`
`Civil Action No.
`1:20-cv-02119-SDG
`
`Before the Court is Plaintiff’s Application for Default Judgment Against
`
`Defendants [ECF 30]. For the following reasons, the motion is GRANTED.
`
`I.
`
`Background
`
`Plaintiff Joe Hand Promotions, Inc. (Joe Hand) initiated this action on May
`
`18, 2020, against Defendants Bernard Hamilton, Vita Glover, and Phoenix Cigars,
`
`LLC.1 On June 23, 2020, Defendants moved to dismiss.2 On January 25, 2021, the
`
`Court entered an order granting the motion in part and denying it in part.3 It
`
`dismissed the claims against Hamilton, but declined to dismiss the claims against

`
`the other two Defendants.4 The Court directed them to respond to the Complaint,
`
`and gave Joe Hand leave to file an amended pleading.5
`
`On January 29, 2021, Joe Hand filed its Amended Complaint.6 Joe Hand
`
`specializes in distributing and licensing sporting events to commercial and non-
`
`residential establishments.7 It had exclusive rights to commercially license the
`
`audio-visual broadcast of the fight Manny Pacquiao v. Keith Thurman on July 20,
`
`2019 (the Program).8 Defendant Vita Glover is the controlling manager of
`
`Defendant Phoenix Cigars, LLC d/b/a Phoenix Cigar Lounge (the Lounge).9
`
`Glover and the Lounge purportedly took steps to avoid licensing the Program,
`
`instead obtaining it “through an unauthorized cable signal, satellite signal, and/or
`
`internet stream” for broadcast at the Lounge.10 Glover was allegedly serving

`

`
`and ability to supervise the display” and financially benefited from it.12
`
`Joe Hand asserts causes of action for cable and satellite piracy in violation
`
`of 47 U.S.C. §§ 553 and 605 (Count I); and copyright infringement in violation of
`
`17 U.S.C. §§ 106 and 501 (Count II).13 It seeks statutory damages and attorneys’
`
`fees, interest, and costs.14 On February 10, 2021, Defendants again moved to
`
`dismiss.15 On June 17, the Court denied the motion, directed Glover to answer the
`
`Amended Complaint, and directed the Lounge to appear through counsel and
`
`answer the amended pleading.16 Glover and the Lounge did none of these things,
`
`so Joe Hand moved for a clerk’s entry of default on July 9.17 The clerk entered the
`
`default the same day,18 and Joe Hand moved for default judgment on August 3.19

`
`August 27, with Glover again purporting to represent the Lounge.21
`
`II. Applicable Law
`a.
`
`Default Judgments
`
`Rule 55 governs default judgments. When a defendant “has failed to plead
`
`or otherwise defend, and that failure is shown by affidavit or otherwise, the clerk
`
`must enter the party’s default.” Fed. R. Civ. P. 55(a); Nishimatsu Constr. Co., Ltd., v.
`
`Houston Nat’l Bank, 515 F.2d 1200, 1206 (5th Cir. 1975) (entry of default judgment
`
`in favor of plaintiff warranted only if there exists “a sufficient basis in the
`
`pleadings for the judgment entered”).
`
`A default entered pursuant to Rule 55(a) constitutes an admission of all well
`
`pleaded factual allegations contained in a complaint. Beringer v. Hearshe, Kemp,
`
`LLC, No. 1:10-cv-1399-WSD-ECS, 2011 WL 3444347, at *2 (N.D. Ga. Aug. 8, 2011)
`
`(citing Cotton v. Mass. Mut. Life Ins. Co., 402 F.3d 1267, 1278 (11th Cir. 2005))
`
`(additional citations omitted). When considering a motion for the entry of default
`
`judgment, “a court must investigate the legal sufficiency of the allegations and
`
`ensure that the complaint states a plausible claim for relief.” Functional Prod.

`
`Trading, S.A. v. JITC, LLC, No. 1:12-cv-0355-WSD, 2014 WL 3749213, at *3 (N.D. Ga.
`
`July 29, 2014). See also Tyco Fire & Sec., LLC v. Alcocer, 218 F. App’x 860, 863
`
`(11th Cir. 2007). This includes a review of any affidavit or declaration submitted
`
`by the plaintiff. Frazier v. Absolute Collection Serv., Inc., 767 F. Supp. 2d 1354, 1362
`
`(N.D. Ga. 2011). Further, a defendant in default does not admit allegations relating
`
`to the amount of damages. Id. at 1365. But when the amount is “for a sum certain
`
`or a sum that can be made certain by computation,” the Court need not conduct a
`
`hearing before awarding damages. Fed. R. Civ. P. 55(b).
`
`b.
`
`Joe Hand’s Claims
`
`Federal law prohibits intercepting or receiving (or assisting in intercepting
`
`or receiving) a “service offered over a cable system, unless specifically authorized
`
`to do so.” 47 U.S.C. § 553(a)(1). It also generally prohibits the unauthorized
`
`interception and publication of radio communications, and unauthorized receipt
`
`of such communications for one’s own benefit. Id. § 605(a). Private rights of action
`
`exist for violations of these laws. Id. §§ 553(c), 605(e). The owner of a copyrighted
`
`work has the exclusive ability to authorize its public display. 17 U.S.C. § 106(5).
`
`The holder of that exclusive right can sue for infringement. Id. § 501(b).
`
`In addition to this primary liability, in BUC International Corp. v. International
`
`Yacht Council Ltd., the Eleventh Circuit indicated that there can be secondary
`
`
`
`
`
`

`

`Case 1:20-cv-02119-SDG Document 33 Filed 03/28/22 Page 6 of 17
`
`liability, noting that “vicarious and contributory copyright infringement are well
`
`established principles derived from common law.” 489 F.3d 1129, 1138 n.19
`
`(11th Cir. 2007). The court described contributory infringement as causing or
`
`contributing of another’s infringing conduct. Id. Vicarious infringement, by
`
`contrast, “arises when the defendant profits directly from the infringement and
`
`has a right and ability to supervise the direct infringer.” Id. (cleaned up). Nafra
`
`Worldwide, LLC v. Home Depot U.S.A., Inc., 2013 U.S. Dist. LEXIS 201841, at *12
`
`(N.D. Ga. Aug. 29, 2013) (Totenberg, J.) (concluding that, “[t]o subject a corporate
`
`defendant to individual liability for copyright infringement, a party must show
`
`that the defendant had the ability to supervise the copyright-infringing-activity
`
`and had some financial stake in it.”) (citing S. Bell Tel. & Tel. v. Assoc. Tel. Directory
`
`Publishers, 756 F.2d 801, 811 (11th Cir. 1985)).
`
`III. Discussion
`a.
`
`Joe Hand is entitled to default judgment against the Lounge.
`
`The Court has made clear several times that, while Glover is entitled to
`
`represent herself, the Lounge must be represented by counsel authorized to
`
`practice in this Court.22 A corporate entity can only appear through legal counsel,
`
`and cannot appear pro se or be represented by a pro se party. Palazzo v. Gulf Oil
`
`
`22 See generally ECF 22, at 7–8, 12–13; ECF 28, at 5–6, 8.

`
`Corp., 764 F.2d 1381, 1385 (11th Cir. 1985) (“The rule is well established that a
`
`corporation is an artificial entity that can act only through agents, cannot appear
`
`pro se, and must be represented by counsel.”); LR 83.1(E)(2)(b)(I), NDGa
`
`(“[A] corporation may only be represented in Court by an attorney . . . .”). To date,
`
`no counsel has appeared on behalf of the Lounge despite it having had substantial
`
`time to obtain an attorney.23 The Lounge is therefore in violation of this Court’s
`
`Orders and the Local Rules. And, the Court has already held that the well-pleaded
`
`allegations of the Amended Complaint state a claim against the Lounge.24
`
`Accordingly, Joe Hand is entitled to entry of default judgment against it.
`
`b.
`
`Joe Hand is entitled to default judgment against Glover.
`
`Despite having been properly served, being twice directed to answer, and
`
`having had substantial time to do so, Glover has consistently failed to answer the
`
`Amended Complaint.25 In her untimely response to Joe Hand’s motion for default
`
`judgment, Glover finally attempts to defend against the pleading’s allegations by
`
`arguing ignorance of the law: “[the Lounge] had no knowledge that they were to
`
`

`
`obtain a commercial license prior to airing” the Program.26 She also disclaims any
`
`personal involvement in the infringing activity.27
`
`It is now far too late for Glover to try to answer the Amended Complaint
`
`without showing good cause or excusable neglect for her failures to timely do so
`
`and to comply with the Court’s orders. Fed. R. Civ. P 6(b)(1). The clerk has entered
`
`default and Glover has not sought to set that default aside. Fed. R. Civ. P. 55(c).
`
`Nor does her response to the motion for default judgment provide good cause for
`
`the Court to do so. Id. She had more than ample time to comply with the Court’s
`
`Orders and answer the Amended Complaint but did not.
`
`As with the Lounge, the Court has already held that the well-pleaded
`
`allegations of the Amended Complaint state a claim against Glover.28 And she
`
`admits all of the well-pleaded allegations in the Amended Complaint by virtue of
`
`her default. Beringer, 2011 WL 3444347, at *2.
`
`i.
`
`Count I
`
`To show violations of these statutes, Joe Hand must show the following
`
`elements: that Defendants “(1) intercepted or received the Program, (2) did not

`
`additionally held that “willfulness under section 605 is established by the fact that
`
`an event is broadcast without authorization.” J&J Sports Prods., Inc. v. Space
`
`Millennium 2013, LLC, No. 1:15-cv-1768-MHC, 2015 WL 13357907, at *3 (N.D. Ga.

`
`1838067, at *4 (S.D. Ga. May 3, 2010). Joe Hand has established these elements.30
`
`
`29 The Court notes there is a circuit split concerning whether §§ 553 and 605 cover
`both satellite transmissions and cable programming transmitted over a cable
`network. See Joe Hand Promotions, Inc. v. Jones, No. 1:18-cv-3702-TCB, 2019 WL
`5280971, at *2 (N.D. Ga. Apr. 18, 2019) (following reasoning from Third and
`Seventh Circuits and holding “§ 605’s plain language prohibits commercial
`establishments from intercepting and broadcasting satellite programming,
`while § 553 addresses interceptions that occur through a cable network”). The
`Eleventh Circuit has yet to address this issue. Id. But, as noted by the Court in
`Jones, the difference is immaterial for the purposes of ruling on this motion for
`default judgment.

`
`ii.
`
`Count II
`
`To show copyright infringement, a plaintiff must establish (1) ownership of
`
`a valid copyright and (2) that the defendant infringed an exclusive right granted
`
`by the Copyright Act. 17 U.S.C. § 501; Architects Collective v. Pucciano & English,
`
`Inc., 247 F. Supp. 3d 1322, 1337 (N.D. Ga. 2017). “Intent or knowledge is not an
`
`element of copyright infringement” because it is a strict liability offense. Thornton
`
`v. J Jargon Co., 580 F. Supp. 2d 1261, 1275 n.6 (M.D. Fla. 2008) (quoting Fitzgerald
`
`Publ’g Co. v. Baylor Publ’g, Co., 807 F.2d 1110, 1113–14 (2d Cir. 1986)). Joe Hand
`
`meets both elements. It had a valid copyright and Defendants infringed it by
`
`showing the Program without permission. 17 U.S.C. §§ 106(3), (4).31
`
`Entry of default judgment against Glover on both Counts is appropriate.
`
`c.
`
`Damages
`i.
`
`Count I
`
`For the violations of 47 U.S.C. § 553 and 47 U.S.C. § 605 alleged in Count I,
`
`Joe Hand seeks statutory and enhanced damages. Under Section 553, statutory
`
`damages from $250 to $10,000 may be awarded for each violation. 47 U.S.C.
`
`§§ 553(c)(3)(A)(ii) Where there has been a willful violation for commercial
`
`advantage, the Court may increase the statutory award up to $50,000. Id.
`
`
`31 ECF 6; ECF 16-3; ECF 24, ¶ 16.
`
`
`
`
`
`

`

`Case 1:20-cv-02119-SDG Document 33 Filed 03/28/22 Page 11 of 17
`
`§ 553(c)(3)(B). If the violator was not aware that its acts constituted a violation, the
`
`Court can reduce the award to not less than $100. Id. § 553(c)(3)(C).
`
`Under Section 605, the Court may award statutory damages from $1,000 to
`
`$10,000. Id. § 605(e)(3)(C)(i)(II). For willful violations for commercial advantage,
`
`the Court may increase the damages up to $100,000. Id. § 605(e)(3)(C)(ii). If the
`
`violator was unaware that its acts were a violation, the Court may reduce the
`
`damages to not less than $250. Id. § 605(e)(3)(C)(iii). Where a court “determines
`
`that a defendant’s conduct has violated both sections 553 and 605 of the
`
`Communications Act, a plaintiff may recover damages under only one of those
`
`sections.” Just Fam, 2010 WL 2640078, at *2. See also J & J Sports Prods., Inc. v.
`
`Herbelaine, Inc., No. 1:15-cv-1595-CC, 2016 WL 9045967, at *4 (N.D. Ga. Feb. 8, 2016)
`
`(“Recovery under both §§ 553 and 605 is not permissible.”). Thus, whether
`
`Defendants here violated Section 553 or Section 605 is immaterial.
`
`1.
`
`Statutory damages
`
`Although Joe Hand seeks a fixed sum of damages—the statutory maximum
`
`available—the Court has substantial discretion in setting the appropriate amount.
`
`Cable/Home Commc’n Corp. v. Network Prods., Inc., 902 F.2d 829, 852 (11th Cir. 1990)
`
`(stating that courts have “wide latitude . . . in awarding statutory damages.”).
`
`Here, the Program was purportedly displayed on two television sets in a facility
`
`
`
`
`
`

`

`Case 1:20-cv-02119-SDG Document 33 Filed 03/28/22 Page 12 of 17
`
`with a maximum capacity of about 70 people.32 There were never more than 25
`
`people in attendance at the same time.33 The Lounge promoted its display of the
`
`Program in advance, presumably to attract customers, but did not charge a cover
`
`to patrons.34 Nor is there any indication that the Lounge increased the prices it
`
`charged for food, beverages, or cigars during the broadcast.35 The sublicensing fee
`
`Joe Hand would have charged in advance is $1,475.36 Given these facts, the Court
`
`finds an adequate statutory damage award to be that sublicense fee.
`
`2.
`
`Enhanced damages
`
`Joe Hand also seeks enhanced damages. “Under both [Section 553 and 605],
`
`the district court is given discretion to award enhanced damages where there is a
`
`finding of willful conduct done for purposes of commercial advantage or private
`
`financial gain.” Khin, 2016 WL 9046677, at *5 (citing 47 U.S.C. §§ 553, 605). To
`
`determine if a defendant’s willful conduct justifies increased damages, courts
`
`consider several factors “(i) repeated violations over an extended period of time;
`
`(ii) substantial unlawful monetary gains; (iii) advertising of the broadcast;
`
`

`
`(iv) charging of a cover charge or premiums for food and drinks; or (v) plaintiff’s
`
`significant actual damages.” Just Fam, 2010 WL 2640078, at *3.
`
`Here, there is evidence that the Lounge advertised its broadcast of the
`
`Program and Glover (by virtue of her default) admitted to having been the
`
`controlling manager at the time. This is sufficient to show a willful violation of
`
`Sections 553 and 605. As such, some enhanced damages are warranted. District
`
`courts in the Eleventh Circuit routinely calculate enhancement awards by
`
`multiplying the statutory damage amount by three. See, e.g., Joe Hand Promotions,
`
`Inc. v. Jones, No. 1:18-cv-3702-TCB, 2019 WL 5280971, at *3 (N.D. Ga. Apr. 18, 2019);
`
`Khin, 2016 WL 9046677, at *5; Herbelaine, 2016 WL 9045967, at *5; Blanchard, 2010
`
`WL 1838067, at *4; Just Fam, 2010 WL 2640078, at *3. “The formula of three times
`
`the statutory award is common . . . where the establishment is a first-offender, did
`
`not charge for entry, did not charge a premium on drinks or food during the
`
`broadcast, and did not advertise the broadcast.” Blanchard, 2010 WL 1838067, at *4.
`
`Other than having advertised, these rationales apply to Defendants. As such, the
`
`Court finds that a three-times multiplier of the statutory damage award ($4,425) is
`
`appropriate and will act as a sufficient deterrent. The total statutory damages
`
`award for Count I is therefore $5,900.

`

`Case 1:20-cv-02119-SDG Document 33 Filed 03/28/22 Page 14 of 17
`
`ii.
`
`Count II
`
`Under Count II for copyright infringement, Joe Hand seeks statutory and
`
`enhanced damages pursuant to 17 U.S.C. §§ 106 and 501. Statutory damages may
`
`range from $750 to $30,000 “as the court considers just.” 17 U.S.C. § 504(c)(1).
`
`Willful violations can incur damages up to $150,000. Id. § 504(c)(2). Courts in this
`
`district have found the sublicensing fee plus the average residential charge each of
`
`the viewing patrons would have paid to view the Program at home to be an
`
`appropriate measure of statutory damages. See, e.g., Jones, 2019 WL 5280971, at *4.
`
`In determining whether actions were willful for purposes of enhanced
`
`damages, a court looks to “whether the infringer had experience with previous
`
`copyright ownership, prior lawsuits regarding similar practices, or work in an
`
`industry where copyright is prevalent.” Marshall v. Marshall, No. 08-cv-1420, 2012
`
`WL 1079550, at *25 (E.D.N.Y. Mar. 30, 2012); Superior Form Builders, Inc. v. Dan
`
`Chase Taxidermy Supply Co., 74 F.3d 488, 496–97 (4th Cir. 1996). The Court also has
`
`wide discretion under the statute in determining the appropriate damages award
`
`for copyright infringement. Cable/Home Commc’n Corp., 902 F.2d at 852.
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`

`

`Case 1:20-cv-02119-SDG Document 33 Filed 03/28/22 Page 15 of 17
`
`Here, no more than 25 people viewed the Program at any time.37
`
`Multiplying that figure by the price that would have been charged to
`
`“independents” for viewing the program—$12.50—yields $312.50. Adding the
`
`sublicensing fee of $1,475, Joe Hand is entitled to statutory damages of $1,787.50
`
`on its copyright infringement claim. There is no evidence to support any of the
`
`factors to which courts look to impose an enhanced damages award. Accordingly,
`
`Joe Hand is not entitled to such damages. The total statutory damages award for
`
`Count II is therefore $1,787.50.
`
`iii. Costs and fees
`
`Because liability has been established under §§ 553 and 605, Joe Hand is
`
`entitled to its reasonable attorneys’ fees. It requests $4,232.50 in fees and has
`
`submitted a copy of the detailed billing statement from its counsel showing each
`
`task performed and counsel’s hourly rate.38 The Court finds that the requested
`
`attorneys’ fees are reasonable. As such, Joe Hand is entitled to $4,232.50 in
`
`attorneys’ fees. In addition, within 14 days after entry of this Order it may submit
`
`a bill of costs to seek its recoverable costs. 28 U.S.C. § 1920.

`
`iv.
`
`Joint and several liability
`
`Defendants are jointly and severally liable to Plaintiff for all damages,
`
`attorneys’ fees, and costs awarded in this Order. A person is vicariously liable for
`
`satellite or cable piracy if he “had a right and ability to supervise the violations,
`
`and . . . had a strong financial interest in such activities.” Blanchard, 2010 WL
`
`1838067, at *3. The same vicarious liability test applies for copyright infringements.
`
`BUC Int’l, 489 F.3d at 1138 n.19 (“Liability for vicarious copyright infringement
`
`arises when the defendant profits directly from the infringement and has a right
`
`and ability to supervise the direct infringer, even if the defendant initially lacks
`
`knowledge of the infringement.”). Joe Hand alleges—and, by their default,
`
`Defendants admit—that Glover was “acting as the controlling manager” of the
`
`Lounge on the date of the broadcast, supervising the display of the Program, and
`
`had a strong financial interest in the illicit broadcast.39 These allegations provide a
`
`sufficient basis for vicarious and, therefore, joint and several liability on default
`
`judgment.

`
