Still talking about SPWF

This is exhausting... 

Links explaining what actually happened to SPWF: 




Like I've said before, I'm not a lawyer, so if someone could better explain the IP transfer paperwork and what actually happened to SPWF, I'd love to hear it. As far as I can tell (copied from older post):

I legally gave all control & ownership of my businesses over to others, which included the Steampunk World’s Fair. For reasons of their own, they chose to cancel The Steampunk World’s Fair, even though they were aware that there was no money to issue refunds. This is so painfully incorrect. The Radisson hotel refused to work with TS. There was no money for the event to properly run. I wonder what happened to the $80,000 in ticket sales and the $40,000 of vendor fees which Silver Phoenix / TS never receivedMy assumption is that this $120,000 went partly into Wicked Faire and partly into JM's pocket. I'd love to find out for sure. SPWF did not run because it could not run
  • I did NOT cancel The Steampunk World’s Fair.
  • I did NOT have the ability to cancel it as I no longer owned it at that time.
Eeehhh... This is from the IP transfer paperwork:  Silver Phoenix Society, Inc. has been effectively in control of and running the Intellectual Property described below as the Steampunk World's Fair as of February 2, 2018. The Intellectual Property of the Steampunk World's Fair will automatically revert to the Assignee after either May 7", or 7 business days after the successful completion of the Steampunk World's Fair, whichever comes first.

I am not a lawyer, but it seems that JM still technically owned SPWF until May 7th. .

I hope that clears it up.
