ABS-CBN Files P127 Million Copyright Infringement Case against Willie Revillame

The nasty feud between Willie Revillame and his former mother network ABS-CBN continues..... Willie Revillame's new show "Willing Willie" is still up as it shakes the primetime block after ABS-CBN failed to stopped the airing of the program. 

The Kapamilya network fired another bomb by filing a P127-million copyright infringement suit against Revillame.

In the 33-page complaint filed before the Makati Regional Trial Court on Nov. 24, claimed that the parties in question “deliberately and intentionally imitated ‘Wowowee,’” a top-rating noontime show which Revillame previously hosted on ABS-CBN, thereby violating section 172.2 of the Intellectual Property Code.

Also included in the lawsuit is his company Wil Productions, Inc., and the president of his new home network, TV5's Ray Espinosa.

ABS-CBN claimed that "Willing Willie" is "undeniably a copycat of Wowowee".

Some of the similarities which ABS-CBN noted:

• Production number done at the beginning of the show
• “Big Time Ka” and “Willtime Bigtime” segments against “Wowowee”’s “Biga-Ten” and “Willie of Fortune.”
• “Willing Willie” dancers and other characters who previously appeared on “Wowowee”
• The lighting, camera angles, set and stage layout.

Aside from P127 Million, ABS-CBN wants a Temporary Restraining Order (TRO) and/or a Writ of Injunction to restrain Revillame, ABC and their other co-defendants from further producing and airing the infringing show Willing-Willie.

ABS-CBN failed to get TRO against Willie Revillame's New show; Charo Santos-Concio released Statement on court's decision

Willie Revillame won the first round of his legal battle against the Kapamilya network after ABS-CBN failed to get a temporary restraining order (TRO) stopping the airing of the TV5 new show "Willing Willie” hosted by Willie Revillame.

Judge Luisito Cortez of Regional Trial Court (RTC) Branch 84 said ABS-CBN "failed to discharge the burden of proving that there exists an urgent need for the issuance of a TRO to prevent great or irreparable injury that it might suffer."

According to the court, ABS-CBN's P486 million damage suit filed against Willie Revillame will continue and he must post P426 million million bond for any damage incurred by ABS-CBN by the airing of Revillame's show.

ABS-CBN President Charo Santos-Concio issued a statement after the court did not grant the company's petition for a TRO.

"Mga Kapamilya, ang ginawa po ni Willie ay isang paglabag sa kanyang kontratang pinirmahan sa ABS-CBN na magtatapos pa sa isang taon. Ang hangarin lang namin ay tuparin sana ni Willie ang kanyang obligasyon sa kanyang kontrata. Hindi po ba mahalaga na ipinaiiral natin ang paggalang sa mga kontrata.

"Kaya po nalulungkot kami na hindi nabigyan ng TRO ang ABS-CBN laban kay Willie Revillame.

"Huwag sana natin kalimutan na ang lahat ng ito ay nag-ugat sa walang galang niyang paghamon at pagbabanta sa ABS-CBN management.

"Naniniwala kami na mananaig ang katarungan at ang buong katotohanan. Patuloy namin ipaglalaban ang aming karapatan."

ABS-CBN’S Official Statement on the court's decision to defer judgement on its petition for a TRO vs. Willie Revillame

The Quezon City Regional Trial Court deferred ABS-CBN’s petition for a Temporary Restraining Order (TRO) against Willie Revillame over his upcoming TV5 show “Willing Willie”.

ABS-CBN has released an official statement...

ABS-CBN’s application for TRO has been submitted for resolution of the Judge, who ordered both parties to file all pleadings by Oct 15, after which he shall decide on the application.

ABS-CBN reiterates that the issue on Willie Revillame is all about honoring a contract. To the Kapamilya network, it is the ethical and right thing to do. It is a noble act of a person who values honesty and integrity.

So when Willie chose to ignore his contract with ABS-CBN, we were left with no choice but to ask the court to intervene. We have not been negligent in reminding Willie about his contract obligations and when he asked for the rescission of his contract, ABS-CBN chose to apply for a TRO and fight for what is right and honorable."

ABS-CBN seeks restraining order against Willie Revillame

Willie Revillame will be facing a maze before he can go and host his new show "Willing Willie" as  ABS-CBN filed a petition seeking to stop Willie Revillame in hosting his upcoming new show from the fast rising rival network TV5. 

The airing of TV5's "Willing Willie" will be on October 23.

[ABS-CBN]
The Kapamilya network asked the Quezon City Regional Trial Court to issue a temporary restraining order (TRO) and a writ of preliminary injunction to stop Revillame “from committing further violations to his contract with the network” by launching “Willing Willie.”

The show will reportedly air this month over TV5.

In a 38-page petition, ABS-CBN appealed to the court to restrain Revillame from creating or performing work in companies that are direct competitors of ABS-CBN.

It also asked the court to stop the TV host “from engaging in activities which are adverse to the interests of ABS-CBN."

ABS-CBN cited his contract with TV5 and show “Willing Willie,” which, it said, is very similar to the defunct "Wowowee" on ABS-CBN.

Revillame reportedly was hands-on in the creation and conceptualization of the variety and game show.

ABS-CBN also cited TV5’s official statement issued on September 17 confirming that Revillame has signed a contract with the network to host a variety and game show.

ABS-CBN asserted that Revillame is bound to comply with his current obligations under the agreement he signed with the Kapamilya network.

While the court has not decided on the judicial rescission case filed by Revillame, the TV host decided to enter a new contract and agree to perform in new shows.

"Revillame's actions show that he has decided for himself that he can do as he pleases despite the honorable court's taking cognizance of the issues," ABS-CBN stated in the petition.

In a statement from ABS-CBN Corporate Communication Head Bong Osorio, when Revillame chose to ignore his contract with the Kapamilya network, it was left with no choice but to ask the courts to intervene.

“The issue on Willie Revillame is all about honoring a contract. To ABS-CBN, it is not only the ethical and right thing to do. It is a noble act of a person or a company that values honesty and integrity. These values are reflected in the way we do business in ABS-CBN. We honor what we say and we expect our people, talents and partners to reciprocate the trust and honor we give them,” said Osorio.

“If a person or company gives honor and respect to a contract, conflicts can be avoided. Just like in a family, do you walkout simply because your attention was called?” he added.

Revillame violated the behavioral provisions of his contract when he threatened the ABS-CBN management during the May 4 episode of "Wowowee" with a resignation if management does not fire another artist of the network.

After weeks of hiatus, Revillame resurfaced and called for a press conference that he is rescinding his contract with ABS-CBN.

ABS-CBN has maintained that it is the aggrieved party, and as such, is the only one that can decide to end the agreement.

ABS-CBN previously filed  P486-million damage suit against Willie Revillame for breaching his contract with the Kapamilya network. ABS-CBN claims that his contract will expire in September 2011

Willie Revillame joins TV5 Kapatid network; ‘Willing Willie’ on Primetime

TV host Willie Revillame is now on high gear and ready to face all legal issues as TV5 network announced that Willie is now a certified Kapatid talent!

According to TV5 Chairman Manny V. Pangilinan (MVP), TV5 just "responded to the public clamor" and the name of Willie's new show is "Willing Willie".

TV5 issued an official statement:

"Fans, supporters and viewers of popular host Willie Revillame will surely have reason to rejoice because their idol will definitely return on TV as a certified talent of the newest and most aggressive broadcast network in the country, TV5. Now an official TV5 Kapatid, Willie will soon be hosting a new variety and game show entitled Willing Willie on primetime which will surely endear him more to his legions of followers all across the country and around the world. The program is managed by Wil Productions Inc. and is co-produced with TV5."

This will be a big challenge to other rival networks and will surely shake the primetime entertainment in Philippine TV.

ABS-CBN fires back with a P486-million damage suit against Willie Revillame for breaching his contract with the Kapamilya network. ABS-CBN claims that his contract will expire in September 2011.

ABS-CBN released statement on Willie Revillame's new TV5 show

TV host Willie Revillame is challenging the legalities of her contract with ABS-CBN as he prepares for his new show on TV5 and for ABS-CBN, the network is reminding him that he still has contract obligations with the Kapamilya network.

ABS-CBN Corporate Communications head Bong Osorio issued a statement via PEP, "Gusto naming bigyang diin na si Willie ay nakatali pa rin sa ABS-CBN at nakahanda kaming hamunin sa korte ang anumang kontrata na nauugnay sa kanyang produksiyon o pagpapalabas ng programa sa ibang network."

ABS-CBN warned rival networks not to ink an agreement with Revillame because of the host's existing contract with the Kapamilya network.

The new TV5 show is set to start next month and it is titled, “Willing-Willie Kami”.

His ABS-CBN contract will expire in September 2011.

Willie Revillame wants out of ABS-CBN!; Statement from ABS-CBN refusing to release Willie

TV host Willie Revillame finally decided that it's time to move on as he announced in a press conference held this afternoon that he is leaving his mother network ABS-CBN despite his existing contract until September 2011.

The controversial host felt that he was not treated fairly and he claims that ABS-CBN management did not fulfill the initial agreement that he would return to “Wowowee” on July 31.

In a letter sent by Willie to ABS-CBN chairman Eugenio Lopez III (dated August 9), he doesn't agree with the proposal of the network of putting him in a weekly pre-recorded TV program on Channel 2 and another show in Studio 23.

Revillame said, “I do this because I honestly believe that the company has not dealt with me fairly. The company acted in bad faith and in clear violation of our contract."

He all added that the network is “unilateral downgrading of his appearance from live to a pre-recorded program” and he accused the network of staging “well-coordinated attacks”.

Willie Revillame demanded once again that ABS-CBN must let him go!

BUT ABS-CBN doesn't want to release Willie Revillame and they issue a statement:

OFFICIAL STATEMENT ON WILLIE REVILLAME'S

PRESSCON PRONOUNCEMENTS

We take note of Willie Revillame's pronouncements in his press conference today.

Willie is bound to ABS-CBN by a contract until September 2011. He violated the behavioral provisions of his contract when he threatened the ABS-CBN management during the May 4, 2010 episode of Wowowee, with a resignation if management does not fire another artist of the network. His behavior was generally seen as a display of disrespect and arrogance, completely unacceptable to the Filipino public.

As the one who violated his contract, Willie has no right to have it unilaterally invalidated. Contracts are binding agreements that must be respected by the contracting parties involved. The one who violates the contract cannot be allowed to dictate whether it should continue or end. Otherwise, contracts will have no value and may be terminated based on whim.

ABS-CBN is the aggrieved party, and as such, is the only one that can decide to end the agreement.

Despite all that had happened, ABS-CBN was willing to continue with the contract. Willie however, refused to take responsibility for his actions.

ABS-CBN wishes to reiterate that it will hold Willie to his obligations under the contract which expires September 2011.

Expect more engaging legal drama from Willie and ABS_CBN.

 

ABS-CBN issued a statement about the rumors of Willie Revillame returning to "Wowowee"

Different speculations are roaming around the net about Willie Revillame returning to his show "Wowowee" after his indefinite leave.

ABS-CBN Management denies such rumors and issues an official statement on the issue. To quote Bong Osorio, Head of ABS-CBN Corporate Communications:

“Ang mga lumalabas na bali-balita tungkol kay Willie Revillame at sa Wowowee ay mga espekulasyon. Nag-usap na ang ABS-CBN Management at si Willie Revillame kung ano ang kanyang options o mga posibleng gagawin pagkatapos ng kanyang break. Wala pang napagkasunduan ang ABS-CBN at si Willie. Kung mayroon mang pagbabagong magaganap, ito’y opisyal na ipahahayag ng ABS-CBN sa takdang panahon.”

The whole controversy started with his infamous on-air tantrums when Revillame laid down an ultimatum to ABS-CBN to either fire entertainment journalist Jobert Sucaldito from the network or he resigns.

Different guest hosts temporarily hosted the show like Robin Padilla, Billy Crawford and Luis Manzano.

Do you think ABS-CBN will continue its principle of good ethics or they just accept Willie' tantrums due to the ratings and money that he generates for ABS-CBN?

Meryll Soriano doesn't want her father Willie Revillame to join politics

If some people are wooing controversial TV host Willie Revillame to go and enter the politics arena and run in next year’s Philippine national elections, her own daughter-actress Meryll Soriano is objecting to such idea.

Meryll doesn't want her father to join the wild world of politics and she feels it is another league that too much to handle.

She told abs-cbnNEWS.com, "We are all part of the country. But to be part of that (politics), you really have to be well educated. Kung magsasabi siya sa akin na mag-aaral siya, sige go. Pero kung papasok ka lang [just because you want] to help, well… (he) is already a philanthropist."

“I really don't want him to run at all,” she added. "Being in the government is very delekado for us, for our family and for him and mawawala ang novelty ng ginagawa nya. Ayoko po talaga."

In spite of Willie's popularity, I don't believe can win a position in national level. Other politician will just use him in their campaign.

Joey de Leon slams Willie Revillame with a poem

ABS-CBN's Wowowee TV host Willie Revillame is currently under heavy fire due to his remarks and tantrum that he made in his noontime show during the transfer of former President Cory Aquino's remains from La Salle Greenhills to Manila Cathedral in Intramuros, Manila last August 3. Willie want the video inset of the late President Cory Aquino’s transfer to be removed from the screen.

Eat Bulaga host Joey de Leon slams her rival host with a poem published in his column in Philstar describing Willie's "arrogance, stupidity, and unprofessionalism."

Here's the controversial poem....

The funeral cortege of former Pres. Cory Aquino: My tears came naturally

Wala na sa piling ng mga Pilipino,
Tinig ng awiting Mga Kababayan Ko,
At lumisan na rin noong isang Sabado,
Inang nagpalipad sa awiting Bayan Ko.

Ako’y sumasaludo, paalam Pangulo,
May isa ‘kong lihim, kay tagal itinago,
Sa lahat nang inabot kong mga namuno,
Tanging ikaw lang sa luha ko’y nagpatulo.

Marami ang nalungkot sa iyong pagyao,
Magalang ang lahat at puno ng respeto,
Nagpasalamat pa nga Kapamilya sa ‘yo,
Dahil kanilang himpilan naibalik mo.

Subalit ano itong nabalitaan ko?
Nangyari noong Lunes, a-tres ng Agosto,
Habang inililipat ang mga labi mo,
Ika’y parang nabastos sa isang TV show.

At ang napakasaklap at masakit dito,
Ang nambastos pa’y kapamilya ng anak mo,
Napanood ito ng tao at publiko,
Kakaunti na nga, ngunit lahat nahilo.

Sabi ng TV host na mainit ang ulo
Pagkakita sa video na kanyang kasalo,
“Sandali, meron akong ano… sa’ting ano…
Hindi naman sa ano,” nagkaanu-ano!

Ayon sa Internet, meron pa s’yang nasambit,
“Sana pakitanggal muna ‘yan sa’ting traffic…”
At ‘di maaalis sa iyong pag-iisip,
Ang parada ng patay ang pinaliligpit!

At dagdag pa daw ng naghahari-harian,
“I don’t think na dapat n’yong ipakita iyan…”
Nasaan naman ang paggalang, o nasaan?
Mga sinasabi natin minsa’y pag-ingatan.

At ‘di pa nangimi nang sumunod na araw,
Pinilit pa ring ginawa n’ya ay tama raw,
Mga nakarinig ‘di na nakagalaw
At ayon sa iba sila na la’y napa-wow!

“… Pero ako, totoo ‘ko eh … “, sabi kuno,
Totoo nga at totoo ring walang modo,
Pwede namang sabihin itong pa-sikreto,
Kaya’t wala na rin mga paliwanag mo.

“Kung ganyan, pakita na lang ‘yan!”, ang hamon pa,
Para bang ang prusisyon nila-”lang – lang” lang ba,
Ang pangasiwaan ay pinapili pa n’ya,
Sumunod ang himpilan, nung August 5 wala s’ya.

May mga komentong pwede nang pang-harapan,
“On camera” baga sa TV ang tawag d’yan
At kung sensitibo man ang gustong bitawan,
Pagpasok ng commercial, hintayin mo na lang.

Matutong magbaba muna ng mikropono
At saka idikta lahat ng iyong gusto,
Lagi kang mataas lahat daw takot sa ‘yo,
Ratings lang ang mababa — totoo ba ito?

The breaking news breaks your heart — at ‘yan ang bawi mo,
Nang mahalata mong sumablay ang pasok mo,
Pero sigurado ika’y maa-abswelto,
‘Di ba ikaw rin ang may-ari ng network n’yo?

Nung Hueves nag-apologize sa diario naman,
O, akala ko ba wala kang kasalanan,
Tapos ng angalan, sunod paliwanagan —
COMPLAIN before you EXPLAIN ka na naman!

O ito kaya ay isa na namang “glitch” lang,
Tulad ng “two-zero” ‘di na natin nalaman,
O ito ay maliwanag na kabobohan?
Sa tingin ng marami, mahirap lusutan.

Ang sabi ng iba — istupidong mayabang,
At giit ng iba — istupidong mayaman,
Mayaman man o mayabang ang tiyak diyan,
Napakayaman n’ya sa kaistupiduhan.

Buti pa ang apat na honor guards ni Cory —
Sina Malab, Laguindan, Rodriguez, Cadiente,
Walong oras tumayo sa ulan at viaje,
Ang lahat ay tiniis at walang sinabi.

Samantalang ikaw na may bubong sa ulo,
Komportable ka lang sa malamig na studio,
Nang kapirasong libing sa TV sumalo,
Angal at inis ang sumambulat sa iyo.

Maaari din namang pabayaan na s’ya,
Subalit ang nangyari’y mabigat talaga,
Namayapang pangulo’y huling paalam na,
‘Di mo pa pinagbigyan … hoy, nag-iisa ka!

At nais ko lang sabihin at ipagyabang
Sa mahigit na s’yam na libong tanghalian,
Sa limang pangulong sa Bulaga’y dumaan,
Kahit isa wala kaming nilapastangan.

The rivalry is burning up again!!!!!
