Genius Products and Numark Industries (jointly Scratch DJ Game LLC) today announced that Los Angeles County Superior Court has granted an injunction against Activision and California 7 Studios. As such, the judge ordered that all work related to Scratch – The Ultimate DJ game, including source code and game engine, be turned over to the Genius and Numark collective. 7 Studios and Activision has also been ordered not to reveal any part of Scratch – The Ultimate DJ to each other or a third-party.

"We are very excited to finish Scratch – The Ultimate DJ," stated Jack O'Donnell, Manager of Scratch and CEO of Numark. "We hope that this clear victory ends the delay tactics employed by the defendants to date to stop our game from being completed and brought to market. We will continue to vigorously pursue our damages case against Activision, 7 Studios and Peterson resulting from their actions to delay and take over the Scratch game. With the injunction order, we will also now be able to move forward to complete and launch our much anticipated Scratch game."

The original suit by Scratch DJ Game contended that Activision purchased 7 Studios, developers of Scratch – The Ultimate DJ game, because Genius and Numark refused to sell the property to Activision. 7 Studios then refused to turn over the Scratch game materials to Genius and Numark, which owned the rights to the music title. The court recently ruled that 7 Studios broke its contract with Scratch and ordered that source code for the game be turned over.
