25 INTRODUCTION
26 MJW is charged with the duty of protecting and representing the interests of creditors of its
27 estate. In furtherance of those duties, MJW seeks to stop the aggressive, over-reaching and

1 detrimental collection activities of Singer. Singer, a judgment creditor, has as his single aim to propel
2 himself ahead of all other legitimate creditors of MJW by interfering with MJW’s property rights in
3 its most valuable assets. Singer has thwarted MJW’s defensive efforts in litigation in the California
4 Superior Court because of MJW’s lack of resources to aggressively defend its position and the
5 interests of its creditors. MJW brings this action to ensure that Singer, as one creditor, cannot usurp
6 relative debt priorities and misappropriate assets for his personal benefit, leaving behind like creditors
7 and equity holders deprived of their just allocation of MJW’s assets.
8 BACKGROUND OF MJW’S LIMITED RELATIONSHIP WITH SINGER
9 1. MJW was formed to produce quality movies. Its work is sometimes completed
10 through specific subsidiaries formed for each discrete project in light of discrete investors, talent, and
3636 North Central Avenue, Suite 700
11 distribution agreements.
Phoenix, Arizona 85012
12 2. MJW formed such a subsidiary, J Wick Productions, LLC, it’s jointly administered
13 debtor in these jointly administered chapter 11 proceedings (“J Wick” and together with MJW,
14 “Debtors”), for the financing and production of the film John Wick, a film starring Keanu Reeves that
15 was received positively by audiences and critics alike.
16 3. MJW holds only a 50% ownership interest in J Wick.
17 4. In 2014, MJW ran short of operating cash for one of its projects.
18 5. To resolve its short term cash needs, MJW turned to Singer, a hard-money lender in
19 the movie industry, for a short-term loan of $235,000.00 (the “Singer Loan”).
20 6. Singer has thereafter used all his means to leverage the relatively small $235,000
21 unsecured Singer Loan into an alleged secured claim of more than $2.3 million against not only
22 MJW, but also MJW’s one-half owned subsidiary, J Wick (which has separately filed for relief from
23 Singer’s actions against its respective assets).
24 7. Singer has sought to exercise considerable pressure (as a self-described “multi-centric
25 millionaire” litigant holding a relatively unlimited war chest) against the financially strapped MJW to
26 extract concessions from it and extraordinary relief through litigation before the California Superior
27 Court, County of Los Angeles (the “California Court”).
{0005871.0001/00936998.DOCX / 2}
2
1 8. On information and belief, Singer is motivated by ill-will toward one of the principals
2 of MJW and its partial subsidiary J Wick. Singer’s aim is to strip MJW and its legitimate creditors
3 and interest holders from realizing recovery from revenues that will be paid to MJW on account of its
4 ownership in J Wick.
5 9. Singer sought and continues to seek to assert his advantage in a “race to the
6 courthouse” against all other creditors and equity holders in contravention of the fair and equitable
7 requirements of the distribution priorities under the Bankruptcy Code and applicable law.
8 10. In light of the foregoing, this adversary proceeding prays for: (1) declaratory relief to
9 enforce the automatic stay under 11 U.S.C. § 362(a) regarding alleged claims being prosecuted by
10 Singer in California; (2) avoidance and recovery of certain obligations incurred by MJW to Singer
11 (which Singer has improperly sight to impute to J Wick) as a constructively fraudulent transfer
12 pursuant to 11 U.S.C. §§ 544 and 550 and A.R.S. § 44-1001, et seq.; (3) avoidance and recovery for
13 the benefit of its estate of any inchoate liens and interests Singer may claim as to certain assets of
14 MJW’s estate (including its interests in J Wick) pursuant to 11 U.S.C. §§ 544 et seq., 547 and § 550;
15 (4) determination of the extent, validity, and priority of Singer’s claims against MJW and its estate
16 assets; and (5) equitable subordination of Singer’s alleged claim, in whole or in part.
17 11. This adversary proceeding serves as an objection to Singer’s claims as scheduled on
18 MJW’s bankruptcy schedules as well as any subsequent proof of claim that may be filed by Singer.
19 PARTIES, JURISDICTION, AND VENUE
20 12. On October 22, 2018 (the “Petition Date”), MJW filed a voluntary petition for relief
21 under chapter 11 of Title 11 of the U.S. Code (the “Bankruptcy Code”).
22 13. Since the Petition Date, MJW has remained in possession of its assets (except those
23 improperly distrained by and at the behest of Singer) and continues to operate its business as a debtor-
24 in-possession in accordance with 11 U.S.C. §§ 1107 and 1108. MJW has all of the rights and powers
25 of a trustee in bankruptcy pursuant to 11 U.S.C. § 1107(a).
26 14. MJW is an Arizona limited liability company with its principal place of business in
27 Gilbert, Arizona.
{0005871.0001/00936998.DOCX / 2}
3
1 15. Singer is an individual residing in the state of California.
2 16. Singer loaned monies to MJW prior to the Petition Date.
3 17. This Court has subject matter jurisdiction pursuant to 28 U.S.C. §§ 157(b) and 1334
4 (a) &,(b).
5 18. This Adversary Proceeding presents a core proceeding within the meaning of
6 28 U.S.C. § 157(b)(2)(A), (B), (E), (F), (G), (H), (K) & (O). MJW consents to final judgment by the
7 United States Bankruptcy Court as to the matters raised herein.
8 19. Singer asserts an invalid and/or avoidable secured claim against, among other things,
9 MJW’s beneficial interest in J Wick’s income stream, which is MJW’s most liquid and currently
10 valuable asset and which constitutes property of MJW’s bankruptcy estate.

11 20. This Complaint arises under Chapter 5 of Title 11 of the United States Code,
12 specifically 11 U.S.C. §§ 362, 502, 506(d), 541, 542, 544, 547, and 550.
13 21. Resolving these causes of action is a necessary step in the allowance or disallowance
14 of Singer's claims, determining the validity of any asserted liens, and formulating equitable
15 distribution among all creditors.
16 22. MJW's reorganization case is properly venued in the Phoenix Division of the United
17 States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Arizona. As such, venue is proper for this Adversary
18 Proceeding.
19 BACKGROUND ALLEGATIONS COMMON TO ALL COUNTS
20 23. In approximately July of 2013, Mike Witherill (“Witherill”) and John Glassgow
21 (“Glassgow”) formed MJW with Witherill serving as its Chief Operating Officer and Glassgow as its
22 Chief Financial Officer. MJW was formed to produce motion pictures.
23 24. In 2013, MJW caused J Wick to be formed in order to produce what would eventually
24 become the hit film John Wick.
25 25. MJW holds a 50% ownership interest in J Wick.
26 26. The remaining 50% ownership interest in J Wick is held by arms-length, non-bankrupt
27 Michigan investor, Sam X. Eyde as a result of, among other things, Mr. Eyde’s $7,000,000 guaranty
{0005871.0001/00936998.DOCX / 2}
4
1 of the financing to complete John Wick.
2 27. While John Wick was in production, MJW and certain others separately formed an
3 entity called Stuck Productions, LLC (“Stuck Productions”), an entity formed to produce a film called
4 Stuck.
5 28. The film Stuck was primarily produced on a budget financed by third party loans to
6 Stuck Productions with MJW as co-borrower or guarantor. Stuck was filmed in 2014 after primary
7 production of John Wick, and wrapped production just prior to the John Wick release.
8 29. During the production of Stuck, MJW and Stuck Productions experienced a series of
9 financial setbacks including a shortfall in funding at the very end of Stuck’s production which
10 threatened Stuck Productions’ ability to make union production payroll that could potentially shut-
11 down filming.
12 30. MJW bridged Stuck’s financial gap by undertaking the Singer Loan for the benefit of
13 its subsidiary Stuck Productions.
14 31. True and correct copies of the Singer Loan documents are attached hereto collectively
15 as Exhibit A.
16 32. Witherill guaranteed the Singer Loan.
17 33. MJW subsequently defaulted under the terms of the Singer Loan.
18 34. On October 7, 2014, Singer sued MJW and Witherill in the California Court in a case
19 styled as Singer v. MJW Films, LLC, et al, Case No. BC559972 (the “Singer Judgment Action”) in
20 order to collect the Singer Loan from MJW and Witherill.
21 35. On information and belief, on or after October 22, 2014, the parties exchanged
22 signatures to a Settlement Agreement dated October 10, 2014 (“Singer Settlement Agreement”) to
23 resolve the defaulted loan.
24 36. The Singer Settlement Agreement, however, required that MJW and Witherill jointly
25 pay a total settlement sum of $700,000 to Singer, even though the Singer Loan balance was nowhere
26 near such amount.
27 37. The excess liability incurred by MJW in the Singer Settlement Agreement arose from
{0005871.0001/00936998.DOCX / 2}
5
1 Singer’s putative claims against Witherill arising from prior movie project investments (the “H&W
2 Investments”) made by Singer, in which projects MJW had no direct or indirect interest, and from
3 which investments MJW received no benefit.
4 38. Singer asserted losses of approximately $1.44 million (the “Singer H&W Claims”).
5 from the H&W Investments, and demanded that Witherill undertake that liability and cause MJW to
6 also undertake that liability under the terms of the Singer Settlement Agreement.
7 39. A true and correct copy of the Singer Settlement Agreement is attached hereto as
8 Exhibit B.
9 40. The Singer Settlement Agreement further required MJW and Witherill to execute and
10 deliver a “pocket judgment” to Singer providing for a judgment against both MJW and Witherill in
11 favor of Singer in the collective amount of $2 million (the “Singer Judgment”) that Singer was
12 entitled to lodge with the California Court upon default by MJW and Witherill under the terms of the
13 Singer Settlement Agreement.
14 41. MJW and Witherill were unable to timely raise the funds necessary to satisfy their
15 obligations under the Singer Settlement Agreement and Singer subsequently lodged and obtained
16 entry of the Singer Judgment on November 7, 2014.
17 42. A true and correct copy of the Singer Judgment is attached hereto as Exhibit C.
18 43. On December 27, 2016, Singer subsequently filed a complaint (the “Singer
19 Complaint”) to initiate a supplemental proceeding before the California Court in a case styled as
20 Singer v. MJW Films, LLC, et al, Case No. BC 644917 (the “Singer Enforcement Action”) against
21 MJW, Witherill, and certain third parties including, among others, J Wick, Freeway CAMA B.V., and
22 Freeway Entertainment Group B.V. (collectively, “Freeway”); among the claims asserted by Singer
23 were alter ego claims, seeking to treat MJW, J Wick, Witherill, and other allegedly related entities as
24 one entity. The revenues payable directly to J Wick are payable by Freeway under that certain
25 Collection Account and Management Agreement (“CAMA”) between and among J Wick and certain
26 third parties involved in the production of John Wick. A true and correct copy of the Singer
27 Complaint is attached hereto as Exhibit D.
{0005871.0001/00936998.DOCX / 2}
6
1 44. The CAMA is consistent with common practice in the film industry, under which a
2 third party collection and payment agent is retained to collect and distribute proceeds of a film to the
3 various persons and entities that are entitled to share in the income stream.
4 45. Through the Singer Enforcement Action, Singer sought to, among other things,
5 foreclose upon MJW’s membership interests in J Wick and thereby reach all of the movie revenues
6 that would be flowing to MJW on account of its equity interest in J Wick.
7 46. Singer also sought to directly interdict and reach the movie revenues due to J Wick on
8 account of the successful John Wick production, even though such revenues must be allocated by J
9 Wick to its creditors and equity holders under its own respective obligations. These issues are the
10 subject of a separate Complaint filed by J Wick.

11 47. Prior to the filing of MJW’s voluntary petition commencing its Chapter 11 case,
12 Singer sought an order from the California Court seeking to use California law and procedure to reach
13 the actual equity interest of MJW in J Wick (not limited to revenue as a charging order but a full
14 execution on and foreclosure of the equity interest itself).
15 48. On the day of the Chapter 11 filing, the California Court had under advisement a form
16 of order lodged by Singer pursuant to which the California Court was to order the foreclosure sale of
17 MJW’s interests in J Wick.
18 49. As of the Petition Date, the California Court’s docket for the Singer Enforcement
19 Action did not reflect entry of the under advisement order.
20 50. As of the Petition Date, the Singer Enforcement Action was stayed with respect MJW
21 and the property of its bankruptcy estate.
22 51. Following the Petition Date, counsel for Singer served a form of order of foreclosure
23 purportedly entered by the California Court on or about October 18, 2018 ordering the sale of MJW’s
24 interests in J Wick (the “Foreclosure Procedure Order”).
25 52. On information and belief, Singer asserts a claim against MJW of more than $2.3
26 million.
27 53. The property of the MJW bankruptcy estate includes the potential alter ego claims of
{0005871.0001/00936998.DOCX / 2}
7
1 the type asserted by Singer as against third parties J Wick and Witherill.
2 54. On information and belief, Singer asserts a claim against J Wick, Witherill, and others
3 of more than $2.3 million as the alter egos of MJW.
4 COUNT I
Declaratory Relief to Enforce the Automatic Stay
5 Under 11 U.S.C. §§ 105 and 362.
6 55. MJW incorporates by reference the allegations set forth in the preceding paragraphs as
7 if fully restated herein.
8 56. In the Singer Complaint, Singer asserts eight counts against all named defendants,
9 including MJW (and J Wick) seeking: (1) garnishment as to Freeway and J Wick to attach obligations
10 of such parties to MJW; (2) accounting by all defendants as to monies owed to MJW and Witherill;
11 (3) imposition of a constructive trust on any property, rents, issues or profits in the possession of the
12 defendants that directly or indirectly belong to MJW or Witherill (defined by Singer as “Funds”); (4)
13 conversion claims against defendants in that action in connection with allegedly improper
14 disbursements of CAMA funds by Freeway in 2016; (5) injunctive relief determining that Singer may
15 execute upon the Funds; (6) claims for fraud and deceit in the handling of the Funds; (7) fraudulent
16 transfer claims to avoid and recover Funds as actually and constructively fraudulent; and (8) unjust
17 enrichment claims for defendants’ collective failure to turn over the Funds to Singer.
18 57. Singer alleges in the General Allegations of the Singer Complaint that “there is such
19 unity of interest and ownership between and among Defendants Witherill and MJW on the one hand,
20 and J Wick on the other hand, that Witherill and MJW are the equitable owners of J Wick, and the
21 separate personalities of Witherill and MJW on the one and J Wick on the other and do not in reality
22 exist.” Singer Complaint at ¶ 21.
23 58. Singer’s allegations as to Witherill comprise alter ego claims.
24 59. The alter ego claims asserted by Singer are property of MJW’s bankruptcy estate.
25 60. The claims asserted in the Singer Complaint now comprise property of MJW’s estate.
26 61. The entirety of the Singer Enforcement Action is stayed pursuant to 11 U.S.C. § 362.
27 62. On information and belief, Singer has maliciously and willfully continued to prosecute
{0005871.0001/00936998.DOCX / 2}
8
1 the Singer Enforcement Action after the Petition Date and in violation of the automatic stay by,
2 among other things, entering orders and pursuing discovery from Witherill in order to advance claims
3 now held by MJW’s bankruptcy estate.
4 63. MJW is entitled to damages, including punitive damages, from Singer for his willful
5 violation of the automatic stay.
6 WHERFORE, MJW requests that this Court enter judgment in its favor and against Singer
7 on Count I granting declaratory relief (i) determining that all claims asserted by Singer in the Singer
8 Enforcement Action comprise assets of MJW’s bankruptcy estate and any actions to assert dominion
9 over such claims violates the automatic stay; (ii) declaring that Singer is stayed from further
10 prosecuting the Singer Enforcement Action; and (iii) awarding MJW appropriate damages for
11 Singer’s knowing, willful and malicious continuing violations of the automatic stay.
12 COUNT II
Avoidance and Recovery of Fraudulent Transfers
13 Under 11 U.S.C. § 544(b) and A.R.S. § 44-1001 et seq.
16 65. MJW incurred liability to Singer based on his assertion of the Singer H&W Claims for
17 which MJW had no liability, and entered into an agreement resulting in an agreed consent order
18 against MJW on or within four years before the Petition Date (the “Transfers”).
19 66. MJW received less than a reasonably equivalent value in exchange for the Transfers.
20 67. MJW was insolvent on the dates the Transfers were made or became insolvent as a
21 result of the Transfers.
22 68. As of the date of the Transfers, MJW was engaged in business and/or transactions, or
23 was about to engage in business and/or transactions, for which the remaining property of MJW was
24 an unreasonably small capital.
25 69. As of the date of the Transfers, MJW intended to incur, or believed that it would incur,
26 debts that would be beyond its ability to pay as such debts matured.
27 70. Based upon the foregoing, the Transfers constitute avoidable fraudulent transfers
{0005871.0001/00936998.DOCX / 2}
9
1 pursuant to § 544(b) of the Bankruptcy Code and A.R.S. § 44-1001 et seq.
2 71. Pursuant to 11 U.S.C. §§ 544(b) and 550 and A.R.S. § 44-1001 et seq., MJW is
3 entitled to avoid and recover from Singer the Transfers for the benefit of MJW and its estate.
4 WHERFORE, MJW requests that this Court enter judgment in its favor and against Singer
5 on Count II avoiding the Transfers pursuant to11 U.S.C. §§ 544(b) and 550 and A.R.S. § 44-1001 et
6 seq., for the benefit of MJW’s estate.
7 COUNT III
Avoidance of and Recovery of Preferential Transfer and Exercise of Strong-Arm Powers
8 Pursuant to 11 U.S.C. §§ 544 et. seq., 547 and 550
10 if fully set forth herein.

11 73. The Foreclosure Procedure Order is alleged to have been entered on October 18, 2018,
12 within ninety days prior to the Petition Date. 1
13 74. Singer purported to be a creditor of MJW at the time of the entry of the Foreclosure
14 Procedure Order.
15 75. On information and belief, Singer alleges that the Foreclosure Procedure Order
16 resulted in an inchoate lien in favor of Singer as to MJW’s 50% interest in J Wick (the “Lien
17 Transfer”).
18 76. The Lien Transfer was made to or for the benefit of Singer, within the meaning of
19 11 U.S.C. § 547(b)(1), because the Lien Transfer purportedly arose on account of an antecedent debt
20 then allegedly owed by MJW to Singer.
21 77. MJW is presumed to have been insolvent at the time of the Lien Transfer pursuant to
22 11 U.S.C. § 547(f).
23 78. The Lien Transfer, if maintained, would enable Singer to receive more on account of
24 antecedent debts owed by MJW than Singer would have received if, as of the date of the Lien
25 Transfer, MJW had commenced a case under Chapter 7 of the Bankruptcy Code, the Lien Transfer
26 1
In the event it is determined that the Foreclosure Procedure Order was entered after the Petition Date
27 nunc pro tunc, MJW reserves its right to pursue avoidance of the order pursuant to 11 U.S.C. § 549.
{0005871.0001/00936998.DOCX / 2}
10
1 had not been made, and Singer received payment on account of the corresponding antecedent debt to
2 the extent provided by the provisions of the Bankruptcy Code.
3 79. To the extent any lien or inchoate lien has been granted to or for the benefit of Singer
4 as to his claims, such lien is inferior to that of MJW as debtor-in-possession under § 544 of the
5 Bankruptcy Code.
6 WHEREFORE, MJW requests that this Court enter judgment in its favor and against Singer
7 on Count III as follows: (i) declaring that the Lien Transfer is an avoidable preference pursuant to
8 11 U.S.C. § 547(b); (ii) declaring that MJW may recover the Lien Transfer from Singer pursuant to
9 11 U.S.C. § 550 for the benefit of its estate; (iii) declaring that any lien or inchoate lien that has been
10 granted to or for the benefit of Singer as to his claims is inferior to that of MJW as debtor-in-
11 possession under § 544 of the Bankruptcy Code; and (iv) granting such other and further relief as the
12 Court deems just and equitable.
13 COUNT IV
Objection to Allowance of Singer’s Alleged Claim and Request for Determination
14 of the Extent, Validity of any Lien Claimed in Relation to Such Claim.
17 81. Singer alleges a claim against MJW in an amount that exceeds $2.3 million (the
18 “Singer Alleged Claim”).
19 82. Singer alleges an interest in, among other property of the estate, MJW’s interests in J
20 Wick as security for his claim.
21 83. As described above, Singer is in violation of the automatic stay and subject to
22 sanctions therefor.
23 84. Further, Singer is a transferee of transfers that may be avoided under 11 U.S.C.
24 §§ 544, 547 and A.R.S. § 44-1001 et seq., and MJW may recover such transfers from Singer under
25 11 U.S.C. § 550.
26 85. MJW objects to the allowance of the Singer Alleged Claim and the extent of any
27 interests Singer may claim in property of its estate as security for the Singer Alleged Claim.
{0005871.0001/00936998.DOCX / 2}
11
1 86. Moreover, to the extent that any transfers alleged hereinabove are avoided, the Singer
2 Alleged Claim must be reclassified or disallowed so that Singer is treated as the holder of one non-
3 priority, unsecured claim against MJW in an amount to be determined by the Court.
5 on Count IV as follows: (i) determining the amount of, and the extent, validity, and allowance of any
6 alleged security for the Singer Alleged Claim and (ii) granting such other and further relief as the
7 Court deems just and equitable.
8 COUNT V
Equitable Subordination Pursuant to 11 U.S.C. § 510
9
11 if fully set forth herein.

12 88. Through the Singer Settlement Agreement and Singer Judgment Action, Singer abused
13 his position as a discrete lender to MJW and through gross inequitable conduct induced MJW to agree
14 to a stipulation for judgment and judgment against MJW in an amount that far exceeded any amounts
15 otherwise legally due and owing by MJW to Singer.
16 89. Singer has consistently demonstrated personal animus towards Witherill, which has
17 been visited upon affiliates that have arms-length, third party creditors and investors. As a result of
18 such animus, Singer has exhibited his unwillingness to deal in good faith with MJW, its affiliates, and
19 their third party creditors and investors.
20 90. Singer has asserted that other creditors of MJW may not participate in the Singer
21 Enforcement Action, depriving such creditors of a forum to redress their asserted interests in the
22 assets sought by Singer.
23 91. Singer has and continues to threaten to use his considerable economic resources to
24 conduct a war of attrition against MJW to the detriment of MJW and its creditors and equity holders.
25 92. Since the Petition Date, Singer has threatened to engage in scorched earth tactics
26 including an attempt to disqualify counsel for MJW solely for litigation and tactical gain.
27 93. Singer’s conduct has been grossly inequitable and resulted in injury to MJW, its
{0005871.0001/00936998.DOCX / 2}
12
1 bankruptcy estate, and third-party creditors.
2 94. Singer’s actions giving rise to the Singer Alleged Claim, including his actions and
3 representations to the California Court in the process of his obtaining relief in the Singer Enforcement
4 Action, and his continued prosecution of the Singer Enforcement Action in violation of the automatic
5 stay, have been so egregious and amount to such gross inequitable conduct that the Singer Alleged
6 Claim should be equitably subordinated to those of other creditors in MJW’s case, including, without
7 limitation, subordination of any liens that Singer may claim in any property of MJW’s estate.
9 on Count V as follows: (i) determining the extent, validity, and allowance of the Singer Alleged
10 Claim; (ii) subordinating the Singer Alleged Claim as appropriate under the facts and circumstances
11 of this proceeding; and (iii) granting such other and further relief as the Court deems just and
12 equitable.

3 9. Singer has a money judgment against MJW Films and Witherill, joint and several,
4 dated November 7, 2014, in the principal sum of $1,962,425. ("Money Judgment"). The time
5 for enforcement of the Money Judgment has not expired. The balance due on the Money

15 12. Service of the Summons and Complaint on the Third Parties creates a lien on
16 Judgment Debtors' interest in the Funds possessed or controlled by the Third Parties or on the
17 debt owed by the Third Parties to the Judgment Debtors.
18 13. Singer is unaware of the true identity and capacity of each of the Defendants

op 25 acts hereinafter alleged, each of the Defendants was the agent, servant, and employee of each of
^'26 the other Defendants, and performed each of the acts hereinafter alleged within the course and
27
28
2
COMPLAINT

1 scope of such agencies and employment and with the knowledge, consent, approval,
2 authorization, and gratification of each of the Defendants.
3 GENERAL ALLEGATIONS
4 15. Singer invested money with the Judgment Debtors for the purpose of being
5 involved in movie production. Singer ultimately took issue with Judgment Debtors' use of
6 production funds and he withdrew from their production arrangement and sought return of his
7 money. To this end, the parties stipulated to a Money Judgment in favor of Singer and against
8 the Judgment Debtors, jointly and severally, in the amount of $1 ,962,425. Singer has not been
9 able to collect on this Judgment, or any part of it, to date. .
10 16. Judgment Debtors produce and finance commercial motion pictures, typically
11 setting up distinct single purpose entities for each movie. The Judgment Debtors formed such a
12 single purpose entity - J Wick - for the purpose of producing a movie called John Wick. The
13 sole purpose of J Wick was the production, financing and participation in the profits of the John
14 Wick movie.
15 17. Singer is informed and believes and thereon alleges, that the movie John Wick
16 was released and theatrically distributed beginning in or about October 2014 both in the United
17 States and throughout the world.
18 1 8. Singer is informed and believes and thereon alleges, that Freeway acts as a third-
19 party collection agent that collects and distributes to the Judgment Debtors, and others, proceeds
20 from the distribution and commercial exploitation of the John Wick movie, among other movies.
21 1 9. On or about December 1 1 , 201 5, Singer learned that Freeway held for the benefit
22 of MJW Funds in the amount of $1,165,777 and that Freeway held for the benefit of J. Wick
23 Funds in the amount of $293,742. Counsel for Judgment Debtors assured Singer, in writing, that
-4 24 the Funds would be held by Freeway and not dispersed to Judgment Debtors, or anyone else,
"-4
4? 25 without the consent of, among others, Singer.
""26 20. On or about December 14, 2015, Singer delivered to Defendants, including but
27 not limited to Third Parties, written demand that all sums held by Freeway for the benefit of
28
3
COMPLAINT

1 MJW, Witherill or J Wick be held by Freeway and not distributed to any party. Singer further
2 demanded that Defendants, including but not limited to the Third Parties, interplead all such
\
3 funds held by them or for the benefit of MJW, Witherill or J Wick to the Los Angeles Superior
4 Court in that certain action entitled Michael Singer v. Michael Witherill and MJW Films, LLC,
5 LASC Case Number BC559972.
6 21. Despite the aforesaid written demand by Singer and written assurances by counsel
7 for Judgment Debtors, Singer is informed and believes, and thereon alleges, that Freeway, in or
8 about January 2016, disbursed all the Funds to or for the benefit of MJW, Witherill and J Wick.
9 Despite repeated demands, Defendants, including but not limited to the Third Parties, have
10 refused to pay the Funds, or any portion thereof, to Singer or, in the alternative, interplead such
11 Funds to the Los Angeles Superior Court. Further, Defendants knew but concealed from Singer
12 that the Funds would be disbursed to or for the benefit of MJW, Witherill and J Wick, despite
13 the written assurances by counsel for Judgment Debtors to the contrary. In addition, Defendants
14 concealed from Singer that the Funds had been disbursed in January 2016, which first became
15 known to Singer in or about July 2016.
16 22. Singer is informed and believes and thereon alleges, that there is such a unity of
17 interest and ownership between and among Defendants Witherill and MJW on the one hand, and
18 J Wick on the other hand, that Witherill and MJW are the equitable owners of J Wick, and the
19 separate personalities of Witherill and MJW on the one hand and J Wick on the other hand do
20 not in reality exist.
21 23. Singer is informed and believes and thereon alleges, that there would be an
22 inequitable result to the detriment of Singer unless the Court disregards any purported separate
i £23 existence of J Wick, on the one hand, apart from Witherill or MJW, on the other hand, such that
i
i -J
24 the Court can and should treat the acts, assets and property of J Wick as if they were committed
v 25 by or belonged to Witherill and MJW.

7
possession or control of Funds in which the Judgment Debtors have an interest and which directly
8
or indirectly belong to the Judgment Debtors.

10
indebted to Judgment Debtors and that the Funds should be applied to Singer's Money Judgment
11
against Judgment Debtors until the Money Judgment is satisfied in full.
12
27. Service of summons on the Third Parties creates a lien on the interest of the
13
Judgment Debtors in the Funds or other property or on the debt owed by the Third Parties to the
14
Judgment Debtors that is the subject of this action
15
SECOND CAUSE OF ACTION
16
Accounting
17
18
28. Singer refers to and incorporates herein by reference the allegations contained in
19
paragraphs 1 through 27, above, as if specifically set forth herein.
20
29. An accounting is necessary to determine the amount of lost profits and other
21
damages Singer has suffered due to the Defendants' aforesaid wrongful conduct as described
22
above in paragraphs 19-23, and the accounts are so complicated that an ordinary legal action
23
'•Vv
demanding a fixed sum is impracticable.

24
30. As a result of the aforementioned circumstances, Singer is entitled to an
*25

accounting of the monies diverted to the aforesaid Defendants to establish the damages he has
26
suffered.

COMPLAINT

1 THIRD CAUSE OF ACTION
2 CONSTRUCTIVE TRUST
3 (Against All Defendants)
4 31. Singer refers to and incorporates herein by reference the allegations contained in
5 paragraphs 1 through 30, above, as if specifically set forth herein.
6 32. By reason of the wrongful manner in which the aforesaid Defendants, or any of
7 them, obtained their alleged right, claim or interest in and to the Funds, the Defendants, and each
8 of them, have no legal or equitable right, claim or interest therein, but, instead, the aforesaid
9 Defendants, and each of them are involuntary trustees holding the Funds and profits therefrom
10 in constructive trust for Singer with the duty to convey the same to Singer forthwith.
11 FOURTH CAUSE OF ACTION
12 CONVERSION
16 34. At all times herein mentioned, Singer was, and still is, entitled to the possession
17 of the Funds, and such monies are readily identifiable to the aforesaid Defendants through
18 tracing.
19 35. On or about December 14, 2015, the aforesaid Funds had a value of at least
20 $1,459,519.
21 36. In or about January 2016, Defendants took the aforesaid Funds belonging and
22 which should have been paid to Singer and converted the same to their own use.
23 37. As a proximate result of Defendants' conversion, Plaintiff suffered damages that

•V
'"-J 24 are the natural, reasonable, and proximate results of the conversion of at least $1,459,519.
^25 38. The acts of the aforesaid Defendants were willful and malicious in that their
:7> 26 conduct was intended to cause injury to Singer and was carried on with a conscious disregard for
27 Singer's rights, thereby warranting the assessment of exemplary and punitive damages pursuant
28
6
COMPLAINT

1 to Cal. Civ. Code§ 3294 against each of the aforesaid Defendants, jointly and severally, in an
2 amount appropriate to punish them.
3 FIFTH CAUSE OF ACTION
4 DECLARATORY AND INJUNCTIVE RELIEF
8 40. An actual controversy exists between the parties regarding the parties' rights and
9 obligations arising out of the Defendants' transactions with respect to the Funds: Specifically,
10 whether title to and/or possession of the Funds should be adjudicated in Singer's or Defendants'
11 favor.
12 41. Defendants threaten to continue to deprive Singer of his right to exclusive
13 possession of the Funds, including all readily identifiable and traceable cash, proceeds, personal
14 property and real property. Singer is informed and believes, and on the basis of that information
15 and belief alleges, that unless restrained by this Court, Defendants will continue to deprive Singer
16 of his property, including the aforesaid Funds.
17 42. Such aforesaid wrongful conduct by Defendants will result in irreparable harm to
18 Singer in that if left unrestrained, it will result in loss of assets belonging to Singer. The potential
19 damages that could proximately result from Defendants' continued aforesaid wrongful conduct
20 would be extremely difficult, if not impossible, to assess accurately.
21 43. A judicial determination resolving this actual controversy is necessary and
22 appropriate at this time.

SIXTH CAUSE OF ACTION
23
"s
FRAUD AND DECEIT
*"sJ 24
•V JC
XT)
28
7
COMPLAINT

1 45. At the aforesaid dates and times, the Defendants falsely and fraudulently
2 concealed material facts from Singer as set forth above in paragraphs 19-23, which each of
3 them had a duty to disclose.-
4 46. The aforesaid Defendants concealed material facts from Singer by failing to
5 disclose the substance and nature of the aforesaid transactions knowing that Singer was a creditor
6 of the Judgment Debtors and that the Third Parties had in their possession moneys that properly
7 should be paid to Singer.
8 47. The aforesaid Defendants had a duty to make full disclosures to Singer of the
9 concealed information, and the concealment of material facts was made by the aforesaid
10 Defendants with the intent to defraud and deceive Singer and with the intent to induce Singer to
11 act in the manner herein alleged.
12 48. At and during the time the aforesaid Defendants concealed the aforesaid material
13 facts from Singer, Defendants had no intention of divulging the material facts which each had a
14 duty to disclose.
15 49. Singer, at the time the aforesaid concealment of material facts was made and at
16 the time Defendants took the actions herein alleged, was unaware of the material facts concealed
17 by the aforesaid Defendants and was ignorant of Defendants' secret intention not to divulge the
18 material facts. Singer could not, in the exercise of reasonable diligence, have discovered the
19 aforesaid Defendants' secret intentions and concealment of the aforesaid material facts.
20 50. At all relevant times Singer was unaware of the aforesaid material facts, and was
21 induced to and did, inter alia, act in the manner alleged to his substantial detriment and damage.
22 51 . Had Singer known the actual facts and true intentions concealed by Defendants,
^23 Singer would not have acted as he did and would not have been damaged as alleged herein.
::U4 52. Singer's reliance on Defendants' concealment of material facts was justified
25 because the Defendants had exclusive knowledge of the truth, which was unavailable at the time
""26 to Singer because Defendants were in the sole custody, control and/or possession of their secret
27 intentions.
28
8
COMPLAINT

1 53. As a direct, foreseeable, and proximate result of Defendants' intentional
2 concealment and omission of material facts, Singer has suffered and continues to suffer
3 substantial damages in excess of $1 ,459,5 19, the exact amount to be ascertained at trial according
4 to proof.
5 54. The acts of Defendants were willful and malicious in that their conduct was
6 intended to cause injury to Singer and was carried on with a conscious disregard for Singer's
7 rights, thereby warranting the assessment of exemplary and punitive damages pursuant to Cal.
8 Civ. Code§ 3294 against each of the aforesaid Defendants, jointly and severally, in an amount
9 appropriate to punish them.
10 SEVENTH CAUSE OF ACTION
11 SET ASIDE FRAUDULENT TRANSFER OF MONEY

(Civil Code §§ 3439, et seq.)
12
13
16 56. This Cause of Action arises under and is alleged pursuant to Civil Code §§ 3439,
17 et seq.
18 57. Defendants, and each of them, conspired with one another to transfer the Funds
19 as alleged herein for the purpose of hindering, delaying, and/or defrauding Singer. Defendants,
20 and each of them, were aware that the foregoing conduct was and continues to be fraudulent.
21 58. The transfer of the Funds by Defendants is fraudulent as to Singer because
22 Defendants made the transfer (or incurred the obligation) with actual intent to hinder, delay,
:: 23 and/or defraud Singer, known to Defendants to be the creditor of Judgment Debtors.
"V.J
24 59. The transfer of the Funds as alleged herein was made without receiving a
3 *"J
25 reasonably equivalent value in exchange for the transfer, leaving the Judgment Debtors with
:7> 26 remaining assets that are unreasonably small in relation to the business of the Judgment Debtors.
27
28
9
COMPLAINT

1 60. As a direct, foreseeable, and proximate result of Defendants' wrongful conduct,
2 S inger has suffered and continues to suffer substantial damages in excess of $ 1 ,45 9,5 1 9, the exact
3 amount to be ascertained at trial according to proof.
4 61 . Singer is entitled to avoidance of the aforesaid transfer of the Funds to the extent
5 necessary to satisfy his Money Judgment against the Judgment Debtors, jointly and severally,
6 and equitable relief in the form of an injunction against further transfer of the Funds, and/or
7 appointment of a Receiver.
8 62. Singer is informed and believes and thereon alleges that in doing the things
9 alleged herein, Defendants, and each of them, acted fraudulently, oppressively, maliciously, and
10 in conscious disregard of the rights of Singer. Therefore, Singer is entitled to recover punitive
11 and/or exemplary damages from Defendants in an amount to be established at the time of trial.

13 UNJUST ENRICHMENT
14 (Against AH Defendants)
I 16 paragraphs 1 through 62, above, as if specifically set forth herein.

INSTRUCTIONS ON HOW TO COMPLETE THE COVER SHEET
To Plaintiffs and Others Filing First Papers. If you are filing a first paper (for example, a complaint) In a civil case, you must
complete and file, along with your first paper, the Civil Case Cover Sheet contained on page 1 . This information will be used to compile
statistics about the types and numbers of cases filed. You must complete items 1 through 6 on the sheet. In item 1 , you must check
one box for the case type that best describes the case. If the case fits both a general and a more specific type of case listed in item 1 ,
check the more specific one. If the case has multiple causes of action, check the box that best indicates the primary cause of action.
To assist you in completing the sheet, examples of the cases that belong under each case type in item 1 are provided below. A cover
sheet must be filed only with your initial paper. Failure to file a cover sheet with the first paper filed in a civil case may subject a party,
its counsel, or both to sanctions under rules 2.30 and 3.220 of the California Rules of Court.
To Parties in Rule 3.740 Collections Cases. A "collections case" under rule 3.740 is defined as an action for recovery of money
owed in a sum stated to be certain that is not more than $25,000, exclusive of interest and attorney's fees, arising from a transaction in
which property, services, or money was acquired on credit. A collections case does not include an action seeking the following: (1) tort
damages, (2) punitive damages, (3) recovery of real property, (4) recovery of personal property, or (5) a prejudgment writ of
attachment. The identification of a case as a rule 3.740 collections case on this form means that it will be exempt from the general
time-for-service requirements and case management rules, unless a defendant files a responsive pleading. A rule 3.740 collections
case will be subject to the requirements for service and obtaining a judgment in rule 3.740.
To Parties in Complex Cases. In complex cases only, parties must also use the Civil Case Cover Sheet to designate whether the
case is complex. If a plaintiff believes the case is complex under rule 3.400 of the California Rules of Court, this must be indicated by
completing the appropriate boxes in items 1 and 2. If a plaintiff designates a case as complex, the cover sheet must be served with the
complaint on all parties to the action. A defendant may file and serve no later than the time of its first appearance a joinder in the
plaintiffs designation, a counter-designation that the case is not complex, or, if the plaintiff has made no designation, a designation that
the case is complex. CASE TYPES AND EXAMPLES
