Acitvision proceedings are a former mayor of New York, Rudolph Giuliani. The request for a deviation of the claim was filed in the High Court of California. The publishing house asks to refuse the former dictator in the trial on the basis of the legislation of Southern California, where the lawsuit was filed.
«Surprisingly, Manuel Norieg — famous dictator who ended up in prison for terrible crimes, — I am unhappy that he was portrayed by the criminal and enemy of the state in the game of the Call of Duty series. Simply put, this is absurd. I will not help the convicted villain and smuggler of drugs», — Juliani said in open circulation to Activision.
In July, the lawyer Noriegi said that his image was used without permission to increase the sales of the shooter. The Panama leader demanded from the publisher part of the revenue earned from Call of Duty: Black Ops 2.
