⚫️::::YOUR ATTENTION PLEASE::::⚫️
Today infringement is rampant on the Internet facilitated by service providers who provide an almost uncontrolled forum. All artists are susceptible. While the DMCA protects the service providers, in most cases from suit, the perpetrators are not protected. In 2016 I discovered extensive infringement of my artwork, ‘’Metamorphosis’’ that was committed in England and the United States by Stephen Ormerod. I brought a lawsuit against him for his willful copyright infringement. I am pleased to announce that the Federal District Court in New York (Docket 18-cv-3020) granted judgment against Ormerod, in my favor for $100,000.00 for his willful and extensive copyright infringement. A copy of that Judgment is posted here. Ormerod is now serving a prison sentence in HM Prison in Preston, England. It is my intent to continue to protect my rights in the future. Thank you Sheila Wolk 💛💚💗💜💙

This is one of the things that messes me up mentally. I mean, I just cannot believe that we all live in a country where the justice system is so broken. We have to change it ourselves if we want a fair society. I understand that it will into be easy to do that, but I am fine. There is not much that I can talk to people about, in fact, no one even wants to hear the things that I have to say.

Our Laws are NOT broken..there is sooo much law that you really have t know what you are doing when going to court. Lawyers know what to sdo with their assistants..But I usually handle my own cases "Pro Se" which means om my own, I represent myself.
