Cross Complaint by Ben Hakim, night club promoter, against Hakkasan LV, LLC.
Los Angeles-based nightclub promoter Ben Hakim has filed a cross complaint against Hakkasan LV LLC and Hakkasan LTD in U.S. District Court in the State of Nevada.
In court documents Hakim alleges that Hakkasan and its agents - Khalifa Al-Mehairi (Abu Dhabi Investment Council), Khadem Al-Qubaisi (managing director of International Petroleum Investment Company), Neil Moffitt (CEO Hakkasan), Danny Silberstein (EVP Operations, Hakkasan) Alex Cordova (EVP Marketing, Hakkasan) and their assistants have have engaged in a systematic and willful anti-competitive business practices, conspiracy to restrain trade and monopoly, by "exploiting monopoly power to control the market for nightclub services" and using copyright lawsuits to dismantle the third party promoter system.
In the claim (filed pro se - on their own behalf, without a named legal representative) Hakim states that his company Prime Nightlife, LLC have been acting legitimately as third party affiliate promoter for Angel Management Group (the precursor to Hakkasan Group LV, LLC) selling tickets and VIP access to HK owned nightclubs via direct contact with AMG management and also via AMG ticketing portals VenueDriver.com and TicketDriver.com.
In the underlying complaint, it appears that Hakkasan LV LLC and Hakkasan Group LTD LLC sued Mr. Hakim for trademark infringement related to web properties he uses to facilitate his business of promoting AMG/Hakkasan/Light Group VIP sales. Mr. Hakim claims that the original lawsuit is part and parcel of a pattern of litigiousness, aimed to cut third party nightlife promotors out of Hakkasan's business.
Hakim is seeking permanent injunction against Hakkasan LV LLC and Hakkasan LTD to allow him to continue operating his business plus statutory and punitive damages of at least $5 million dollars.
