Plaintiff relied on the representations of defendants Dellaverson and Lions Gate that they would honor the terms of the agreement between plaintiff and Ms. Capra and refrained from filing a civil action at that time. In September of 2003, defendant Dellaverson then approached other members of the project and requested and received waivers of their right to compensation for the "Dying for Dolly" project allegedly so that he could compensate plaintiff. He obtained those waivers, yet never informed plaintiff of those actions. In September 2004, defendants Capra, Dellaverson, and Lions Gate formed DFD Productions, Inc., to produce the "Dying for Dolly" film without informing Ms. Burton. The project was taken to completion, and wrapped on January 24, 2005 without notice to plaintiff. Ms. Burton was not credited, nor compensated per the terms of her agreement with the defendants. Plaintiff inadvertently discovered that the "Dying for Dolly" project had been completed in early February of 2005 shortly after it wrapped. Through her counsel, Ms. Burton reminded the defendants of their contractual obligations, agreements, and promises by both phone calls and letters from her legal counsel. Plaintiff requested that defendants include her in the credits and compensate her as agreed in August and September of 2003. To date, defendants have failed to respond to Ms. Burton s requests that they honor the agreements reached with plaintiff in 2003. In the absence of any substantial response, Ms. Burton had no alternative but to seek the intervention of the Superior Court to enforce her rights.

That s because in most cases, people are afraid that if they object, they will be blackballed by the industry. "In fact, Ms. Burton was threatened with being blackballed by one of the defendants in this case," commented Christensen. "Leigh Ann deserves great credit for refusing to be intimidated, and refusing to be taken advantage of by those with influence in Hollywood."
