I found this on a newsgroup that I am on. I’m not really sure where the
person found this but thought it was interesting.

Ex-Monkee Mickey Dolenz asks, “Who could possibly be interested in
this story that has been told so many times?” That’s a comment he made
on the subject of a made-for-VH1 movie about his life as one of the
Monkees, back in the mid-sixties.

Dolenz, who’s working as director on “Boy Meets World”, “Pacific Blue”
and other television shows, prefers to look forward rather than back; he
would rather talk about his life behind the cameras.

When the Beatles-inspired moptops found their series canceled back
in 1968, Mickey relocated to England, spending fifteen years there
“reinventing himself as a television director”.

Dolenz allows that he might be interested in directing the Monkees
biopic but adds, “I have moved on, a number of times. Would you
want to talk about what you were doing thirty years ago all the time?”

Michael Nesmith won his lawsuit with PBS – watch for news in your local area! Maggie reports that the total is actually 47 million.

From: monkeebiz@prodigy.com ( MAGGIE MCMANUS)

And here’s the full press release!

FEDERAL COURT JURY FINDS PBS GUILTY OF FRAUD
AND AWARDS $46 MILLION TO EX-MONKEE MICHAEL NESMITH

Los Angeles — In a verdict in U.S. District Court for the
Central District of California in a case entitled PBS, et
al. v. Pacific Arts and Michael Nesmith, et al., Case No. CV
95-0403 BQR, the Honorable Brian Robbins presiding, a nine-
person federal court jury unanimously found that the
venerable PBS had committed fraud, and awarded ex-Monkee
Michael Nesmith and his company Pacific Arts nearly $46
million in compensatory and punitive damages.

The verdict stemmed from Michael Nesmith’s distribution of
the PBS Home Video Library in the early 1990s, including
such programs as Masterpiece Theater, Nature and Ken Burns’
Civil War. Nesmith, who started a small video distribution
company known as Pacific Arts following his Grammy Award-
winning music video Elephant Parts in the 1980s, took on the
task of establishing a PBS Home Video line in 1990. After
licensing the PBS logo from PBS in February 1990, Nesmith,
through Pacific Arts, independently licensed dozens of PBS
programs directly from producers and single-handedly
established the now familiar “Silver Top” PBS Home Video
Line, spending millions to do so. By 1992 the PBS Home
Video Line was such a resounding success that PBS lavished
Nesmith with awards and public accolades, publicly stating
that he had succeeded “beyond their wildest dreams.”

But success in terms of sales volume did not translate into
profits. By late 1992, the high cost of marketing and
rights acquisition, coupled with the extraordinary start-up
costs necessary to establish this new and untested venture,
led Nesmith to decide to sell the Library, then estimated to
be worth between $10 and $15 million dollars. Fearing that
a sell-off of the Library to various distributors might be
the “death knell” of the PBS Home Video Line, PBS pleaded
with Nesmith not to sell the Library, and promised to work
with him to recapitalize the business if he stayed the
course. As inducement for him to do so, PBS promised in a
letter of February 12, 1993 that if the recapitalization
effort failed, PBS would cooperate with him in a “prudent
and flexible approach to properly winding down activities in
connection with the PBS Home Video Label,” and in no event
would it cause a “cataclysmic disruption of distribution.”
Internal PBS notes discovered during the trial revealed
that, as Nesmith testified, this meant that PBS would
support a sale of the Library and a wind down or liquidation
of the business which might take as long as two years.

Instead, PBS did exactly the opposite of what it had
promised to do in its letter of February 12, 1993. Under
the auspices of due diligence for the recapitalization
effort, PBS agents were permitted open access to the books
and records of Pacific Arts by Nesmith. But as internal PBS
memoranda revealed, PBS “looked at virtually all [Nesmith’s]
producer contracts for the purpose of determining the
termination potential for each title.” Days later, a
schedule of how to terminate every license in Nesmith’s
Library was circulated at PBS, and PBS began “quietly”
soliciting other distributors to take over the Library, the
underlying rights to which PBS now intended to own itself.

Although not one distributor other than Nesmith had been
prepared to take on the “daunting task” of establishing a
PBS Home Video Library in 1990, by the Summer of 1993, as a
direct result of Nesmith’s efforts to build the Library from
scratch, PBS found literally a dozen distributors who were
now interested. PBS did not tell Nesmith about these
potential buyers, choosing to keep this information “quiet.”

Next, PBS prepared a 3-page script to be read to producers
with titles in the PBS Home Video Library to solicit and
coordinate them in a mass termination of the rights
underlying Nesmith’s Library. The mass termination was
scheduled to occur on Monday, Columbus Day, October 11, 1993
in what came to be known at the trial as the Columbus Day
Massacre. Columbus Day was chosen because, as the PBS
script explained, “since federal courts are closed,” Nesmith
would not be able to take Pacific Arts into a Chapter 11
bankruptcy to try to stop the mass terminations. The script
also warned that no one should terminate earlier than
planned because that would tip off Nesmith who could then
run to bankruptcy court and tie up everyone else. And in
all events, the producers were told to “terminate not later
than 10 a.m. Tuesday morning.”

To keep Nesmith occupied while PBS was coordinating the
Columbus Day Massacre, PBS instructed its agents and
executives to meet with Nesmith and his staff to assure them
of their good faith and continuing negotiations toward
recapitalization, while at the very same time, PBS was
reading the script to all of the rights holders and
coordinating the mass terminations. PBS executives
testified that it would have been “stupid” to tell Nesmith
what they had planned for him, although one outside
consultant for PBS testified that what PBS did was highly
unethical. Nesmith testified that had he known that PBS
would not honor the promises made in PBS’ February 12, 1993
letter, but instead was planning the Columbus Day Massacre,
he would have filed a Chapter 11 proceeding “in a New York
minute.”

Having kept Nesmith occupied in phony negotiations while the
termination calls were being made, PBS’ plan worked. On
October 11, 1993 and for days thereafter, it “rained”
termination notices at Pacific Arts, and Nesmith’s Library
was decimated. PBS terminated its logo agreement and
demanded millions, eventually suing Nesmith and Pacific
Arts. PBS’ Chief Financial Officer admitted that PBS did
indeed cause a “cataclysmic disruption” of distribution, and
PBS’ General Counsel testified that what occurred was not
the promised orderly wind down.

Immediately thereafter, PBS acquired for itself the rights
to programs formerly distributed by Nesmith, often at no
additional cost beyond what Nesmith had already paid.
Turner Home Entertainment agreed to distribute the PBS Home
Video Library at retail, and PBS kept the direct-mail
operation in-house. Out of the ashes of Pacific Arts, PBS
built a $27 million a year video business, accounting for
fully 7% of its gross revenues according to PBS annual
reports.

In its unanimous verdict, the jury found PBS liable for
breach of contract, intentional misrepresentation (fraud),
intentional concealment (fraud), negligent
misrepresentation, and interference with contract. It
awarded $14,625,000 to Pacific Arts for the loss of the
value of the Library, plus $29,250,000 in punitive damages.
It awarded $3 million to Nesmith personally, including $2
million in punitive damages.

The case was tried on behalf of Nesmith and Pacific Arts by
the trial team of Henry Gradstein and Bruce Van Dalsem of
Gradstein, Luskin & Van Dalsem. According to Gradstein:
“The verdict established that in court, everyone is
accountable, even when cloaked with the imprimatur of
respectability. We are all equal in front of the jury, and
the simple and yet profound question is whether one person
has treated another person fairly and honestly. In this
case, the jury found that PBS did not treat Nesmith fairly
and honestly, and it sent a message to Congress that
something is terribly wrong at PBS. What makes the verdict
all the more extraordinary is that Nesmith and his company
were actually the defendants in the case while pursuing a
counterclaim. The jury unanimously rejected PBS lawsuit
and found in favor of each and every one of my clients
counterclaims, for a verdict of nearly $46 million.”

>From the Reuters news service, as reported on the Excite website:

LOS ANGELES (Reuters) – Michael Nesmith, a former star of “The
Monkees” TV series and pop group, has won $46 million in damages in a
lawsuit against the Public Broadcasting Service over the rights to a
videotape library of PBS programs.

In a verdict reached late Monday and announced Tuesday by Nesmith’s
lawyer, a federal court jury unanimously found PBS liable for breach
of contract and fraud. PBS said it would fight the verdict.

Nesmith alleged in his lawsuit that PBS promised in 1993 to help save
his Pacific Arts distribution business. Pacific Arts was deeply in
debt after establishing the “Silver Top” PBS Home Video Library,
which distributed such programs as “Masterpiece Theater” and Ken
Burns’ “Civil War” documentary series.

Nesmith alleged that the network convinced producers of those
programs to terminate their distribution contracts with Pacific Arts
and sign them over to PBS. The network then found new distributors
for the Home Video Library and built a $27 million business around
them, he alleged.

“It’s like finding your grandmother stealing your stereo,” Nesmith
said. “You’re happy to get your stereo back, but it’s sad to find out
your grandmother is a thief.”

Nesmith added: “They lied to me, they cheated me, they made an
attempt to get the catalog dishonestly. They were unethical and
duplicitous.”

Stu Kantor, director of corporate communications for PBS, said the
network disagreed with the verdict and would fight it in court.

“PBS believes that the facts and the law in the case merited a
verdict in its favor,” Kantor said. “PBS will vigorously contest the
verdict.”

Asked if PBS would appeal the verdict, Kantor said: “We will take
every option, including filing motions to set aside the verdict.”

The jury awarded Nesmith’s Pacific Arts distribution company $14.6
million in compensatory damages and $29.2 million in punitive
damages. Nesmith personally won $1 million in compensatory damages
and $2 million in punitive damages.

Nesmith, 56, whose mother invented Liquid Paper correction fluid,
became famous in the 1960s as a member of the Monkees, a made-for-
television pop foursome who starred in a TV series and the big screen
film “Head,” which also featured Jack Nicholson. The Monkees, who
included Mickey Dolenz, Davy Jones and Peter Tork, also staged
concert tours.

PBS Ordered To Pay $47M to Nesmith

.c The Associated Press

By ROBERT JABLON

LOS ANGELES (AP) — The Public Broadcasting Service must pay nearly $47
million to ex-Monkee Michael Nesmith and his defunct company for defrauding
him in a home video deal that sank the firm.

A federal jury decided Monday that PBS went behind Nesmith’s back to steal the
home video rights to such popular fare as “Sesame Street” and the Ken Burns
documentary “The Civil War” while promising to keep his faltering firm
afloat.

Jurors rejected PBS’ breach-of-contract lawsuit that claimed Nesmith owed the
nonprofit corporation millions of dollars. They upheld a counterclaim of
fraud, breach of contract and contract interference.

“It’s like catching your grandmother stealing your stereo,” Nesmith said
through a publicist. “On one hand, you’re happy to get the stereo back. On
the other, you’re sad to find out your grandma’s a thief.”

Stu Cantor, a PBS spokesman, said the association of public television
stations will appeal.

“PBS firmly believes that the facts and the law in the case merited a ruling
in our favor and we are frankly shocked at the verdict,” he said, reading a
statement from PBS headquarters in Alexandria, Va.

The case is the latest controversy over PBS’ aggressive new moneymaking
techniques. In the mid-1990s, as Congress threatened deep funding cutbacks,
PBS turned to the marketplace, offering among other things expanded commercial
spots to corporate donors.

Nesmith, 56, was the hat- and sideburns-wearing member of the Monkees, a 1960s
music and TV sitcom sensation.

Nesmith’s company, Pacific Arts, made a deal in 1990 to distribute the PBS
Home Video Line. He licensed the PBS trademark and obtained home video rights
to dozens of programs from their producers.

“Pacific Arts spent $8 million breaking the market, convincing stores to give
up shelf space for this, putting up kiosks in Wal-Marts, things like that,”
said Bruce Van Dalsem, a Nesmith lawyer.

By 1993, the videos were selling well, but Nesmith’s company was losing money
because of the high costs. He decided to sell the rights to the accumulated
video library, which could earn up to $15 million and allow him to pay off
royalties and other business debts, the lawyer said.

PBS agreed in writing to help him recapitalize the business or, if that
failed, cooperate in slowly winding down the company to avoid disruption,
Nesmith said.

While meeting with Nesmith and his staff to reassure them of their good faith,
PBS officials were busy soliciting a dozen other potential distributors,
Nesmith said. They also convinced the producers of the shows to terminate
their distribution contracts with Pacific Arts en masse, Nesmith claimed.

PBS obtained the video distribution rights, split them with Turner Home
Entertainment and now reaps $27 million per year from the business, Van Dalsem
said.

Claiming he owed them millions, Nesmith was sued by PBS, Ken Burns’ company,
public stations WNET-New York and WGBH-Boston and by Children’ Television
Workshop, which created “Sesame Street.”

He countersued and the cases went to trial before a single jury on Jan. 4. The
jury ruled PBS must pay the other plaintiffs what Pacific Arts owed them.

Jurors awarded more than $14.6 million to Pacific Arts for the loss of the
value of the video library and nearly $29.3 million in punitive damages.
Another $3 million was awarded to Nesmith personally.

The Nesmith PBS lawsuit is reportedly on the front page of many newspapers today, including the LA Times, New York Times and Variety.

LA Times
Former Monkee Wins $47 Million From PBS Network
By ANN W. O’NEILL, Times Staff Writer

The public television network–known for Big Bird,
“Masterpiece Theatre” and fund-raising telethons–cheated
former Monkee Michael Nesmith in a home video deal and must
pay him nearly $47 million, a federal jury in Los Angeles has found.
The Public Broadcasting Service initially sued Nesmith and his
defunct Santa Monica-based Pacific Arts Corp. over royalties from
the prestigious PBS logo, which Nesmith had licensed as he began
to build and distribute a video library of the network’s most popular
programs.
At the end of a five-week trial, the nine-member jury
unanimously rejected the PBS claim and instead found that the
network had defrauded Nesmith. Jurors agreed that after sales
perked up, PBS went behind Nesmith’s back and stole away the
rights to the programs. The verdict was reached Monday and
announced Tuesday.
A PBS spokesman said the network was “shocked at the
verdict” and would appeal vigorously.
Nesmith and his lawyer, meanwhile, had plenty to say about
their courtroom victory over PBS.
“They were so bloody arrogant,” said attorney Henry Gradstein.
“I’m not the bad guy. I’m the injured party,” said Nesmith,
adding in his folksy Southwestern twang, “It’s like catching your
grandmother stealing your stereo. You’re glad to get your stereo
back, but you’re sad to find out that Grandma’s a thief.”
PBS, he added, “was supposed to be the good guys. But the
next thing you know, these guys you think are sweetness and light
are perpetrating a fraud. And a fraud is a fraud is a fraud.”
Gradstein said jurors found that PBS acted with “unclean hands”
in its dealings with Nesmith, a former pop star who bought his way
out of his Monkees contract, produced several cult films such as
“Repo Man” and, in 1990, virtually created the multimillion-dollar
home video market for PBS.
The video market for television shows was in its infancy when
Nesmith went to PBS with a plan to buy the rights to its most
popular programs and build a home video library that would be
distributed in stores. Start-up costs soon left Nesmith’s company in
financial straits, even though the videos were selling well.
Nesmith decided to sell the rights to the video library for up to
$15 million, but PBS promised in writing to help him keep his
company afloat.
According to Gradstein, testimony and internal PBS documents
discovered during the trial, the network’s executives, instead of
helping Nesmith, stole the video rights. The PBS video line now
brings in about $21 million a year.
Gradstein said that even as PBS executives were sitting at the
negotiating table with Nesmith in 1993, discussing how to help his
company, they were engineering what became known as “the
Columbus Day massacre,” a massive termination of Nesmith’s
contracts with the producers of programs in the video library.
Jurors awarded $14.6 million to Pacific Arts for the value of the
loss of the library, plus $29.3 in punitive damages. It awarded $1
million personally to Nesmith, plus an additional $2 million in
punitive damages.
“I told [PBS] not to hit me,” Nesmith said. “I told them, ‘Don’t
do it, boys. You know you’ve got skeletons hanging in your closets.
You’ve done a bad thing here.’ I was just prepared to lick my
wounds and take my loss. I didn’t want to pound these guys into the
sand, but that was not to be.”
Nesmith testified during the trial about “a dark and sinister web
woven by PBS.”
Faced with taking the stand, he said, “I wondered how was I
gonna sit up there and explain all this to people who watch ‘Nature’
and Big Bird? I certainly don’t feel like I’ve won the Super Bowl.
This is a heartbreaker on one level. It shakes the foundation of
something I thought was a really good thing.”
Nesmith, 56, is best known as the hat-wearing guitar player with
the Monkees, a 1960s music and sitcom sensation sometimes
remembered as “the prefab four.” He was considered the “smart
Monkee.”
His mother, Bette Claire Graham, invented Liquid Paper, which
she sold to Gillette in 1979 for $47.5 million. A year later, Nesmith
inherited her fortune when she died. His inheritance financed
Nesmith’s “Elephant Parts,” the innovative video that won the first
video Grammy Award.
“It’s ironic,” Nesmith said Tuesday, that the jury awarded him
nearly the same amount Gillette paid his mother for Liquid Paper.

Former Monkee wins $46 million in suit against PBS

By Dan Whitcomb

LOS ANGELES (Reuters) – Michael Nesmith, a former star of ”The Monkees” TV
series and pop group, has won $46
million in damages in a lawsuit against the Public Broadcasting Service over
the rights to a videotape library of PBS programs.

In a verdict reached late Monday and announced Tuesday by Nesmith’s lawyer,
a federal court jury unanimously found PBS liable for breach of contract and
fraud. PBS said it would fight the verdict.

Nesmith alleged in his lawsuit that PBS promised in 1993 to help save his
Pacific Arts distribution business. Pacific Arts was deeply in debt after
establishing the “Silver Top” PBS Home Video Library, which distributed
such programs as ”Masterpiece Theatre” and Ken Burns’ “Civil War”
documentary series.

Nesmith alleged that the network persuaded producers of those programs to
terminate their distribution contracts with Pacific Arts and sign them over
to PBS. The network then found new distributors for the Home Video Library
and built a $27 million business around them, he alleged.

“It’s like finding your grandmother stealing your stereo,” Nesmith said.
“You’re happy to get your stereo back, but it’s sad to find out your
grandmother is a thief.”

Nesmith added: “They lied to me, they cheated me, they made an attempt to
get the catalogue dishonestly. They were
unethical and duplicitous.”

Stu Kantor, director of corporate communications for PBS, said the network
disagreed with the verdict and would fight it in court.

“PBS believes that the facts and the law in the case merited a verdict in

The jury awarded Nesmith’s Pacific Arts distribution company $14.6 million

Hi everyone!
Mike was mentioned in People magazine for the week of 2/22/99. It’s under
Passages(pg. 85). It reads:

Awarded
On Feb. 1 a federal jury in L.A. found the Public Broadcasting Service
guilty of fraud in a deal it had made with former Monkee Michael Nesmith,
56, and ordered the network to pay $46 million in damages. In 1990,
Nesmith’s company, Pacific Arts, established a home library of PBS shows
like Masterpiece Theatere and The Civil War, but Nesmith claimed that when
his enterprise ran into financial trobule, PBS surreptitiously acquired the
rights to the programs.

Just caught Micky and Ami Dolenz on a “teaser” for Monday’s Hard Copy.
The story is on celebrities who have had unauthorized nude photos put on
internet web sites. The snippet showed Ami viewing a site with her photo
and Micky commenting that there are some “real sickos out there”. The
full story will air on Monday so check local listings.

peace and love,

I saw this in the current edition of ROLLING STONE. It might actually be the
last one (Laryn Hill is on the cover) I don’t know how true it is, but I
thought that I would pass it on.

In the ROCK AND ROLL section, there is an article on upcoming oldies
packages tours for the summer. The article claims that one tour, called the
Summer of Peace and Love tour, will be featuring Micky Dolenz sharing the
bill with Byrds founder Roger McGuinn and other 60’s rock luminaries.

Like I said, I don’t know how true this is, but maybe someone in Monkeeland
knows more.

Cheers,

Rob McCabe

In the new issue of “Entertainment Weekly”, There is an article for
the 100 greatest moments in TV history. On page 34 in the 1950’s
section there is a mini section that says “TV, Planet of the apes”. In
there it has a pic of the monkees and has a bit to say about them. It
says “The Monkees. Okay, so they’re not actual monkeys. But these
pseudo-rock stars were almost as evolved as your average lemur. Much
like ‘Laugh-in’ and ‘Mod squad’, the unthreatening prefab groovesters
showed TV’s remarkable ability to co-opt a social revolution.”

Peace and Love,
Lily

In the February 8th issue of Video Business Magazine, which a trade
publication for the video industry, there was the following article on Michael
Nesmith.

News from Variety
By Janet Shprintz

In a case dubbed “The Monkee vs. Cookie Monster,” Michael Nesmith won a
$46.8 million verdict last week when a federal jury found that PBS had committed
fraud by inducing a mass termination of video licenses held by Nesmith’s company,
Pacific Arts.
Henry Gradstein, Nesmith’s lawyer, said, “The jury found that PBS did not treat
Nesmith fairly and honestly.”
A spokesman said PBS was “frankly shocked and plans to vigorously contest
the verdict.”
The dispute stems from Pacific Arts’ distribution of the PBS Home Video Library–
including such programs as Masterpiece Theatre and Ken Burns’s Civil War series–
in the early 1990s.
Through Pacific Arts, ex-Monkee Nesmith licensed the PBS logo from the
broadcaster and dozens of PBS programs directly from producers. Facing a
cash crunch, he decided to sell the library in late 1992, but, according to
his lawyers, PBS persuaded him to try to recapitalize or slowly wind down the
library to avoid a disruption of distribution.
Subsequently, Nesmith’s lawyers alleged, PBS orchestrated a massive
termination of Pacific Arts’ license agreements and its solicting of other
distributors to take over the library, with the intention of capturing the
underlying rights itself. PBS sued Nesmith and Pacific Arts in 1995 for
past-due royalties.
Nesmith filed a countersuit claiming fraud.
The verdict gives $14.6 million to Pacific Arts in compensatory damages
based on the value of the library, plus $29.2 million in punitive damages.
Nesmith received $3 million, including $2 million in punitive damages.
—This story first appeared in Feb. 3 Daily Variety.

I thought everyone might find this interesting.

Rolling Stone was printing mere rumors. Micky will *not* be touring this summer either with this tour or any others. His plans for this summer are to pursue more directorial work.

As posted before, the issue of Rolling Stone with Lauryn Hill on the cover (Feb. 18th), the same article (pg. 24) that Micky’s name appears in for the Summer of Peace and Love Tour, in last paragraph, it says- “Indeed, it seems that there’s a classic-rock package for everyone: Silverman recently had the Teen Idols – Davy Jones of the Monkees, Peter Noone of Herman’s Hermits and Bobby Sherman – performing New Year’s Eve at Disney World. ‘Peter Noone says the girls still throw underwear onstage,’ says Silverman, ‘It’s just the size of the underwear they’re throwing that’s a little different.’ -FRED GOODMAN”

of the nearest Spencer that IS carrying the Monkees stuff, you can call
1-800-321-2497 (their customer service department). Yes, some stores WERE
carrying the Monkees line and have dropped it now that the Christmas season
has passed, but Spencer’s customer service people tell us they are
committed to helping you find the Monkees items you need, even if they have
to do it by mail!!!
Also, now that the Christmas season has passed, Spencer has added six
different Monkees t-shirts to their stores. We’ve been told that the red
one, the one showing the Monkees on a vintage TV set, is a Spencer
exclusive. Another new one is due out this spring, “in time for Spring
Break,” says Spencer Gifts.

Although the “Boy Meets World” production office had told us weeks ago that
the “BMW” episode Micky Dolenz directed would air Feb. 26, a glance at
tonight’s TV listings shows that no episode of “BMW” is scheduled for
tonight. Today a spokesman for the show said there’s no set air date for
Micky’s episode, but two possibilities are March 12 or April 2. Episode
title is “Bee True”.
