There are missing tapes from numbers 1-486

When the Kings wanted an Injunction against us they were supposed to provide a list of the 486 tapes that they allegedly own as the 1997 copyright registration lists a deposit of 486 tapes under the single registration. Instead of providing the titles as they are on the tape log prepared by the class the Kings stated that the tapes were each ‘discussions between Ti, Do and students’ or something to that effect and numbered 1-486.

I have the tape log for tapes 1-365. Several tapes are missing and I checked that against the tapes that are on the thumb drive that I was sent in 2021 that started this litigious madness. The following tapes are missing as per that tape log and the thumb drive,

129, 134, 137-38, 165, 167, 168, 174, 176-78, 180, 183, 206, 214

That’s fifteen missing tapes. That means that only 471 of the tapes 1-486 are available and it could be more as I don’t have the tape log for any tapes 366 and above. Therefore, there’s fifteen other tapes beyond 1-486 that are part of that copyright registration.

My best guess is that some of the original analog tapes were too damaged to play properly. There do appear to be some damaged recordings that were digitized but these other fifteen are gone.

The Kings copyrighted tapes 487-498 last summer. But since they deposited 486 tapes in 1997 and fifteen were missing from numbers 1-486 what tapes were those other fifteen? Considering that OSC and RKK grabbed all of those tapes the only ones that I can verify are 1-218 ( minus the fifteen missing tapes ) that RKK retrieved and we digitized.

Were the tapes that OSC retrieved the next in the sequence? Why wouldn’t the Kings provide the titles of the tapes? Maybe because they deliberately want to confuse the issue as to the 486 tapes that they copyrighted in 1997 and the other five hundred plus tapes that ‘The TELAH Foundation, Inc.’ bought or had conveyed in the trust agreement in August of 1999.

But like I said, audio tapes that had been held by the Public Admin. of San Diego County from April of 1997 until being conveyed and sold in an August of 1999 agreement can’t be the same 486 audio tapes that the Kings registered for a copyright in October of 1997. Unless they stole those tapes from the Public Admin., had them registered for a copyright, and then returned them to the Public Admin. unbeknownst to anyone in order to have them later transferred in the agreement.
