Armen Temurian’s lawsuit against Phil Piccolo and friends
was
dismissed with prejudice
.

The voluntary dismissal order overrode Piccolo’s counterclaim proceedings and closed the case.

Turns out Piccolo separately sued Temurian in Florida, and that lawsuit is still playing out.

Plaintiffs Phillip Piccolo (right), Kevin Dalton Johnson, Paul Morris and KFI Software sued Armen Temurian, Vista Technologies and Vista Network in December 2019.

The lawsuit was filed in Florida’s Broward County, and seeks to recover “hundreds of thousands if not millions” in damages.

At issue is the same unresolved matters brought up in Temurian’s California lawsuit.

In exchange for providing backend software support, Piccolo and his co-defendants allege they were awarded a “10% non-dilutable ownership interest in Vista Technologies”.

A contract was drawn in January 2018.

In order to facilitate the software integration, Vista Network

provide(d) Johnson with access to (Vista Network’s) existing MLM software.

The Plaintiffs allege

at no time did Vista Technologies indicate to Johnson that the data within its existing software was somehow confidential/proprietary or request that he treat it as such.

Nobody at Vista Technologies ever mentioned confidentiality with respect to this data or asked that any of the Plaintiffs sign any type of document restricting use/disclosure of the data.

Analysis of provided records revealed compatibility issues.

After hundreds of hours of working with that data, Johnson and his software team were finally able to fix the orphaned record and rebuild the structures.

Much to their frustration, no help or input was provided by Vista Technologies in order to accomplish this.

One interesting allegation in Piccolo’s lawsuit is the claim that Vista Network took in $12 million worth of cryptocurrency.

The Plaintiffs allege the missing money are losses attributable to Vista Network engaging in securities fraud.

The process of integrating Vista Network with the Plaintiff’s ecommerce system, revealed less than $100,000 was left in Vista Networks’ AlfaCoins merchant account as of February 2018.

Once Vista Network’s new system went live in February 2018, reports from affiliates regarding incorrect payments began to flood in.

After repeated attempts to have Vista Technologies deal with this to no avail, Johnson/Piccolo decided to handle the issues and credit any affiliates with the amount owed after researching the orders in the system and within the previous MLM software providers system.

Throughout this period the Plaintiffs allege Temurian and Vista Network failed to uphold their end of the January 2018 agreement.

Vista Technologies had agreed to deposit and trade on 8 bitcoin for Piccolo/Johnson’s benefit and – based on its supposedly proprietary trading algorithm – had guaranteed payment for 2.5% per day for perpetuity.

Defendants (also) agreed to provide $100,000 in digital cryptocurrency to begin tr
