LIVEONE WINS BARRY REGENSTEIN DISPUTE AND FILES FOR SANCTION AGAINST THE OPPOSING COUNSEL BROWN NERI LAW FIRM

LOS ANGELES, Feb. 3, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- LiveOne (Nasdaq: LVO), a creator-first, music, entertainment and technology platform focused on delivering premium experiences and content  worldwide through membership, subscriptions, and live and virtual events, announced today that it had all 15 claims for monetary relief asserted by Barry Regenstein vs LiveOne thrown out in court. LiveOne has filed a motion to have his counsel sanctioned and to pay LiveOne's legal fees incurred in connection with defending the first and fourth causes of action.

LiveOne and Robert Ellin are represented by Jeffrey Katz of the Orange County firm of Kesher Law Group. Katz said, "Prior to each motion, Plaintiff and his counsel (Ethan Brown and James Warren of the Brentwood firm of Brown, Neri Smith & Khan) were provided with legal authority demonstrating that the claims lacked merit. They were given the opportunity to withdraw the claims; however, each time, Regenstein and his counsel were recalcitrant."

The Brown Neri law firm has lost 8 consecutive motions to Katz and LiveOne spanning across two meritless lawsuits, Barry Regenstein vs LiveOne and Schuyler Hoversten vs LiveOne.
