RICHARD P. LIEBOWITZ, LIEBOWITZ LAW FIRM, PLLC, Appellants, ARTHUR USHERSON, Plaintiff, -v.- BANDSHELL ARTIST MANAGEMENT, Defendant-Appellee.1, 6 F.4th 267

Summary

HOLDINGS: [1]-In this copyright action, the district court did not abuse its discretion in imposing sanctions under 28 U.S.C.S. § 1927 and Fed. R. Civ. P. 16(f) because the attorney repeatedly violated court orders, lied under oath to the district court, and brought and maintained this case in bad faith. The district judge's factual findings — including the findings of bad faith — were adequately supported by the evidence in the record and by the district court's judgments of witness credibility.
