Plaintiff Walton International Group (USA), Inc. filed a motion for default judgment on 

February 19, 2010. After full consideration of the evidence, having reviewed the papers in support of 

the motion, and having heard and considered the arguments of counsel at the February 26, 2010 

hearing on the Application for Default Judgment, as well as the memoranda, evidence and other 

papers submitted by Plaintiff, including the default entered against Defendant Elizabeth Arden by the 

clerk on January 11, 2010, and good cause appearing, 

IT IS ORDERED, ADJUDGED AND DECREED that default judgment be granted in 

Plaintiff's favor in this matter. 

IT IS FURTHER ORDERED, ADJUDGED AND DECREED that the statements 

appearing on Complaintsboard.com, as identified in Exhibits F and G to the Complaint in this action, 

that Plaintiff's business (a) is a "scam"; (b) operates as a "Ponzi scheme;" (c) uses "doctored numbers" 

to solicit investments; (d) operates in a way designed to avoid the scrutiny of regulators, or (e) uses 

intimidation and threats against anyone who seeks to complain about it, are false and defamatory 

under California law. 

IT IS FURTHER ORDERED, ADJUDGED AND DECREED that Defendant Elizabeth 

Arden, aka "Mark Shultz," doing business on the Internet under the domain name 

"COMPLAINTSBOARD.COM" (hereafter, "Defendant") is ordered to pay Plaintiff civil damages in 

the amount of $29,939.73, as established by Plaintiff by declaration. 

IT IS FURTHER ORDERED, ADJUDGED AND DECREED that Defendant and any of 

Defendant's employees, representatives, agents, successors-in-interest, affiliates, and all other 

persons, firms, or entities acting in concert or participating with them, directly or indirectly, are 

hereby permanently enjoined, directly or indirectly, from publishing, hosting or retransmitting 

statements that Plaintiff's business (a) is a "scam"; (b) operates as a "Ponzi scheme;" (c) uses 

"doctored numbers" to solicit investments; (d) operates in a way designed to avoid the scrutiny of 

regulators, or (e) uses intimidation and threats against anyone who seeks to complain about it.

resource locators ("URLs"): http://www.complaintsboard.com/complaints/walton-internationalCase 5:09-cv-04721-JF Document 26 Filed 03/01/10 Page 2 of 4

IT IS FURTHER ORDERED, ADJUDGED AND DECREED that in order to ensure 

compliance with this Order, Plaintiff shall present a copy of this Order to Melbourne IT, the domain 

name registrar of record for COMPLAINTSBOARD.COM, which has offices at 636 Ellis Street, 

Mountain View, California, CA, 94043, within this judicial district. Upon receipt of this Order, 

Melbourne IT shall place the domain name COMPLAINTSBOARD.COM on registrar lock to 

prevent its transfer to another registrar outside this judicial district. 

IT IS FURTHER ORDERED, ADJUDGED AND DECREED that if Defendant has not 

complied with the terms of this Order within ten (10) days, Plaintiff shall so inform Melbourne IT of 

Defendant's non-compliance, at which time Melbourne IT shall delete all DNS records of the domain 

name COMPLAINTSBOARD.COM. If Melbourne IT is required to delete Defendant's DNS 

records under this Paragraph, Defendant shall be entitled to have those records restored only after 

Defendant has paid its judgment in full and provided written assurances to Plaintiff that it will not 

repost the defamatory statements identified above. 

IT IS FURTHER ORDERED, ADJUDGED AND DECREED that Melbourne IT shall 

keep the domain name COMPLAINTSBOARD.COM on registrar lock for a period of one (1) year 

following the date of this Order. If Walton has reasonable cause to believe that Defendant's 

continued compliance with this Order is in doubt, it may petition the Court at any time for a 

continuation of the registrar lock provisions of this Paragraph.
