Hunter's Specialties Wins Judgements Over Unauthorized Use Of Johnny Stewart Sounds

Over the course of the past year Hunter's Specialties has obtained court judgments and injunctions against three separate companies for unauthorized use of its copyrighted Johnny Stewart sound recordings.

The copyright infringements included said companies playing the copyrighted sounds on their web sites and allowing the sounds to be downloaded from their sites. There were also unauthorized sales of hand-held and remote calling devices loaded with the copyrighted Johnny Stewart sounds.

The companies in question have admitted infringing on Hunter's Specialties valid copyrights and have agreed to remove the sounds from their web sites, refrain from further infringing activity, make payments to Hunter's Specialties, and in some instances destroy inventory of electronic callers using the infringing sounds.

"Johnny Stewart sounds are recognized as the purest, most authentic sounds on the market" said Hunter's Specialties Co-CEO David Forbes. "Our consumers are very important to us and we are committed to producing high quality products through our Johnny Stewart line. We will continue to actively protect the hard work and dedication that goes into the technology, design and development of these products. Hours of hard work went into creating the Johnny Stewart sounds and we will continue to protect the copyrighted Johnny Stewart sound recordings and enforce our legal rights."
