LiveVideo.AI Fights Recommended Dismissal of Skydance/Paramount Suit

LiveVideo.AI is fighting a magistrate judge's recommended dismissal of its claims against National Amusements and its president, Shari Redstone, related to Skydance Media's purchase of Paramount Global. In an objection last week (docket 1:24-cv-06290), LiveVideo.AI told the U.S. District Court for Southern New York that U.S. Magistrate Judge Barbara Moses' report and recommendation -- which, along with dismissal of the suit, called for LiveVideo.AI and its counsel to face monetary sanctions and for an injunction to prevent LiveVideo.AI from further "frivolous" claims (see 2508130001) -- omits antitrust violations and acts of security fraud that have come to light recently. It said the recommendation wrongly turns "harmless docketing issues into case-ending defaults" and recommends sanctions "despite colorable, good-faith arguments."
