Digital Domain sold for $30 million at bankruptcy court auction

Firms from China, India team up in joint venture

Updated: 5:43 PM EDT Sep 24, 2012

WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. —
The bankrupt digital production company founded by director James Cameron is getting sold to a joint venture formed between a Chinese media company and an Indian counterpart for $30.2 million.

A U.S. subsidiary of Beijing Galloping Horse Film & TV Co. and Mumbai-based Reliance MediaWorks teamed up to outbid other companies in a bankruptcy court auction Friday. The deal was announced by the companies Sunday night.

It’s been a busy month for the erstwhile animation giant. Digital Domain laid off about 300 workers at its Port St. Lucie location, then filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection days later.

Digital Domain, best known for its work on Cameron’s “Titanic,” has produced visual effects for more than 90 movies, including “Pirates of the Caribbean: At World’s End” and the “Transformers” series.

Although Digital Domain is being sold, its Florida assets are still under the control of a bankruptcy court, WPBF 25 News’ Terri Parker reported. That includes the land that was given to the company by the city of West Palm Beach to build a film school in partnership with Florida State University.

“Our No. 1 priority is to protect the investment that the city made, protect the land, that’s involved in this deal,” city spokesman Elliot Cohen said.

Getting the land back may not be so simple, bankruptcy attorney Jeffrey Harrington said, because Digital Domain mortgaged the land for $2 million before it declared for bankruptcy.

“Well, that’s too bad, because when it comes to real property, it’s a different situation, ” Harrington said. “It’s secured debt, and the secured creditors are going to be in a stronger position. So whatever lender … (gave) the mortgage on the land, obviously, is going to want to foreclose now on that property.”

Madrid, XX nov (EFE).- El exfiscal de la Audiencia Nacional Ignacio Peláez y el exmagistrado Mariano Zaforteza, que representan a conocidos empresarios y personalidades en asuntos civiles y penales, se han unido para crear un despacho de abogados centrado en el asesoramiento a empresas.

En declaraciones a Efe, Peláez y Zaforteza explicaron que la idea de la alianza surgió hace más de un año aunque no ha sido hasta después del verano cuando ha comenzado su andadura el bufete, que cuenta con 12 miembros entre socios y colaboradores y que incluso ha tejido lazos al otro lado del Atlántico.

En concreto, los letrados se han asociado con el despacho estadounidense Harrington And Sheppard Associates, que tiene sede en Florida y que está especializado en asesoramiento a empresas, procedimientos de insolvencia y ejecuciones hipotecarias.

Según los socios, el objetivo del nuevo despacho es ofrecer un servicio integral a clientes particulares pero, sobre todo, a empresas para llegar a acuerdos que solventen los enfrentamientos existentes en materia penal, civil, laboral, fiscal o administrativa antes de tener que actuar ante la Justicia.

Peláez y Zaforteza, que se conocieron en Mallorca hace más de 20 años, cuando ambos trabajaban para la Administración de Justicia, entienden que su alianza profesional es el paso natural que tenían que dar tras llevar colaborando cerca de un lustro y que, además, puede aportar valor añadido en el asesoramiento a sociedades.

Peláez, que pidió la excedencia como fiscal de la Audiencia Nacional en 2003, se ha convertido en un reputado abogado que ha asesorado a empresarios en casos de relevancia pública como Nueva Rumasa o Gürtel.

Precisamente, se hizo más conocido a nivel popular en 2010 tras la querella que interpuso contra el exjuez de la Audiencia Nacional Baltasar Garzón por las escuchas ilegales en el caso Gürtel, que ha llevado a la inhabilitación del magistrado.

Zaforteza, que abandonó la judicatura en 2008 tras haber ejercido en Mallorca y Madrid, también viene asesorando a conocidos empresarios y personajes famosos en asuntos civiles.

Junto a ellos, forman el despacho los abogados Luis Javier Peláez, Víctor Fernández, Miguel Ángel Arévalo, Marina Sáenz, Ignacio Mora, Daniel Núñez, Ignacio García Prieto, Fernando de Franco Paz y Antonio Rentería. EFE
