BillyVance 34 #1 November 19, 2009 For December 2, 2009, at 2:30 pm. Document here: http://www.1800skyrideripoff.com/nashville.pdf Note that the cover page reads vertically, but the rest are horizontal, just the way it was scanned. Basically, this case will address the proliferation of Skyride signs and stickers all over city property and right of ways. Now despite their best efforts to rationalize their actions "because everybody does it", this case is going forward mainly because of their continued arrogance and behavior, especially following the TV news stories that were aired about the Skyride scam. Sure, many companies have posted signs and stickers on city property and right of ways, but I've personally never seen anybody do it like these Skyride supporters. Not even close. The hammer is coming.

It is going to add up in the millions of dollars range. Possibly 8 figures.

Krip 2 #6 November 20, 2009 Hi BV Bummer couldn't get the link to workNo to worry. Is there's still time for a 11th hr out of court settlement. I'm serious Is it slyrides fault that a unknown disgruntled former employee stole slyrides national adverising material and spread it all over NashvilleVersion 2 Slyrides competition printed up unauthorized advertising material with slyrides name on it and littered Nashville with that stuff to make slyride look bad. Your honor the state hasn't proved their case, no physical evidence DNA, fingerprints, body fluids etc and we request all charges be dismissedHmmm I wonder what info was on the link One Jump Wonder Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I.E. for example, O.J. Simpson's criminal murder trial resulted in acquittal, likely due to the greatest assembly of defense lawyers in history, but he was found liable in the subsequent civil trial. And besides, I don't think anybody outside of Skyride would stoop low enough to do what you said in version 1, not even ex-employees.

JohnRich 4 #8 November 20, 2009 If the city has done their homework, they will have tracked down the printer that produced these signs and stickers, and will have a copy of the order for those materials, showing Skyride as the purchaser. But these may be routine court filings that are a dime-a-dozen that the city doesn't spend that much time on. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
captain1976 0 #9 November 20, 2009 The relief is for the removal but would it entail an order not to do it again? Appears to me if Skyride does not take them down then it might be a criminal matter or at least contempt. If someone is trying to get even with Skyride, they will simply wait until the court order is signed and start putting them up again.

Dave As I understand the fine would be $50/day per sticker/sign, and that there are in excess of 500 of them out there. It doesn't take much of a math-a-magician to see $25,000 a day adding up fairly quickly!Experience is what you get when you thought you were going to get something else.

Driver1 0 #16 December 1, 2009 From what I am hearing, the legal people in Nashville have taken extra precautions to keep the sacrificial lambs from getting drug in to it, and I have also heard that they are well prepared for the Cary Shell Game. I for one hope that's the case. Go get 'em guys!There will be no addressing the customers as "Bitches", "Morons" or "Retards"! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I did find out that the judge assigned to the case is a no-bull-shit judge. He won't put up with any bullshit from the Skyride people.

So, according to Skyride, because they're based in Georgia, they are therefore allowed to violate the city codes everywhere they want outside their home state? That's the same bad attitude that has them held in such disrepute already... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
