The porn studio Corbin Fisher won a copyright infringement lawsuit against former performer and current male escort Jake Lyons, who advertising himself online as a Corbin Fisher model and using the studio’s photos, but it’s willing to set aside the $54,000 judgment if the escort donates one-tenth, or $5,400, to Equality Florida. Lyons maintained (NSFW) his men4rentnow.com profile was not set up by him, but his agent, and that Corbin Fisher officials broke into his home “so they could steal my MySpace log in, just so they could change my profile to say I lived in Orlando, when actually I lived in Wilton Manors. They changed it to say Orlando so they could sue me in Orlando federal court.”

So agent really means Pimp? Explains a lot about hollywood. 😉

Ehhh, they were able to try him based on his myspace profile and not documents containing actual proof of address? Sounds a bit fishy….

explains a lot about hollywood, fl? lol

I don’t know much about being a lawyer, but are you really able to use where someone says they live on Myspace as means to take them to the proper court? I highly doubt it..
Jake Lyons
No! By agent, I mean Porn Agent, he used to get me work with studios. I did not, nor would I, ever have a pimp. I dont offer sex for money.

At the risk of taking the English language seriously, one should point out that Jake has in fact offered sex for money – he merely offered it to a porn company as opposed to an individual. If Jake reads this, I hope he takes it as a word-usage thing, not as a personal criticism (as the “Pirate King” said in “The Pirates of Penzance”, “compared to respectability, it is a relatively honest living.” – lots of monarchs at the time killed more people to stay in power than your typical pirate would kill during his, err, career.)

Well if the studio is still using Jake Lynon’s pictures than he still is a model for them. If not is this whole lawsuit really over the fact that he forgot to included the word “former” which describing himself as a Corbin Fisher model? There really is no way that they deserve that sum of money, they would have to somehow prove that his use of a few pictures OF HIMSELF caused them that amount of lost revenue, which is in no way accurate.
Still though it is pretty cool of them to drop it if he makes a $5.4K donation to a good cause

is Queerty paying for the rights to use that photo? That’s what I don’t understand, why can a blog put up a photo like that for a story but the model in the picture gets sued for using it to sell himself? The model wasn’t attempting to make money by selling porn, he was using an image of himself to sell sex.

@jacknasty:
Because using a photo for news commentary is what is known as “fair use” under 17 USC Sect. 107.

The poor kid thinks he doesn’t offer sex for money.
PLAYS WELL WITH OTHERS
@Jake Lyons: So if you don’t have sex for money, what exactaly are you doing on those videos? I kinda sorta think it looks somewhat like sex, you know with your cock out there and all…….and am pretty sure you gots some coin for those acts………sorry to inform you dude, but you gots paid for sex! :p

That isn’t a very flattering picture, but he is attractive. I’ve seen some of his other shots. He’s cute.

Why did none believe me when I said that I never uploaded the pictures to the site?
Corbin Fisher and I were both fools for doing business with Justin Caro.
Why would a person with a record like this ever get to run an agency for porn actors?
Will I ever see justice?
Corbin Fisher ruined my life. I am prepared to begin to seek damages for defamation of character. I think Liberty Media holdings owes me an apology. I think it would be good for this apology to come in the form of a check.
I was mistreated on a false basis. My life was threatened on many occasions by Mark Randazza, my house was broken into, my friends were paid for information and my privacy was violated.
