I am writing to you on behalf of Twentieth Century Fox Film Corporation and its related entities (collectively "Fox"). Fox is the exclusive owner of copyright, trademark and other intellectual property rights in and to the television series American Dad (the "Series"). This popular Series is currently airing on Fox Broadcasting Channel.
It has come to our attention that you own and operate the Website at htttp://********.com (the "Website") which offers downloads of episodes of the Series.
The Website creates consumer confusion because users encountering it will assume that Fox sponsors, endorses, or authorizes the content thereon, when it in fact does not. Accordingly, the Website violates Foxâs trademark rights and constitutes unfair competition under the Lanham Act. See 15 U.S.C. § 1114 and § 1025. Moreover, your use of Fox's copyright images from the Series constitutes copyright infringement under U.S. law, and entitles Fox to recover its actual damages, statutory damages up to US$150,000 per copyright infringed, your profits, Fox's attorneyâs fees, and court costs. See 17 U.S.C. §§502 â 505.
We, therefore, demand that you immediately:
1. Remove all references to American Dad and to any other television series or motion picture produced by Fox from htttp://********.com;
2. Cease all use, display or distribution of all copyrighted material from or related to American Dad and any other television series or motion picture produced by Fox;
3. At your own expense, assign the htttp://********.com URL to Fox;
4. Identify the total revenue that htttp://********.com has generated to date by advertising or other means, and,
5. Confirm in writing to the undersigned no later than May 14, 2010, that you shall fully and promptly comply with each of the foregoing demands.
Should you fail to comply with the above demands by the close of business on May 14, 2010 we will consider taking all appropriate action against you without further notice to you.
This letter is without prejudice to Foxâs rights and remedies, all of which are expressly reserved.
