Zuma Press has filed a copyright infringement lawsuit against the Plex streaming platform at a California federal court.

Title is somewhat misleading. It’s not for anything video-related. It’s for using a (probably free) photo of actress Cuca Escribano without permission.

      Typically celebrities don’t own these types of images, it’s the photographers, and theyre known for frivolous lawsuits.

      A few weeks ago, ZUMA Press filed a complaint at a federal court in California, accusing Plex of using a photo of actress Cuca Escribano on its website, without permission. The photo was shot by Jose Perez Gegundez who typically licenses it to third parties for a fee.

      Plex allegedly used the photo without permission, which the photographer’s licensing partner ZUMA Press discovered in April of last year.
