TLC: 1, Jon Gosselin: 0
It's like the world just received an early Christmas present!
After failing to show up in court on Thursday, a judge has granted TLC's request of a preliminary injunction against Jon Gosselin.
In other words, Jon can't do any more unapproved interviews or pursue other TV deals.
Ha!
The judge seemed to agree with TLC that Jon's behavior was "embarrassing" especially when he showed up at a Las Vegas pool party saying "It made the show look bad. Photos of Jon Gosselin with scores of bikini-clad women was inconsistent with our image brand of our show."
Since Jon's primary lawyer Mark Heller wasn't allowed to practice in Maryland, his other lawyer, Peter Toumbekis argued that his client's lifestlye hadn't done any "irreparable harm" and because of all the controversy it caused ratings to explode.
Luckily the judge didn't buy that bullshiz and with the newly granted injunction TLC is most likely to win when they go to trial against the douchebag in April 2010.
After the judge's decision TLC was happy to release this statement:
"We are pleased with the Court’s ruling today. The Court has validated our view that Mr. Gosselin has a valid, binding contract and that he has breached it repeatedly. Step one — getting the court to order Mr. Gosselin to comply with his contractual obligations — has been accomplished. Any further breaches going forward will be violations of a court order. We look forward to the next phase of the litigation, which is to pursue our claim for damages resulting from Mr. Gosselin's numerous breaches."
Congrats on an early win!
Now if only the judge could have done something to stop Homewrecking Hailey from opening her trap.

No new TV deals for Jon Gosselin? What a loss for the world.
Thank you, TLC! I'm sick of that ugly mug.
Now I bet TLC will get a huge settlement against Jon, which will be forgiven when Jon decides a reality show isn't really exploiting his kids. Kate plus 8 is coming.
who cares about this tool anymore?
I'm sure Jon has been kicking his own azz for a couple of weeks now. He had it good and for being selfish and vindictive against his wife, now Karma is gonna beat his chubby bald azz…hahahahahahahah He gets exactly what he deserves..better start looking for work dude…you have 8 college funds to save for since you ruined it for your kids.
dewsh
He stopped production on the show so he officially has no income. LMAO karma is a b!tch it's back to a desk job for you.
Talk about biting the hand that feeds…Gosselin wouldn't have ANYTHING he has now (including his pre-teen girlfriend) if it weren't for TLC. He's severed that tie and I suspect will be personna non gratta for any organization that has an ounce of class. He may actually have to go back to work to support his family rather than letting his family support him. Stick it to him TLC and Kate!!!
I know it didn't seem possible during the media craziness last summer, but we should have all known that Jon Gosselin would be held responsible by TLC for his embarassing behavior. Just knowing that he's well on his way to disappearing forever is restoring my faith in man kind! Whew!
Congrats TLC!!
It is Time to have a new epiphany Jon!!
Douche!!
I hope that nasty asshole Kate goes away too.
The judge granted the injuction so he could explore the matter more thoroughly. If you are going to post this stuff, you should read the decision and not just repeat Kate's Lawyers press releases.
I have a massive dislike for TLC and all their exploitive tv shows. It would appear once you agree to deal with the devil (TLC) your soul is theirs forever. Perez wil be singing a different tune once they start to fuck Kate around and with money hungry douche bags like them, it won't be too long.
He doesn't seem to think he has to stop himself even though he knows he's under contract, so the court has to do it for him. He signed on TLC's dotted line.
Why does he always have a stupid look on his face?
Thank you Judge!!! This as*hole deserves to end up in the gutter begging for spare change. Did he really think TLC would cave to his demands???? What an idiot. He made himself UNTOUCHABLE and then pulled the plug on his kids. Do they come any more stupid than Jon? Now we will hear all his whining about how he is being picked on again, but NO ONE CARES!!!!
if we all quit paying attention,they will fuck off
Im commenting here because perez turned off the comments on the previous post for his precious lady gaga….. Antonio Berandi is a genius of a designer and what he said about lady gaga is spot on. shes pointless, meaningless and her music wont ahve an impact in 2o years, where as his designs are admired by celebrities all over the world. lol jokes on you and goo goo perez
