We're live with Axamonitor's Carlos Pedraza to break down the news this morning that Alec's lawyer – Mike Mehrman – has quit citing a conflict of interest… The post Alec's Lawyer Quits – The Latest on the Axanar Legal Battle appeared first on Trekzone.
It's been close on five years since we first heard the name Axanar, and there's still been no follow up to the critically acclaimed Prelude to Axanar. Probably because all of the key players moved on long ago and one man continues to suckle from the teet of generous and loyal followers. Axamonitor's Carlos Pedraza is back for our second part of this catch up. The post A Major Fracture, Lawsuits Aplenty and Still No Fan Film : The Tale of Axanar appeared first on Trekzone.
It's the Star Trek Fan Film that's been promised for five years. After putting our coverage aside for eighteen months, it's time to check in with Axamonitor's Carlos Pedraza to see if any progress has been made. The post Checking in on Axanar appeared first on Trekzone.
Axamonitor.com editor Carlos Pedraza joins Michael Hinman to talk about libel and accuracy in the media. It all comes on the heels of the primary subject of Axamonitor stories — Star Trek: Axanar producer Alec Peters — threatening Pedraza with a cease and desist.
Michael Hinman welcomes back Axamonitor editor Carlos Pedraza this week to talk about the latest developments in the wold of the failed fan-film "Star Trek: Axanar." This time, the project's producer, Alec Peters, has filed a lawsuit against his one-time director, Robert Meyer Burnett, claiming he's owed more than $40,000, plus damages for defamation. What is this suit all about, and why does it seem both Michael and Carlos don't believe there isn't much holding this lawsuit together, at least not in Georgia.
From November 2018, AxaMonitor editor-in-chief joins host Michael Hinman to talk about where the infamous fan-film project-turned-massive-copyright-lawsuit Star Trek: Axanar is today. Also popping in is Russ Haslage, the man behind a new streaming service, Odyssey.
With just 11 days before the start of a copyright infringement trial, Axanar Productions and Alec Peters announced they had settled the lawsuit brought against them by CBS and Paramount Pictures. It was a case that had taken many twists and turns, ultimately revealing in court filings that the "Independent Star Trek Film" was out of money, having spent $1,400,000.00 with nothing to show for it. Joining us to talk about the settlement is screenwriter and producer Carlos Pedraza--the principal behind AxaMonitor.com--the fact-checking and reporting that was created in the wake of the lawsuit against Axanar Productions and Alec Peters. He is also a former educator, Associated Press writer, and Fan Film Producer---three past lives which have all added a unique and wonderful perspective to his coverage of this whole mess. We'll discuss what this agreement means for the beleaguered production and what will happen to the film itself. Plus, we'll discuss the potential ramifications for Star Trek fans who donated to the crowdfunding and what recourse they might have. We'll also pose questions to Carlos from our Official Facebook Group, Camp Khitomer! SPECIAL THANKS We can't thank FIVE YEAR MISSION enough.
