16, 2014. However, PREGAME's counsel apparently obtained an Ordet
13
Shortening Time which moved the hearing date to July 29, 2014.
14
JOHN was unaware of th
heating because PREGAME's counsel did not serve him with the Motion nor the Orde1
15
16
17
Shortening Time. In fact, at tl1e time of the July 29, 2014, hearing JOHN had not even beet
served with PREGAME's Summons and Complaint. Consequently, JOHN was unaware tim
18
PREGAME had even commenced a lawsuit against him. JOHN did not appear at the July 29
19
2014, hearing. n1e minutes from the July 29, 2014 hearing indicate that PREGAME's counse
20
Mr. Galliher told the Court that JOHN was out of the jurisdiction and he was unable to effec
21
22
proper service.
Mr. Galliher offered no details as to what efforts he made to serve JOHN.
23
Despite these procedural circumstances, which clearly did not give this Comt persona
24
jurisdiction over JOHN, a Temporary Restraining Order (TRO) was issued and signed by th
25
Court on AU!,'llSt !, 20!4, and entered on August4, 2014. The TRO restricted all of JOHN'.
26
27
28
business activities until August 16, 2014- effectively putting JOHN out of business.
Th
minutes !\om the hearing also indicate that Mr. Galliher was ordered to re-{ile and re-notic
2
3
PREGAME'S Motion. A review oftbe Comt record indicates that Mr. Galliher never did so.
The Court set the matter for a status check on August 12, 2014. For reasons that ar
4
5
unclear, no hearing was actually held on August 12,2014. Nevertheless, on August 14,2014 th
7 notuntil August 16, 2014, after PREGAME obtained the extension of the TRO, tha.t JOHN w
8
finally served with the Summons, Complaint and the Temporary Restraining Order (see affidavi
of personal service on file with the Court).
However, only the Temporary Restraining Orde
10
11
was personally served on JOHN. The extension issued on August 14, 2014 was never personal!
12
served on JOHN nor was the subsequent second extension or the temporary protective order tha
13
was issued on September II, 2014.

Regarding PREGAME's request for an Order to Show Cause, it has tailed to provide a
23
affidavit containing specific factual allegations in support of what it alleges are the violations o
24
the Temporary Restraining Order. NRS 22.030(2) requires an affidavit selling forth the fact
25
constituting the contempt. The Nevada Supreme Court has slated that a request for an order t
26
show cause must be supported by an affidavit setting forth the specific factual allegations whic
27
28
supposedly comprise tbe contempt. The requirement of an affidavit is jurisdictional. Awad v.
Wright, 106 Nev. 407, 794 P.2d 713 (1990). In other words without an affidavit the court has n

jurisdiction to address the issue. PREGAME has not included an affidavit in support of it.

August 14, 2014. PREGAME by its own admission did not personally serve JOHN with th
18
original TRO until August 16,2014. Thus, when JOHN read the TRO he legitimately believed i
19
had expired and he was no longer subject to its tenns. It is true that on August 14, 2014, th
20
TRO was extended for 15 days to August 29, 2014, but the extension was never served o
21
22
23
JOHN. Therefore, JOHN was unaware the TRO was still in effect after August 14, 2014
PREGAME however has no one but itself (or its lawyer) to blmne for this circumstance.

The same argument applies to PREGAME'S claim that JOHN continues to use th

26
provides no specific evidence to prove or document that JOHN continues to usc the twitte

PREGAME nor its lawyer has produced any such evidence at the time of filing their Order t

Show Cause. JOHN respectfully submits he has never deliberately or willfully violated the TR
that was served on him on August 16, 2014. As far as JOHN could determine based upon th
documents that were served on him the initial TRO expired on August 14, 2014. JOHN wa

2. ATTORNEY'S FEES
NRS 18.010 provides as follows;
2.
In addition to the cases where an allowance is authorized by specific statute, th
Court may make an allowance of attorney's fees to a prevailing party:
(a)
When he has not recovered more than $20,000.00; or
(b)
Without regard to the recovery sought, when the Court finds that the claim
counterclaim, cross-claim or third party complaint or defense of the opposing party was brough
without reasonable ground or to harass the prevailing party.
In the case of Miller v. Wilfong, I I 9 P.3d 727 (2005) the Nevada Supreme Court hel
that it is within the trial Court's discretion to determine the reasonable mnount of attorney fcc.
19
under a statute or mle and that in exercising its discretion, the district Court must evaluate th
20
factors set forth in Brunze/l v. Golden Gate National Bank, 85 Nev. 345, 455 P.2d 31 (1969).
21
including the qualities of the advocate, the character and difficulty of the work performed, th
22
23
work actually perfmmed by the attorney, and the result obtained.
In this case, JOHN'S counse
24
is an experienced attomcy who has litigated numerous divorce, custody, paternity and post
25
divorce actions. The legal representation in this case involved the collection and analysis of th
26
pertinent information, the preparation of legal documents and Court appearances.
27
JOHN'S
counsel expects to obtain a good result based on the facts of the case. JOHN has incurre
28
attomey's fees in responding to what is a questionable motion at best.
::;.
JOHN is therefor
requesting that he have an award of attomey's fees in the sum of $2,500.00.

Defendant Karalis makes essentially two arguments as to why he should not be held in
contempt for his wholesale failure to comply with the duly issued orders of this court: The first is
a procedural complaint that the Plaintiff's Petition for
he had no notice of the Temporary Restraining Order. Neither argument has merit and Karalis
should be held in contempt for his clear violations of the court's orders which continue even
today.
Relevant Facts occurring since the filing of Plaintiffs Petition
On August 26, 2014 Plaintiff filed the instant Petition for an Order to Show Cause.

1)
Summons and Complaint;

(including the order to appear for hearing on Preliminary Injunction on September 11, 2014) was

24
A copy of the motion for preliminary injunction and the extended TRO which
Karalis' first "defense" is that Plaintiff "failed to provide an affidavit containing specific
factual allegations in support of what it alleges are the violations of the Temporary Restraining
Order."
However, Plaintiff's counsel provided an affidavit which was included with the Petition for
Order to Show Cause which stated, in pertinent part, as follows:

"That since being served with the Temporary Restraining

Order Defendant Karalis has continuously and repeatedly failed to
comply with the restrictions contained therein.
Specifically,
Karalis continues to provide content to a direct competitor of

PREGAME LLC and also continues to utilize the Twitter handle
"@VegasRunner" to direct Internet traffic (I.e. customers)
away from Pregame.com and to a direct competitor's website
in direct violation of the prohibitions contained In the
Temporary Restraining Order." (emphasis added)
In addition, attached as Exhibit 3 to the Petition for Order to Show Cause was a copy of a
screenshot of the @VegasRunner Twitter page date stamped "8/20/2014 8:31 AM" which
included multiple contemporaneous "tweets" including a baseball "Late Move" as wall as
reference to "phillygodfather.com", the very website Karalis was prohibited from providing
content to under the TRO.
So, not only did plaintiff provide an affidavit detailing the violations, Plaintiff also provided
direct evidence of the violations.
The second "defense" is that Karalis only continued to violate the TRO because he was
served with the "original" TRO and not the extension in affect at the time. However, the licensed
Private Investigator who finally served Karalis at his ex-wife's residence on August 16, 2014 was
provided with only the extended TRO as she had been retained on August 15, 2014 after a
previous process server was unable to serve Karalis (See affidavit of Estella Sandoval attached
hereto as Exhibit "8")
Even if it were true that Karalis was served with the expired TRO, which it is not, that
doesn't explain why Mr. Karalis behavior did not change once his counsel was indisputably
served with copies all three TRO's on August 29th.
In anticipation of a claim of ignorance
exactly like the one we now see from Defendant, Plaintiffs counsel sent another letter to Mr.
Prokopius on September 4, 2014 which included screen shots of the @VegasRunner Twitter

page which clearly stated "[m]y only purpose ln sending this letter is to suspend any notion that
you are not aware of Mr. Karalis' ongoing and flagrant disregard of the duly issued orders of the
court." (Exhibit "5").
In cannot be reasonably disputed that on August 29 Karalis' counsel wes also served
with ALL THREE TRO's, the original and both extensions. In the accompanying letter Plaintiff's
counsel stated that "[d]espite being personally served with the court's Temporery Restraining
Order on August 16th, 2014 Mr. Karalls has continued to engage in conduct which is in direct
violation of that Order. The court has set a hearing for September 23, 2014 to allow Mr. Karalis
to show cause why he should not be held in contempt for his continued and blatant violations of
the TRO." (See, Exhibit "2")
Consequently the claim that Defendant was unaware of the TRO is preposterous. He
was personally served with the extended TRO which was the current version on August 16th,
and not the original which expired on August 14 as he now claims; His counsel was served with
copies on August 29 by Plaintiffs counsel; and, finally the court's own electronic system served
defense counsel that day as well.
Incredibly, even service of the Preliminary Injunction failed to dissuade Mr. Karalis from
continuing to ignore the court's orders this case. On Tuesday, September 16, 2014, after the
Preliminary Injunction was signed by the court and filed, Plaintiffs counsel sent the Preliminary
Injunction along with a letter to Mr. Prokopius demanding that the Twitter account information
and password be turned over within 24 hours as ordered. (Exhibit "9") After more than 24 hours
had passed without response Plaintiff sent ANOTHER letter (Exhibit "1 0") Finally, on September
18, 2014 an email was sent by defense counsel which stated simply:
23
24

27
Dear Mr. Galliher:

meet with my client to get that information. He will be in (sic) the
morning. I will correspond at that time.
Sincerely,
Donn W. Prokopius, Esq. (Exhibit "11 ")
It should be noted that this was the first communication of any kind received from

defense counsel since the Notice of Appearance on August 29, 2014, despite the fact that they
had been retained "on or about August 19, 2014" (See Defendant's Motion to ReHear/Reconsider of Preliminary Injunction, Page 5 at Line 13-14, filed on 9/19114). In more than
30 days, in a case where a TRO had been issued and Plaintiff's counsel had sent no less than
five letters to defense counsel there had been zero communications from defense counsel.
When there finally was some communication, it came in the form of a 4 sentence e-mail with
absolutely no relevant content. Even the "opposition" addressed herein was filed on the Friday
afternoon before a Tuesday morning hearing and was filed THREE WEEKS after defense
counsel was served with the Order to Show Cause.
This has been a common tactic of the Defendant throughout this dispute: Simply ignore
the situation and conduct his business as usual. He ignored a cease and desist letter sent by
Pregame's counsel by certified mail on June 30, 2014 (even though it was sent to his current
address AND his former address where he was ultimately personally served). (Exhibit "12") He
has ignored the court's Temporary Restraining Order and Preliminary Injunction and continues to
until this day. (Exhibit "16")
As a further example, instead of turning over the Twitter account information as required
by the Preliminary Injunction Karalis DELETED the Twitter account for @VegasRunner on
September 19th, but not before siphoning off ns 34,000 plus followers to a new account called
@greek_7777. (Exhibit "14")
Only after yet another letter from Plaintiff's counsel did the
defendant finally provided the password for the Twitter account "@greek_7777" last Friday
afternoon. (Exhibit "15")
However,
at
the
same
time
Karalis
created
a third
Twitter account
called
"@greek_gambler." According to that account Karalis was appearing on Fox Sports Radio as
recently as Monday, September 22, 2014 at 8:23 am. and "breaking down #NFL #MNF and
more". (Exhibit "13")
That conduct is in direct violation of the prohibition contained in the TRO
and the Preliminary Injunction against "providing content, as that term is defined in the Content
Services Agreement between the parties, to any other entity."

In the "opposition" defendant also makes several statements that are not directly related
to either of the two arguments. For example, Defendant discusses the procedural history of the
case, of which the court is well aware. Karalis apparently contends that Plaintiff was obligated to
"re-file and re-notice" the Motion for Preliminary Injunction. However, The court minutes for July
29, 2014 state, in pertinent part "if necessary, the Temporary Restraining Order is to be
extended prior to its expiration, and the Plaintiff is to re-file the Motion for Preliminary Injunction
to provide the Defendant with adequate time to respond." In essence, counsel was advised that
in the event the TRO expired before a hearing on the Preliminary Injunction was set, it would be
necessary to re-file and re-notice the motion. Since the TRO was duly extended through
September 11, 2014 it was not an Issue.
However, once defense counsel made his appearance on August 27, the court sua
sponte set the Motion for Preliminary Injunction for hearing on September 11. Since that order
was issued on August 29th, defense counsel was served with the same via the court's electronic
service system. (Exhibit '7") Nevertheless, Plaintiffs counsel served the same order by e-mail
and regular mail upon Mr. Prokopius on the very same day, along with a copy of the motion for
TRO/Preliminary Injunction. (Exhibit "2") The notion that 3 copies of the notice, including one
directly from the court, is still not sufficient to make Defendant aware is troublesome.
Likewise, the claim that Pregame has never "challenged the validity of John's cancellation
of the Content Services Agreement" is belied by the fact that Pregame sent a Cease and Desist
letter on just12 days after Karalis' breach (Exhibit "12") and then sued him for the breach only 10
days later. It's hard to imagine a stronger challenge than the filing of a lawsuit.
ATIORNEY'S FEES
Defendant's request for attorney's fees is nothing short of madness. Defendant has done
absolutely NOTHING in this case except for ignore it. Meanwhile, Plaintiff has been forced to
expend thousands of dollars in attorney's fees and costs in an effort to enforce it's clear
contractual rights, including preparation and attendance at a Preliminary Injunction hearing at
which Defendant failed to appear. Defendant's failure to respond to both the Plaintiff and the
28

5

Court in any meaningful way is the only reason this case is where it is.
Under the contract Plaintiff is entitled to recover his attorney's fees for enforcing the
contract. Defendant's clear pattern of Ignorance and obfuscation in this case warrants an award
of reasonable attorney's fees to PLAINTIFF for the unnecessary and ongoing work created by
Defendant's documented and willful failure to comply with his responsibilities in this case.
Accordingly, Plaintiff requests an award of $3,000.00 as and for its reasonable attorney's fees in
dealing with Defendant's intransigence. (Exhibit "16")

CONCLUSION
The conduct of Mr. Karafis both before and after retaining counsel has been consistent:
He has completely ignored the rights of the Plaintiff, he has ignored the prohibitions placed upon
him by the court in the form of a Temporary Restraining Order and subsequent Preliminary
Injunction, he has ignored orders setting hearings, he has ignored demands from Plaintiffs
counsel that he comply with the court's orders, even to this day he continues to ignore the
authority of this court and engage in conduct which is directly contrary to its orders.
Defendant Karalis should be harshly sanctioned for his unrepentant and frivolous conduct
during the early pendency of this action.
Further, he should be ordered to pay attorney's fees and costs in the amount of
$3,000.00 to Plaintiff for the necessity of bringing the Order to Show Cause and related issues.

Re:
Pregame LLC v. John Karalis

Case No.: A-14-703627
Dear Mr. Prokopius :

It is my pleasure to represent Pregame LLC in the above-referenced matter.
am in receipt of your Notice of Appearance on behalf of Mr. Karalis.
Attached please find copies of the following documents related to this case:
Pregame LLC's complaint for breach of contract;
Pregame LLC's motion for temporary restraining order and
preliminary injunction;
Temporary Restraining Order dated August 1, 2014 and
subsequent orders extending the same;
Affidavit of Service of Estela Sandoval;
Pregame LLC's Petition for an Order to Show Cause;
Order to Show Cause.
Despite being personally served with the court's Temporary Restraining Order on
August 16th, 2014 Mr. Karalis has continued to engage in conduct which is in direct
violation of that Order. The court has set a hearing for September 23, 2014 to allow Mr.
Karalis to show cause why he should not be held in contempt for his continued and
blatant violations of the TRO.

Article 6, I>BC!ion 6 of the Nevada Constitution specifically grants the district courts power
to issue writs of injunction. The basis for granting injunctive refref Is equity. Sherman v. Clark, 4
Nev. 138 (1 868).
The granting of restraining orders or injunctions is a matter of d'ISCI'etion.
Coronet Homes, Inc. v. Mylan, B4 Nev. 435, 437, 442 P.2d 901, 902 (1968), and Thorn v.

NRCP 65 recognizes three types of Injunctive orders: (1)
temporary restraining orders, (2) preliminary injunctions, and (3) pennanent injunctions. NRCP

In this case, the unique nature of the produd at issue - real time analysis and information
related to rrve sporting events means that once such information is lost to Pregame LLC it can
never be recovered. For example, currently the FIFA World Cup is being played in Brazil. The
Wortd Cup toumament itself happens only once every four years and the IndiVidual games within
the toumament are unique, one-time events that can never be duplicated. Upon Information and
belief Defendant Karalis is providing content related to the World Cup on an ongoing basis to a

In determining whether to grant either a temporary restraining order and/or a preliminary

Injunction a factor of controlling importance is "the balance of convenience or hardship"
562 (191 0). The courts do not always apply this factor however, when determining whether an
injunction should issue. "The equitable principle of relative hardship is available only to innocent
property rights.' Gladstone v. Gregory, 95 Nev. 474, 480, 596 P.2d 491 (1979). If both parties
engaged in inequitable conduct or if both parties acted equitable then, end only then, would the
cowt be required to go through the step of balancing hardships prior to issuing a temporary
restraining order or preliminary injunction. ld.

These two pages are irrefutable proof that your client continues to engage in
conduct which is in direct violation of each and every prohibition contained within the
Temporary Restraining Order which has been in place in this matter for several weeks.
My only purpose in sending this letter is to suspend any notion that you are not

Case No.: A-14703627

This follows my correspondence of yesterday regarding the above-referenced
case. More than 24 hours have now elapsed since I served you with the Preliminary
Injunction entered against Mr. Karalis which required him to immediately tum over
control of the Twitter account associated with the Twitter handle @VegasRunner to my
client and to provide all associated account information, including but not limited to, the
current operational password to my office. As of the writing and transmission of this
correspondence I have received no response from you.
Please be advised that if the foregoing information is not received at my office by
noon tomorrow I will file a supplement with the court outlining Mr. Karalis' outrageous
behavior in continuing to ignore the Court's duly issued orders and request that the
same be addressed at Tuesday's show cause hearing.

Re:

Case No.: A-14-703627

I have just discovered that the Twitter account for the twitter handle
@VegasRunner was deleted this morning.
Your client was required to provide the account information to me, including the
password, two days ago. Instead of complying with the court's order of which you have
been aware for several days Mr. Karalis has taken action in direct violation of the very
clear requirements of the Preliminary Injunction. Based upon your e-mail to me that you
were scheduled to meet with him and the untimely "opposition" served this morning I
must assume that he took such action upon advice of counsel.
If that is indeed the case, it was extremely poor advice. That account was an
asset belonging to my client. The Social Network Addendum which is the subject of this
suit makes that quite clear. The court's issue of a Temporary Restraining Order and
subsequent Preliminary Injunction in this case indicates that the court has made a
determination that my client has a reasonable likelihood of success on the merits of its
case. Your client's actions this morning are akin to burning down the house in a
property dispute case.
If lt is within your client's power to restore that account I suggest he do so

Introduction
Defendant John Karalis decided to walk away from his contractual obligations to Plaintiff
Pregame LLC on June 28, 2014 despite the fact that 3 years still remained on his second five
year contract with the company.
Instead, Karalis began immediately providing content to a direct competitor and otherwise
distributing content through various mediums in direct violation of the contractual rights of
Pregame who holds an exclusive license to distribute content produced by Karalis.
Pregame LLC sent Karalis a cease and desist letter via certified mail which Karalis
refused to accept. Soon thereafter Pregame initiated the instant case in an effort to enforce its
contractual rights.

Relevant Facts
Defendant Karalis admits that he entered into a contractual relationship with Plaintiff
Pregame LLC.
(See, Defendant's Motion to Re-Hear/Reconsider of Preliminary Injunction at
Page 3, lines 8-12) He further acknowledges the he granted Pregame an "exclusive license that
allows PREGAME to 'publish, display, reformat and distribute' the information JOHN provides."
(.!Q., at Page 3, lines 14-15)
He even admits that he unilaterally "terminated the parties'
contractual relationship on or about June 18, 2014." (!Q,, at Page 3,1ines 17-18).
According to his motion, Mr. Karalis retained counsel "on or about August 19, 2014" (!Q,,
Page 5 at Line 13-14, filed on 9/19/14).
On August 27th, 2014 Donn Prokopius, Esq. entered his appearance on behalf of
defendant John Karalis. (Exhibit "1 ")
On August 29th, 2014 the court issued its Order Extending Temporary Restraining Order
and Setting Hearing on Motion for Preliminary Injunction. (Exhibit "2")
On August 29, 2014, after receiving Mr. Prokopius' Notice of Appearance by mail,
counsel for the Plaintiff served Mr. Prokopius with the following documents by electronic and

(Exhibit "3")
Plaintiffs counsel requested and received a "read receipt" confinning that the e-mail and
the attachments were received by Mr. Prokopius's offrce. (Exhibit "4")

On September 11, 2014 the court held a hearing on Plaintiff's Motion for Preliminary
Injunction. Defendant and his counsel failed to appear despite the indisputable fact that notice of
the hearing had been provlded by Plaintiffs counsel (Exhibit "3" ) and the court itself. (Exhibit "5")

Jurisdiction over the Defendant has been established

Defendant's argument that the court lacked jurisdiction is not web founded. Jurisdiction
has been established over Mr. Karalis on this case In no fewer than three different ways.
A "plaintiff may establish personal jurisdiction over the defendant by a preponderance of
the evidence at an evidentiary hearing." Trump v. District Court, 109 Nev. 687, 692-93, 857 P.2d
740, 743-45 (1993) At both the hearing on September 11, 2014 and at the Hearing on Order to
Show cause on September 23rd, this court, after examining the evldence, detennlned that John
Karalis was personally served on August 16, 2014. (See, Minutes of September 23rd hearing.
attached hereto as Exhibit "6" and stating, in pertinent part, that "as to the servlce issue Court
Found there was sufficient information for the issuance of the Order to Show cause, and there
was proof of service on the original Temporary Restraining Order and the first Extended

Temporary Restraining Order.")

Furthermore, by filing his Answer and Counterclaim on September 11, 2014 Defendant
submitted to this court's jurisdiction. Specifically, because none of the 23 affirmative defenses
included in Defendant's Answer' assert the defenses of lack of personal jurisdiction or
insufficient service of process those defenses are deemed waived.
Hansen v. Ejght Judicial
District Court, 116 Nev. 650, 6 P.3d 982 (2000), ("Thus, to avoid waiver of a lack of jurisdiction
over the person, insufficiency of process, or insufficiency of service of process, the defendant
should raise its defense either in an answer or pre-answer motion")
Finally, Mr. Karalis consented to the jurisdiction of this court pursuant to an express
proVision of the Content Services Agreement on file in this case.
Specifically, paragraph 32
proVides, in pertinent part that "[a]ll actions and proceedings pertaining to this Agreement will be
filed and litigated exclusively in any state of federal court located on Clark County, Nevada.
Pregame and Content Provider (Karalis) expressly consent to the jurisdiction of these
courts .. ."
Personal jurisdiction over Mr. Karalis has been established through 1) the court's findings
after an eVidentiary hearing; 2) by the waiver inherent in the filing of an answer to the complaint
which fails to raise the affirmative defenses of lack of personal jurisdiction and insufficiency of
serVice, and: 3) by express consent pursuant to the clear language of a contract at issue.

Notice of the hearing on Preliminary lnlunction was provided to the Defendant

Pursuant to NRCP 5(b)(2)(B) serVice upon a represented party may be accomplished by
"[m]ailing a copy to the attorney or the party at his or her last known address. Service by mall is
complete on mailing." Service of the Motion for Temporary Restraining Order and Preliminary
Injunction and the Order Extending Temporary Restraining Order and Setting Hearing on Motion
for Preliminary Injunction was accomplished under this rule when, on August 29, 2014, Plaintiff's
counsel sent a letter to Mr. Prokop ius, both by U.S. Mail and Electronic mail which included a
27
28
See, Defendant's Answer and Counterclaim filed September 11, 2014.
1
copy of the Motion for Preliminary Injunction and the order setting hearing on the same for
2
September 11, 2014. (Exhibit "3")
3
Further, NRCP 5(b)(2)(D) provides, in pertinent part, that notice may be provided by
4
"[d]elivering a copy by electronic means if the attorney or the party served has consented to
5
service by electronic means. Service by electronic means is complete on transmission". By
registering with the court's a-filing service defense counsel consented to be served through that
7
system. Mr. Prokopius' office was electronically served with the Order Extending Temporary

Accordingly, it cannot reasonably be disputed that no fewer than two separate notices of
the September 11, 2014 hearing were provided to defense counsel.
12
13
The Requests for TRO and Preliminary Injunction were supported by the affidavit of the
Managing Member of Plaintiff Pregame, LLC
14
Defendant's motion claims that the motion for TRO and Preliminary Injunction was not
15
adequately supported by an affidavit. Specifically, Karalis' motion includes the bizarre statement
16
that:
17
18
19
20
21
22
23
24
25
26
"PREGAME's motion for a TRO was accompanied by a supporting

affidavit by someone calling himself 'RJ Bell.' 'RJ Bell' is an alias a fact admitted in paragraph 2 of RJ Bell's affidavit in which he
states that he uses the name 'professionally'- whatever that is
supposed to mean. RJ Bell's true identity is otherwise unknown
and therefore it is unknown whether the person purporting to be RJ
Bell who signed the affidavit is a bona fide representative of
PREGAME, a stranger, an imposter or a straw man." (See,
Defendant's Motion to Re-Hear/Reconsider of Preliminary
Injunction at Page 11, lines 17-24)
27
28
1
In fact, Plaintiff's motion was supported by the affidavit of "Randall J. Busack" and not
2
"RJ Bell" as inexplicably stated by Defendant. (Exhibit "7" ) The affidavit clearly identified Mr.
3
Busack as the Managing Member of Pregame LLC, Plaintiff herein. The affidavit further
4
explained the business that plaintiff is engaged in, the existence of a contractual relationship
5
between the Plaintiff and Defendant Karalis, the material terms of that contractual relationship,
6
Mr. Karalls' specific act of breaching the contract, that the Plaintiff suffers substantial and
7
irreparable damage as a result of the breach and the nature of that irreparable damage.
8
Defendant's feigned ignorance as to the identity of the affiant and his relationship to this case is

indicative of the games he continues to play all while openly defying the authority of this court.
Defendant's reliance on Webster v. Steinberg for the notion that an injunctive order which
does not include detailed factual findings is void is misplaced. In 1990 the Nevada Supreme
Court loosened the strict requirements of Webster in favor of a policy that provides that, as long
as the reasons for the imposition of an injunctive order are otherwise readily apparent elsewhere
in the record, then nullification is not appropriate. Las Veoas Novelty, inc. v. Fernandez, 106
Nev. 113,118, 787 P.2d 772, 775 (1990). Here, the court has been provided with the underlying
facts on multiple occasions including an evidentiary hearing on September 11, 2014. Also, the
first draft order submitted by Plaintiff's counsel for the original TRO included findings of fact and
conclusions of law that, while the court was made aware of them, were ultimately eschewed by
the court in favor of a more succinct order.
20
21
22
The court heard and accepted Plaintiff's offer of proof at the hearing on September 11,
2014
At the hearing on Preliminary Injunction on September 11, 2014- at which defendant
23
failed to appear despite Indisputable proof that his counsel of record had been twice provided
24
25
26
27
with notice - Plaintiff made an offer of proof to the court regarding each of the essential elements
of Plaintiff's request for a Preliminary Injunction and such offer was accepted by Judge Kosach
before he issued the Preliminary Injunction. (Exhibit "8") Plaintiff expended considerable time
and expense to appear at that hearing, including incurring fees to have a private Investigator
28

appear as a witness. Contrarily, Defendant has offered no plausible reason why he failed to
appear. The indisputable evidence is that his counsel was provided with multiple notices of the
hearing. in addition, the hearing date was noted on the court docket which is available on-line.
Once again, the defendant's conduct is consistent with his desire to ignore this situation and just
hope that it goes away.

relationship existed between the parties and that the defendant "terminated the parties'
contractual relationship on or about June 18, 2014" defendant's claim that he would have
defeated the motion for TRO is baseless. In fact, despite the imposition of the injunctive orders
in this case Defendant Karalis' still engaged in conduct which has already irreparably harmed
Pregame LLC.
As an example, instead of turning over the Twitter account information for
@VegasRunner as clearly required by the Preliminary Injunction and demanded pursuant

thereto by Plaintiffs counsel (Exhibit "9") Karalis instead DELETED that Twitter account on
September 19th, but not before siphoning off its 34,000 plus followers to a new account called
@greek_7777.
Only after yet another letter from Plaintiffs counsel (Exhibit "1 0") did the
defendant finally provided the password for the Twitter account "@greek_7777" later that day.

Even a cursory examination of that account clearly shows that Karalis
continues to distribute content in violation of the Preliminary Injunction including a tweet that he
was appearing on Fox Sports Radio on Monday, September 22, 2014 at 8:23 am. and "breaking
down #NFL #MNF and more" and multiple other examples. (Exhibit "12")
That conduct is in
direct violation of the prohibition contained in the TRO and the Preliminary Injunction against
"providing content, as that term is defined in the Content Services Agreement between the
parties, to any other entity." Indeed, despite the imposition of this court's Preliminary Injunction,
28
according to Karalis himself: "nothing's changed". (Exhibit "13")

Defendant's conduct does not constitute mistake. inadvertance, surprise or excusable

4
In support of his argument that the circumstances in this case "unquestionably constitute

surprise, mistake an( sic) excusable neglect as contemplated by NRCP 60{b)" Defendant claims
6
in the instant motion, filed on September 19th, that "[u]p to now he has not been represented by

that he actually retained counsel a month earlier, "on or about August 19, 2014."

"
professional representation with regard to this matter.

12
Defendant further claims that he should be granted a re-hearing because he was
13
unaware of the circumstances surrounding the issue of the TRO and, that had he been so
14
aware, he would have acted differently is belied by the conduct of the defense in this matter.

Specifically, for a period of more than 30 days, in a case where a TRO had been issued and
16
17
Plaintiffs counsel had sent no fewer than five letters to defense counsel there had been
communications from defense counsel. When some communication was finally forthcoming, it
18
came in the form of a 4 sentence e-mail with absolutely no substantive content. (Exhibit "14")
19
Meanwhile. Karalis continued to violate the express provisions of his contract, the TRO and
20
21
22
23
24
25
26
ultimately the Preliminary Injunction.

Likewise, the claim that Pregame has never "challenged the validity of John's cancellation
of the Content Services Agreement" is belied by the fact that Pregame sent a Cease and Desist
letter on June 30, 2014, just 12 days after Karalis breached the contract (Exhibit "15") and then
after he failed to respond sued him for the breach only 10 days later. It's hard to imagine a
stronger challenge than the one made by Pregame.
Allegations that Pregame was dilatory in serving Karalis are also unfounded. Once the
27
case was established in the court's system, including the filing of a peremptory challenge by

Pregame, Pregame's counsel originally arranged to have Karalis served by First Legal
Investigations. However it was ultimately determined that Karalis was on a vacation to the
Bahamas. (Exhibit "16") Once it was confirmed that he had returned to the jurisdiction First
Legal made 8 unsuccessful attempts to serve him at two different addresses between August 6th
and August 1Oth. (Exhibit "17") Based upon the futility of those efforts Pregame's counsel was
forced to hire a licensed private investigation firm to "stake out" both locations. Finally, on
August 16th Mr. Karalis was located outside his ex-wife's home and personally served. (Exhibit
"18")
This has been a common tactic of the Defendant throughout this dispute: Simply ignore
the situation and conduct his business as usual. He ignored a cease and desist letter which was
served pursuant to the terms of the written agreement of the parties (Exhibit"") via certified mail
on June 30, 2014 (even though it was sent to his current address AND his former address where
he was ultimately personally served). His counsel has ignored communications from Plaintifrs
counsel. Karalis has ignored the court's Temporary Restraining Order and Preliminary Injunction
and continues to until this day. (Exhibits "12" and "13")
Attorney's Fees
Defendant's request for attorney's fees is nothing short of madness. Defendant has done
absolutely NOTHING in this case except for ignore it and then, after finally realizing that Plaintiff
intends to enforce his contractual obligations, he files the instant motion asking for "do-overs.
Meanwhile, Plaintiff has been forced to expend thousands of dollars In attorney's fees and costs
in an effort to enforce ifs clear contractual rights, including preparation and attendance at a
Preliminary Injunction hearing at which Defendant failed to appear.
Defendant's failure to
respond to both the Plaintiff and the Court in any meaningful way is the only reason this case is
where it is and is the reason why Plaintiff has had to expend many more resources than should
have been necessary.
Under the contract Plaintiff is entitled to recover his attorney's fees for enforcing the
contract. Defendant's clear pattern of delay, defiance and obfuscation in this case warrants an
28
1
2
3
4
award of reasonable attorney's fees to PLAINTIFF for the unnecessary and ongoing work
created by Defendant's documented and willful failure to comply with his responsibilities in this
case. Accordingly, Plaintiff requests an award of its reasonable attorney's fees in dealing with
Defendant's intransigence. (Exhibit "19")

The conduct of Mr. Karalis both before and after retaining counsel has been consistent:
He has completely ignored the rights of the Plaintiff, he has ignored the prohibitions placed upon
him by the court in the form of a Temporary Restraining Order and subsequent Preliminary
Injunction, he has ignored orders setting hearings, he has ignored demands from Plaintiffs
counsel that he comply with the court's orders, even to this day he continues to ignore the
authority of this court and engage in conduct which is directly contrary to Its orders.
Taken as a whole the available information in this case thus far suggests that Mr. Karalis
has simply not taken this situation seriously. Beginning with his stated belief that he can simply
unilaterally "terminate" a written contract at will, his counsel's disregard for papers served upon
him, his willful contempt of court orders and continuing right through the ongoing conduct in
direct contradiction to not only his contractual obligations to the Plaintiff, but also to the duly
issued orders of this court, indicates that Mr. Karalis believes he can do whatever he feels like
doing, regardless of his legal obligations. Nothing in his motion rises to the level of "excusable"
neglect. If it is a "surprise" it is only because he has failed to pay attention. His only "mistake"
has been to underestimate Plaintiffs willingness to hold him to his obligations.

Defendant Karalis should not be rewarded for this conduct by allowing him "do-overs".
Likewise, Plaintiff, who has diligently pursued this case should not be punished by forcing lito do
again what it has already done. The motion should be denied.
Respectfully submitted this 6th day of October, 2014.

Re:

Case No.: A-14-703627
Dear Mr Prokopius :
It is my pleasure to represent Pregame LLC in the above-referenced matter.
am in receipt of your Notice of Appearance on behalf of Mr. Karalis.
Attached please find copies of the following documents related to this case:
Pregame LLC's complaint for breach of contract;
Pregame LLC's motion for temporary restraining order and
preliminary injunction:
Temporary Restraining Order dated August 1, 2014 and
subsequent orders extending the same;
Affidavit of Service of Estela Sandoval;
Pregame LLC's Petition for an Order to Show Cause;
Order to Show Cause.
Despite being personally served with the court's Temporary Restraining Order on
August 16th, 2014 Mr. Karalis has continued to engage in conduct which is in direct
violation of that Order. The court has set a hearing for September 23, 2014 to allow Mr.
Karalis to show cause why he should not be held in contempt for his continued and
blatant violations of the TRO.

In this case, the unique nature of the product at issue - real time analysis and information

Wor1d Cup tournament itself happens only once every four years and the individual games within
the tournament are unique, one-time events that can never be duplicated. Upon information and

In determining whether to grant elther a temporary restraining order and/or a preliminary

injunction "a factor of controlling importance' is 'the balance of convenience or hardship'

injunction should issue. 'The equitable principle of relative hardship is available only to innocent
property rights." Gladstone v. Gregory, 95 Nev. 474, 480, 596 P.2d 491 (1979). If both parties
engaged in inequitable conduct or ff both parties acted equltable then, and only then, would the

Prvgame, LLC PLAINTIFF'S PETITION FOR AN ORDER

TO SHOW CAUSE WHY DEFENDANT SHOULD NOT
BE HELD IN CONTEMPT (WITH AN ORDER
SHORTENING TlME) ... OEFENOANrS OPPOSITION TO
PLAINTIFF'S PETlTlON FOR AN ORDER TO SHOW
CAUSE WHY DEFENDANT SHOULD NOT BE HELD IN
CONTEMPT AND OEFENDANrS COUNTER MOTION
FOR HIS ATTORNEYS FEES AND COSTS Court noted
there were some legal Issues regarding procedure raised
in opposition to the Order To Show Cause, and requested
counsel address those Issues to detennine whether the
Order To Show Cause Hearing could proceed. Mr.
Prokoplus argued that his client was nevar served with the
Extended Temporal}' Restraining Order. Additionally, Mr.
Prokoplus argued that II was inappropriate lor Mr. Ga!Uhar
to have signed tho Atfidavft attached lo tho Order To
Show Cause, as It should be the party Mr. Karalla's
behavior was affecting lhatslgnod tho Affidavit. Mr.
Prokoplus concluded that Plaintiffs request for contempt
failed, as tho Affidavit did not contain spoclllc aUegaUons.
Mr. Galliher argued that thera was a sworn Affidavit from
the process server stating that Mr. Karalls was served
wtlh the Extended Temporary Restraining Order. As to the
of tho Affidavit, it spociOcally stated thai Mr.
Karalls continued to utilize Pregame LLC's Twitter
account for business purposes, which was prohibn.ed by
the Temporary Restraining Order. Court Found that the
Affidavit In this case was unclear as to whether counsel
had personal knowledge of Mr. KraUs's acllons, and
vague regarding the aftegations that Mr. Karalls was
providing information to other companies. As to the
Twitter acc::ount, wllh the attachment of the screen shot
from the Internet, along with counsers. Affidavit, Court
000076

Page 2 of2
Found there was enough to satisfy the Affidavit

requirement. As to the service issue, Court Found there
was suffldent information for the tssuance of the Order to
Show Cause, and there was proof of service on the

original Temporary Res1ralnlng Order and lhe fimt
Extended Temporary R!i$lraining Order; therefore the
issue became whether the adivity on the Twitter account
showed a v;olalion of the firsl Extended Temporary
Restraining Order. Pursuant to the Court's Findings,
COURT ORDERED Dafendanrs Motion to Slrike the
Order To Show Causa DENIED; Hearing to proceed on
lhe limited Issue of the Tweets whtch were posted. John
Karalls SWORN and TESTIFIED. Exhlbils presenled (see
worksheet). Arguments by counsel regarding Defendanfs
testimony and whether the burden for contempt had been
met. COURT Found there was a wHWul violation oflhe
Temporary Restraining Order, and Found Defendant was
In Contempt of Court. Pursuant to the Court's Findings,
COURT ORDERED an award of sandtons In favor of the
Plaintiff against the Defendant, as follows: $1,000.00, pluo
Plaintiff's attorney's fees and costs for having to bring the
Motion for Temporary Restraining Ortler. any payment of
the sanctions lo be STAYED pending a decision on

Re:

Case No.: A-14-703627

I have just discovered that the Twitter account for the twitter handle
@VegasRunner was deleted this morning.
Your client was required to provide the account information to me, including the
password, two days ago. Instead of complying with the court's order of which you have
been aware for several days Mr. Karalis has taken action in direct violation of the very
clear requirements of the Preliminary Injunction. Based upon your e-mail to me that you .
were scheduled to meet with him and the untimely "opposition" served this morning I
must assume that he took such action upon advice of counsel.
If that is indeed the case, it was extremely poor advice. That account was an
asset belonging to my client. The Social Network Addendum which is the subject of this
suit makes that quite clear. The court's issue of a Temporary Restraining Order and
subsequent Preliminary Injunction in this case indicates that the court has made a
determination that my client has a reasonable likelihood of success on the merits of its
case. Your client's actions this morning are akin to burning down the house in a
property dispute case.
If it is within your client's power to restore that account I suggest he do so

SIXTH AFFIRMATIVE DEFENSE

Counter-defendant alleges that at the time and place alleged in the Counterclaim,
Counter-claimant failed to pay any consideration for the contract which he now claims is
breached .
SEVENTH AFFIRMATIVE DEFENSE
Counter-defendant alleges that at all times relevant hereto, the alleged agreement
entered into between the Counter-defendant and Counter-claimant would be unenforceable and
in violation of the statute of frauds and therefore void.
EIGHTH AFFIRMATIVE DEFENSE
Counter-defendant alleges it has been necessary for the Counter-defendant to employ
the services of an attorney to defend this action, and a reasonable sum should be allowed
Counter-claimant as and for attorney's fees, together with it costs expended in this action.
NINTH AFFIRMATIVE DEFENSE
Pursuant to NRCP 11, as amended, all possible affirmative defenses may not have been
alleged herein insofar as sufficient facts were not available after reasonable inquiry upon the
filing of Counter-defendant Answer; and therefore, Counter-defendant reserves the right to
amend this Answer to allege additional affirmative defenses if subsequent investigation warrants
28
it.

TENTH AFFIRMATIVE DEFENSE

Counter-defendant alleges that it has not been guilty of malice, express or implied, such
that an award of punitive damages is improper.
NOTE: Some or all of the affirmative defenses above plead may have been pleaded for
purposes of non-waiver pending discovery. Other affirmative defenses may be added as
discovery continues.
WHEREFORE, the answering Counter-defendant prays for relief as follows:
1.
That Defendant takes nothing by way of his Counterclaim on file herein;
2.
For reasonable costs incurred in the defense of this litigation; and
3.
For such other and further relief as this Honorable Court may deem just and
proper in the premises.

That the Defendant's utilization of the Twitter handle "@Vef)asRunner" during said period
Civil contempt "consists or a party's disobedience to a specific and ddinHe court order by
I
l
failure to take all reasonable steps within the party's power to comply." RenrJ Air Raclnq Ass'n v. \
McCord, 452 F.3d 1126, t1:lO (9th Cir. 2006).
Disobedience or resistance to any
order... cons!llutes a civil contempt of court. See. NRS 22.010; Phillips

"the court may require the person to pay the party seeking to enforce the ... order, the
reasonable expenses. including, without limitation, attorney's fees incurred by the party as a
result of the contempt." NRS 22.1 00(3).
A party claiming civil contempt must demonstrate that (1) the alleged contemnor violated
a court order, (2) beycnd subslan!ial compliance,
not based on good faith and reasonable
interpretation of the order, (4) by dear and convincing evidence. United States v. Bright, 596
F.3d 683.694 (9th Cir. 2010) "The court has wide latitude in determining whether \here has been'
