Mr. ErikMagraken @ErikMagraken,

If Zuffa sells before the conclusion of the anti trust lawsuit, do the new owners then become liable to pay the potential damages awarded in that case?

Also, did you watch Making a Murderer? Is Steven Avery guilty?

Good question. Curious of that too. How does liability transfer if a company sells and goes out of business. Say Zuffa sells and shuts its doors. Of course that wouldn't preclude legal proceedings, but would liability transfer to the individual owners of that business?

Edit: Beaten

It depends on exactly what is sold. If Zuffa is sold the answer is yes, the new shareholders inherit the liability of the lawsuit against it. If, on the other hand, certain assets are disposed of it may be possible to structure sale in a way that new ownership is not responsible for the underlying litigation.

Love the name. China Media Capital. Very catchy, like "Place Function Package" or something. Really gets the imagination going.

Can't they just rename the company "China" and duck all liability that way?
