Dispute Over Royalties: The Tom Jones Show

At the time of its Chapter 11 filing, the principal creditor of Classic World Productions was

Time-Life, rather than by Classic World Productions or C/F International;[5]

Six months after the amount owed by Classic World Productions to C/F International had been judicially determined, Classic World Productions filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy proceedings. The assets of Classic World Productions were seized by C/F International, based on the latter's secured judgement creditor status. However, C/F International Judgement against Darryl Payne was dismissed. Tom Jones Enterprises secured a Judgement against C/F International for $9 Million USD. The facts of this case showed C/F International had no such rights to The Tom Jones Show.

Ownership Interest In The Judy Garland Show

Prior to its Chapter 11 filing, Classic World Productions had co-released, with

Universal Pictures International
in late 2008. Darryl Payne currently asserts copyright ownership to all 26 episodes of The Judy Garland Show. .
