I am Aleksandar Skocajic, author of this article above. Thank you for your opinion you have posted more than a year ago. I am on the court now vs. FOX and UNIVERSAL, but jurisdiction is awful / disaster. You can contact me directly if you have anything more.

           Sincerely,                  Aleksandar Skocajic

Cordially, Naca Blumenthal

From the reason of pure copyright infringement and plagiarism,I
have sued FOX, UNIVERSAL and 7 film companies more, by the District Court here in my country.

I was approaching to the start of the trial at December 26,
2002, by the court here, where I have filed both lawsuit at Spring 2000.
The Court have sent the summons for the trial to all nine defendants :
TWENTIETH CENTURY FOX, FOX 2000, ORIGINAL FILM,DONNER/SHULER/DONNER PRODUCTIONS, UNIVERSAL PICTURES, JOSEPH M. SINGER ENTERTAINMENT (now : SINGER/JENSEN
ENTERTAINMENT), PACIFIC WESTERN (now :WALHALLA MOTION
PICTURES), MCA (VIDEO), and UNITED INTERNATIONAL PICTURES.
in the begining of December 2001 over Foreign Offices of Yugoslavia,
who have sent the official back letter to the court here in August 2002,
reporting that Yugoslav Embassy in the USA, in Washington, was informed them, that Embassy have officially delivered all nine summons and lawsuits v. all nine defendants to the US State Department for handling all those material to all defendants. Eight defendants, all from the USA didn't approaching to the court in the date of trial, – December 26,2002, and State Department didn't send any back information, did they and when they have handled the summons to the defendants. Only distribution film company UIP from London, England, was approaching to the court through their represented attorney.

Because those 8 defendants from the USA
didn't appear in the court and didn't send any answer, I assume that
they try to avoid their appearance to the court and I want to offer to
you your possible representation v. all 8 defendants by appropriate US
Federal court, and moving the case from here to the USA. For your
information I have finally found 242 identical or similar scenes from my
screenpaly MAGMA TOWN with FOX's film VOLCANO and about 80 scenes with UNIVERSAL's film DANTE'S PEAK.

I put in the lawsuits my request of $28 million for recovery sum to me from all 9 defendants for total gross of both
movies in the wide world for the year 1997. I have intention to give to
handling additional request to the court for about additional $20
million more for their earning from 1997 till 2002 for DVD and video sales.

Also, I have recently discovered that HarperCollins Publishers Inc. from New York published two books VOLCANO using also my screenplay MAGMA TOWN.

Here, regarding both paperbacks, I give to you the next notices :

- V O L C A N O – L.A. erupts in 1997
(writen from Jerome Armstrong and story by)
Novelization by Richard Woodley, published
through HarperPaperbacks in May 1997,
ISBN :0-06-101165-7 and,

- V O L C A N O – The Coast Is Toast !
(writen from Jerome Armstrong and story by)
Novelization by Cathy East Dubowski,
published through HarperTrophy in 1997,
ISBN :0-06-440690-3

12-50/002-8880209-3996827

Also, publishing company W H Smith from London, United Kingdom,
also has published book VOLCANO.

I have found new information about 3 books VOLCANO printed in
England :

ISBN : 0708940676
ISBN : 0006510485
ISBN : 0061011657

You can also find it if you go on web site
http://www.fantasticfiction.co.uk/books/n9/n45027.htm?authorid=8091
and open it with ENTER.

Trully, both books are little different written
than film VOLCANO, and also they are in some way different, regarding
each other.I have found that in film VOLCANO are about 140 identical
or very similar scenes with my script and that is the base of my
lawsuit v. FOX. In both your paperbacks it is less identical scenes with my screenplay than it is in film VOLCANO (probably J.Armstrong and both novelizators : R. Woodley and C.E. Dubowski have changed parts of plots and some scenes), but it stayed pretty much.

If you are interested about possible legal representation of this law case, please let me know.

I look forward to hearing from you !

Very truly yours,

Aleksandar Skocajic
