Someone was stupid enough to not show up at a civil trial? What's interesting about that? Of course the judge will enter a default ruling. He certainly isn't going to defend it himself so a default ruling is the answer. |

I find it interesting that: 1. This is the first case to be ordered closed. Legally that is a very big deal as the company/person (in this case "karaoke chicks") can no longer petition on the case to ask for reconsideration from the court. 2. Forfeiture of Sound Choice DISCS was ordered. 3. The higher judgement amount of $44,000 per system. 4. The ruling that 'karaoke chicks" was in violation of FUDTPA. (FLORIDA DECEPTIVE AND UNFAIR TRADE PRACTICES ACT) |

I don't know about the closed part, but I believe it is standard procedure to award what was asked for in the case. Again, no one argued against it so the judge rules for what was asked for. That isn't big news.. |

I bet the defendant thought there would only be a small judgement ordered and realized they were going to lose. |

Some people think that if they don't show, it will be forgotten about. If the Defendant has a legal excuse (in the hospital or some sort of emergency, with proof), they may be able to appeal. Being on vacation, the alarm didn't go off, or no babysitter are not legal excuses. Mr Boo, I guess you didn't read the sections of laws cited by the Plaintiff to make their case. Whether or not the Defendant shows up, the Plaintiff still has to prove its case. |

I think Slep-Tone has been allowed to go too far and has overstepped their boundaries as a vendor. That is ALL they are. They are Karaoke peddlers and they have gotten way too powerful. Were I in government I would go after them and work to get some laws changed. |

So go into government and make your changes but to get there will require work. |

...So, are these the same chicks that are from Naples, Florida? The ones that are on this Social Network: https://www.facebook.com/Karaoke.in.Naples ...or some different ones? I don't know? Not from around that area. |

The legal documents say ...Deana Jennings DBA "the Karaoke Chicks" so it would appear that you found the correct FB page |

Well, looks like they were still posting as of a couple of days ago. Wonder if they're still running shows since they didn't show up in court? Noticed they were showing the Chartbuster Certified Seal or at least it was on their website. |

Very Surprised by this. They wouldn't even let me sing a particular song at their show because they didn't have multiple discs with that song and the other rig was being used somewhere else. I had sung the song at one of their other shows on a previous visit but at the second location, that song wasn't part of the library and they wouldn't or couldn't play the song from my disc either. It seemed to me that they were trying to dot every I and cross every T but I guess that wasn't good enough for the top notch invetigating teams of Sound Choice....or one of their competitors ratted them out with no evidence just for spite or to screw the competition? |

well the original suit was filed over 2 years ago and I guess "the top notch investigating teams of Sound Choice" had enough legal proof for a judgement to be filed. What I wonder about is why they failed to show up for the trial ? to fight for 2 years and then not show up the day of the trial seems weird to me. Wish the paperwork from legal discovery was available. |

Not necessarily, the suit could be amended to the estates of the parties. Just because one dies, it doesn't mean the end to a case in civil court. No more than your debts go away if you die without the debts being insured. |

But without access to the evidence and without the evidence being defended, nothing was proved. |
