PLAINTIFF’S VERIFIED MOTION FOR
EMERGENCY HEARING FOR TEMPORARY INJUNCTION
Tease Lounge, Inc. (“Plaintiff”), by and through its undersigned
counsel, hereby files Plaintiff's Verified Motion for Emergency Hearing for
Temporary Injunction, and in support thereof states as follows:
1. Plaintiff is a corporation organized and existing under the laws of
the State of Florida, which operates an adult entertainment establishment
known as T’s Lounge. As part of the operation of the establishment,
Plaintiff hires various entertainers/celebrities to be featured entertainers.
2. Natalie Suleman (“Defendant”) has obtained notoriety and is also
known as “Octomom”. On or about June 3, 2012, Plaintiff entered into a
written Agreement (attached hereto as Exhibit “A”) with Defendant to
perform at Plaintiff's establishment.
3. Pursuant to the terms of the Agreement, Defendant agreed to
perform a number of shows at Plaintiff's establishment during a four day
period commencing on July 11, 2012 and terminating on July 14, 2012.4, The Agreement specifically indicated the type of dance shows
which Defendant agreed to perform.
5. Pursuant to the special terms and conditions of the Agreement,
Defendants performance at Plaintiff's establishment would be Defendant’s
“1* Featured Dance Appearance”.
6. The Agreement also provided that either party to the Agreement
would be permitted to cancel the Agreement by providing the other party
with thirty-five (35) days advance written notice of the event/appearance of
Defendant.
7. Defendant unilaterally cancelled the Agreement with Plaintiff. A
copy of the notice of cancellation and the confirmation sheet is attached
hereto as composite Exhibit “B”.
8. Since Defendant's first performance was to take place on July 11,
2012, Defendant’s notice to Plaintiff is untimely. Said notice was given
only thirty-four (34) days prior to the event/appearance of Defendant, and
therefore, Defendant is in breach of the Agreement with Plaintiff.
9. Such notice of termination caused Plaintiff to incur costs in
advertising Defendant’s performance at Plaintiff's establishment.
10. In addition, the exclusivity provision of the Agreement,
specifically paragraph 18, states that Defendant “shall not be booked or
advertised to appear at any Gentlemen’s Club within 50 miles of CLUB
within Ninety (90) Days, (Prior or Post) of the engagement date(s)”.
Plaintiff has discovered that Defendant is scheduled to appear at another
gentlemen’s club located in Hallandale, Florida on July 13", 2012, which
was one of the same dates that Defendant was to perform at Plaintiff's
establishment.
11. Attached hereto as Exhibit “C” is a copy of an advertisement that
appeared in a trade publication for the month of July, whereby Defendant’s
appearance is advertised on one of the same days on which Defendant was to
appear at Plaintiff's establishment.12. Plaintiff has notified Defendant of her breach of the Agreement (a
copy of said letter is attached hereto as Exhibit “D*), Defendant has failed
to respond to said letter.
13, Not only has Defendant breached the terms and conditions of the
Agreement with Plaintiff, but by Defendant agreeing to perform in: another
establishment so close in proximity to Plaintiff's, Plaintiff's damages are
unascertainable and Defendant’s actions shall cause Plaintiff irreparable
harm.
14, As there can be only one “1% Feature Dance Appearance”, it
would be impractical, if not impossible, to establish the damages to Plaintiff
resulting in the breach of the Agreement by Defendant and by Defendant
agreeing to perform at another gentlemen’s club so close in proximity to
Plaintiff's.
15. There is no possible way that Plaintiff can determine its damages
for the loss of the “1 Feature Dance Appearance”, especially due to the
fact that Defendant is adding insult to injury by electing to not only breach
her Agreement with Plaintiff, but also by selecting another gentlemen’s club
in such close proximity to Plaintiff establishment thereby causing additional
damages to Plaintiff.
16. The only way to preserve the status quo is for this Court to enter a
temporary injunction to prohibit Defendant from appearing at any
gentlemen’s club until this dispute is resolved between Plaintiff and
Defendant:
17. The issuance of a temporary injunction by this Court to prohibit
Defendant from appearing at any gentlemen’s club is the only way to avoid
this irreparable harm to Plaintiff,
18. The appearance by Defendant at a gentlemen’s club in such close
proximity to Plaintiff's establishment, will cause Plaintiff. immediate,
temporary and permanent irreparable injury, and Plaintiff has no other
adequate remedy at law.
23. Plaintiff would request that this Court conduct, an emergency
hearing to enter a temporary injunction since it is evident that Defendant has
