From AZCentral.com:
LOUISVILLE, Ky. - A Scottsdale-based gossip website has been hit with an $11 million judgment for libel and slander after posting false accusations about a northern Kentucky teacher who sidelines as a Cincinnati Bengals cheerleader.
The judgment against Dirty World Entertainment Recordings, which runs the site Thedirty.com, came Thursday after the site declined to answer a lawsuit brought by Sarah Jones, a high school teacher whose picture was posted on the site along with an accusation she had been exposed to two venereal diseases.
U.S. District Judge William O. Bertelsman added an annual interest rate of 0.25 percent to the $1 million in compensatory damages and $10 million in punitive damages.
An e-mail message sent to the operator of the website, Hooman Karamian, who uses the online name "Nik Ritchie," was not immediately returned Thursday morning.
Now that is a real ball breaker. Unlike Missouri, Texas and Kentucky don't have internet bullying laws yet that I'm aware of, so that judgement along with Kristen Creighton's is very interesting. No worries for Dirty World or Nik, I'm sure the Shayne Lamas site is pulling in a couple million a month by now.
Thanks Anonymous. Oh, and if anyone wants to submit me over to that site, please do so. It's time to be posted again. This shit isn't paying the bills, I need to switch my game plan up.
Update: It seems she sued the wrong company. Thanks CHEF and Shotty.
so he has lost 12.5 million that he doesnt have. sucks to be him right now.
ReplyDeleteYeah, because like Wopness says, even if he beats it it costs a shit ton of money to fight.
ReplyDeletei wonder if his wife is seeing him as a liability at this point?
ReplyDeleteProbably. Hey man, I'm going to send you a pic. Submit me over there. Make it ruthless.
ReplyDeleteTime to get paid homey.
we wont see any money from him in our lifetimes.
ReplyDeleteTrue, I'd like to get my name in the news though. I can act like I'm famous, or something like that.
ReplyDeletewe have a better chance of getting hit by a meteor than getting any lawsuit money from nikki.
ReplyDeleteFunny man. Or a better chance of dinosaurs coming back to earth.
ReplyDeletemaybe his reality show will be big time and he can be the next kardashian?
ReplyDeletedrew has a better chance of getting laid than we do of getting nik money.
ReplyDeleteThis makes me laugh so hard
ReplyDeleteyou should read some of the comments on his site about this situation hes in. they are pretty funny.
ReplyDeleteI am gonna check it out anon, this guys is a joke
ReplyDeleteomg, yeah sours, you could have your own reality show!!
ReplyDeletewtf is up with this pic though? I mean, I dont want to say anything too bad just in case the cheerleader decides to sue me, but who is that chomo behind her? And what is he doing to her? And why is she smiling about him standing there? I'd be terrified!
What's up Miami?
ReplyDeleteAnonymous:
ReplyDeleteI'm going to check the comments out now.
Kinkyb!tch:
ReplyDeleteChomo is going to sue you. I'm guessing it's her hairdresser.
not much spurs, how is everything with you bud
ReplyDeleteGoing good, thanks man. Just eating a hamburger.
ReplyDeleteso what happens when this chick finds out nik doesnt have 11 mill? does she just put a lien on everything he owns?
ReplyDeleteenjoy your lunch, this nik richie shit is funny
ReplyDeleteI'm still waiting to hear from Kristen about her lawsuit and attempts to collect.
ReplyDeletei can probably guess that he signed everything over to his brother.
ReplyDeleteI'm pretty sure at this point he just gets paid a salary. And I've never heard of Dirty World Recordings. Dirty World Entertainment yes, not not DWR.
ReplyDelete*but* not
ReplyDeleteNevermind, its DWE Recordings. Still, never seen DWER.
ReplyDeleteso theyre doing music now? well, they did music scams before already...but i think people already know about that and wont sign up with corbin again.
ReplyDeleteI'm not sure, it's probably just another front company under a different name. I think Kristen's suit was against Dirty World Entertainment LLC.
ReplyDeletehow many months until nik just drops off the face of the earth? im going with 9.
ReplyDeleteI'll go with another year, and there will be so many lawsuits it will be over.
ReplyDeletea year? yeah...maybe that much longer. i think that other chicks lawsuit was the crack in his armor, but this one is a full on ass kicking.
ReplyDeleteExactly.
ReplyDeleteman....i wish he would post some kind of reaction to this lawsuit on his site....or give an interview. something. i just want to see or hear him cry.
ReplyDeleteHe won't post any reaction on his site. Would be nice though, you're right.
ReplyDeletedo you think hes gonna cry himself to sleep tonight?
ReplyDeleteI think he's a socipath, so he doesn't care.
ReplyDelete*sociopath*
ReplyDeletelook what somebody posted on phx cl:
ReplyDeletehttp://phoenix.craigslist.org/evl/rnr/1920674630.html
That's funny. Did you post that?
ReplyDeleteThats funny anon
ReplyDeleteI bet he has funneled a good amount of money out of the company already, the company is probably gonna claim bankruptcy to not pay and it will start all over again under another company name
ReplyDeletei didnt post it. but is it pretty funny.
ReplyDeleteYep.
ReplyDeleteIt is funny.
ReplyDeletenik is claiming to be having a great day.
ReplyDeletehttp://twitter.com/NIKRICHIE
talk about irony.
He is a midget and he has shit on so many people. I am surprised he hasnt gotten a beating yet.
ReplyDeleteHe just left that comment an hour ago. Funny.
ReplyDeleteI think he might have taken a beating in the past.
ReplyDeleteI would watch someone tap him out, and Ari too
ReplyDeleteSpurs, you think any of the people who hate him because of the site have ever beat his ass?
ReplyDeletehe got beat up in vancouver and in vegas.
ReplyDeleteYeah, he has. I think Anonymous is right.
ReplyDeletei think they tried to ass rape him in vegas....then drew went and posted an ass kissing comment.
ReplyDeleteok guys...im out for a bit. be back later.
ReplyDeletelater Anon
ReplyDeleteSpurs, so someone kicked his punk ass, huh. How did people hear about it? Any pics?
ReplyDeletePretty sure everytime they get a judgment against an LLC, they bankrupt that LLC and sign the site over to a new one to avoid having to pay judgment.
ReplyDeleteYou can't do much about that, I have tried, unless you pierce the "corporate veil" to put individuals as responsible. Which itself is very hard to do with LLC's if they keep separate business accounts etc.
spur you have any good ideas for a reality show... My friend is a executive at E! says they want some new ideas. I saw you want to get out of the blogging business and you seem to be creative.
ReplyDeleteI'm betting Nik hasn't made much more money off the Dirty and his personal appearances that it took for him to get from one appearance to the next.
ReplyDeleteI think Rocket Queen's life would make a good reality show. Self humiliation, psycho behavior, frantic gold digging, excessive alcohol and pill use, topped off with a stolen hamster. What more could you want?
ReplyDelete11 million dollars thats alot of appearances
ReplyDeleteI'm betting Nik hasn't got a pot to piss in nor a window to throw it out of.
ReplyDeleteNo pics Miami.
ReplyDelete"Pretty sure everytime they get a judgment against an LLC, they bankrupt that LLC and sign the site over to a new one to avoid having to pay judgment."
ReplyDeleteI think you're probably right Oz. It's bound to catch up with them though.
"spur you have any good ideas for a reality show... My friend is a executive at E! says they want some new ideas. I saw you want to get out of the blogging business and you seem to be creative."
ReplyDeleteI didn't catch where that comment came from because I wasn't around, pretty sure that was sarcasm.
"11 million dollars thats alot of appearances"
ReplyDeleteThat's funny Q.
That would explain the old arguement that their is a difference between Dirty World and Dirty World LLC and Dirty World E, etc. that was had a while back when you linked up that old link from this site in the story about those black guys involved in that Chandler drug bust gone wrong...
ReplyDeleteOddly enough, that big fat black guy did mention stuff about music in his Dirty World ownership stuff on MySpace. I wonder if they do still have any link to Nik. You should email all of your findings to the reporters who do the stories on Nik/Quayle, Nik and this girl or even the guy from the New Times and see what they can dig up.
Look at Nik trying harder to be white. He dyed his hair blond.
ReplyDeletehttp://www.lamasrichie.com/lamasrichie/ben-quayle-wins-3rd-congressional-district-nomination/
Good idea kinkyb!tch.
ReplyDeleteThe blond hair he's sporting is funny.
ReplyDeletewhat a queerbait
ReplyDeletePretty sure that was Shayne's idea.
ReplyDeleteShayne and idea are 2 words that should never end up in the same sentence!
ReplyDeleteWhat's going on Queen Bee?
ReplyDeleteRough week my friend, sorry tto have had to flake on the fantasy fb thing, but Mon my good friend's boyfriend OD'd. They had a child a month ago and he was recently laid off from work. So sad. Whats going on in your world Spurs?
ReplyDeleteNot much, I started school today, didn't go because it was the first day. Have 3 classes T/Th and the one on MWF. I'm going to the one tomorrow. I'm just watching some tv now.
ReplyDeleteHey Spurs. Be cool, stay in school.
ReplyDeleteSo what else have I missed?
ReplyDeleteThanks Anonymous.
ReplyDeleteNot much. Well, we figured out the meaning of life the other day, but you missed it.
ReplyDeleteLittle under the weather today Spurs. You going to watch Jersey Shore tonight?
ReplyDeleteIt strange that the first judgement for Creighton was satisfied around 8/5/10 or so. You can look it up. I don't know if they settled for less, or if he shits money at night, but it's done. This new one, who knows!
ReplyDeleteProbably not Drew, I take it you are?
ReplyDeleteInteresting. I wonder how much they settled for?
ReplyDeletewhat's it called when a failure becomes more of a failure?
ReplyDeleteYes of course. Pretty crippling judgment on the dirty. I'm sure you have given your opinion in comments but please elaborate since I'm to tired to read above?
ReplyDeleteI don't know, what is it called?
ReplyDeletecouldn't think of the word...but guess it can just be referred to as "nik richied" from now on
ReplyDeleteKinda like "Rik Rolled".......
ReplyDeletelooks like they might actually get out of it...

ReplyDeleteCheerleader sued wrong company

An NFL cheerleader who thought she had won $11 million in a defamation judgment against a gossip website may have the result nullified because her lawyers sued the wrong company, politico.com reported Thursday.
Sarah Jones, a Cincinnati Bengals cheerleader and Kentucky teacher, meant to sue TheDirty.com after comments on the site in December suggested she had an affair with a player and also contracted two venereal diseases. The site is run by Scottsdale-based Dirty World LLC.
But due to a clerical error the complaint named the offending website as TheDirt.com, which is owned by Los Angeles-based Dirty World Entertainment Recordings.
U.S. District Court judge William O. Bertelsman on Wednesday ordered Los Angeles-based Dirty World Entertainment Recordings to pay $1 million in compensatory damages and $10 million in punitive damages for failing to respond to the lawsuit filed in February.
But it appears Dirty World Entertainment Recordings was incorrectly named in proceedings. Jones' attorneys should actually have been suing Dirty World LLC.
TheDirty.com founder Hooman Karamian was named in the complaint but said neither he nor his company was was ever served in the case.
What's up Oz?
ReplyDeleteWhat's up CHEF? Yeah, yesterday we were wondering what Dirty World Entertainment Records was.
ReplyDeleteA paralegal got fired behind that, best believe
ReplyDeleteThis is pretty fucking awesome.. Heh.. poor h00man.
ReplyDeleteNo doubt Oz.
