Lawsuit
Crystal Creek Media launched a lawsuit against CMD Distribution for failing to fulfill its contractual financial obligations over the distribution of the movie Creed of Gold. In early 2017 Crystal Creek Media was awarded a judgment against CMD Distribution by the Superior Court of New Hanover County in the state of North Carolina.[10]
Unfortuneatly, CMD was in the process of filing bankruptcy at the time due to the collapse of its biggest customer Allegro Media.[11][12] Crystal Creek was told this but proceeded anyway with this lawsuit. Crystal Creek was paid prior to this filling all royalties due them but they still proceeded. This was the second major customer to declare bankruptcy impacting CMD beyond what it could withstand. CMD withdrew its distribution rights and could not continue to pay annual distribution license fees as it was in a bankruptcy situation.
