Robert Braner, speaking on behalf of the company's board of directors and the company's management, said, "This legal action against Mr. Davis in no way impedes or restricts Beverly Hills Film Studios' operational status. The company is in solid shape, its projects currently under way and in post-production remain on track, and the company's management continues to execute on all projects currently in the pipeline."

The nature of the action against Davis includes that Davis has personally looted the company by paying himself and his wife well over $1,000,000, and taking the company through a 100:1 reverse and further issuing himself 100,000,000 shares of stock.

The action further states that Davis has attempted to block all production on the company's current film projects, and has made physical threats against the company's personnel, and has attempted to misappropriate mis·ap·pro·pri·ate

 the company's film assets for himself.

The company's board stated, "Mr. Davis has continued to attempt to disrupt and interfere with the operations of the company by contacting employees, independent contractors and creditors. These actions by Mr. Davis are unfounded and will not be tolerated by the company."

The company will demand that Davis returns all stock improperly issued, and returns to the company all monies paid by Davis to himself and others not approved by the company, its management and its board of directors.

Beverly Hills Film Studios Inc. (OTC: BVHJ) announced that the company has prevailed at a hearing held Oct. 26, 2004, with regard to a complaint presented at Los Angeles County Superior Court.

The Honorable Dzintra Janavs heard the application for the TRO and denied it in all respects, both procedurally and substantively.
