LAW OFFICES 3883 Howard Hughes Parkway, Suite 1100 Las Vegas, Nevada 89169 702.784.5200 Snell & Wilmer v. 12 FP HOLDINGS, L.P., 13 Defendant. 14 15 16 After pretrial proceedings in this case, IT IS ORDERED: I. 17 18 This is an action for: 19 Plaintiff Ryan Raddon (“Raddon”) is an internationally-known performing artist and DJ; 20 Plaintiff Big City Dynasty Corp. (“Big City”) (together with Raddon, “Plaintiffs”) is an 21 entertainment company of which Raddon is the principal. Defendant FP Holdings, Inc. (“FP” or 22 “Defendant”) is the ultimate owner of a series of companies that owned at all relevant times for this 23 dispute the Palms Casino Resort in Las Vegas, Nevada (“The Palms”). 24 This action primarily concerns Defendant’s breach of that certain Artist Performance 25 Agreement, dated as of January 8, 2018 (the “Agreement”). Under the Agreement, Defendant 26 retained Big City to furnish the DJ services of Raddon, as Artist, to perform at KAOS, a nightclub 27 and dayclub venue operated by Defendant at The Palms (the “Venue”). The Agreement obligates 28 Big City, as Producer, to furnish Raddon’s DJ services at the Venue, on thirty dates in calendar Dockets.Justia.com L.L.P. LAW OFFICES 3883 Howard Hughes Parkway, Suite 1100 Las Vegas, Nevada 89169 702.784.5200 Snell & Wilmer Case 2:19-cv-02078-APG-NJK Document 76 Filed 08/03/21 Page 2 of 30 1 year 2019 and an additional thirty dates in calendar year 2020, with the specific dates to be agreed 2 upon by the parties (each a “Performance”). 3 Plaintiffs allege, in essence, that Defendant closed the Venue in September 2019 for dome 4 construction, then, after briefly reopening, announced the closure would be permanent on 5 November 5, 2019, and failed to provide another venue for the Performances, thereby breaching 6 the terms of the Agreement. Plaintiffs argue, in basic terms, all of Plaintiffs’ compensation under 7 the Agreement became immediately due and owing when the Agreement was terminated, making 8 any subsequent events irrelevant. 9 Defendant admits that by closing the Venue it breached the Agreement but alleges, in basic 10 terms, that it did not cause all of Plaintiffs’ claimed damages as Plaintiffs could not have been 11 ready, willing and able to perform shows at a nightclub or dayclub from March 17, 2020 through 12 December 31, 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic and related government shutdown of casinos, 13 nightclubs and dayclubs, which rendered the parties’ performance under the Agreement objectively 14 impossible. FP thus contends that Plaintiffs’ damages should be limited to those that (i) occurred 15 prior to the supervening impossibility, and (ii) have not otherwise already been paid. Insofar as 16 Plaintiffs contend that FP could have opened a lounge or other modified venue in or about mid- 17 2020 in order to schedule Plaintiffs’ uncompleted performances under the Agreement, FP submits 18 that the government ban on nightclubs and dayclubs re-opening was not limited to the period of 19 March 17, 2020 through June 4, 2020, and that the Agreement expressly contemplates nightclub 20 and dayclub performances not lounge or any other type of performances. Even if the outright ban 21 was limited to the specified time period, FP submits the cost of performance post-June 4 under the 22 required government restrictions and related conditions would have been materially more 23 burdensome and, thus, not required under applicable law. 24 In response to Defendant’s force majeure and impossibility/impracticability affirmative 25 defense regarding the COVID-19 pandemic, Plaintiffs argue that events that occurred after 26 Defendant’s breach and termination of the Agreement are immaterial and do not impact or limit 27 28 -2- Case 2:19-cv-02078-APG-NJK Document 76 Filed 08/03/21 Page 3 of 30 1 Plaintiffs’ damages, both under the Agreement and under Nevada law. Regardless, Defendant’s 2 performance was not impossible, as other venues had reopened by mid-2020. 3 4 Statement of Jurisdiction: 5 This Court has diversity jurisdiction pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1132(a)(1) because there is 6 complete diversity of citizenship between the parties, and the amount in dispute exceeds $75,000. 7 Big City is incorporated under the laws of California, with its principal place of business in L.L.P.
