TL;DR

A New Jersey court has ordered TCE Presents, the promoter behind Teksupport, to stop producing events after November 7 and place its assets in escrow. The ruling stems from a lawsuit between company partners and requires nonessential staff to be dismissed by Friday. The business partnership is dissolved, with each side permitted to form new companies independently.

A New Jersey judge has ordered TCE Presents, the company behind Teksupport, to shut down its event business after November 7 and freeze its assets, according to a report from Unmixed Magazine. The ruling stems from ongoing litigation between the company's partners in the case Toma v. Vitacco.

Immediate Staffing and Financial Restrictions

The court order adopts recommendations from a special fiscal agent appointed in mid-July. Employees classified as nonessential must be dismissed by Friday, though the order does not specify who falls into that category or how many people will be affected. After November 30, the company's bank accounts may not be used without court approval.

Judge Thomas D. Mcloskey of the Superior Court of New Jersey directed that outstanding bills will be paid only for shows produced before November 6. Following the November 7 cutoff, the company's assets will be frozen and liquidation will begin.

Partnership Dissolved, Questions Remain for Scheduled Events

The ruling dissolves the business partnership between the Vitaccos and Robert Toma. Each side must form a new company and may organize events independently, but both are barred from using services from entities tied to the parties, including TAG and Flush To Go.

The order raises questions about scheduled events, including a three-day CircoLoco Halloween at Brooklyn Storehouse from October 30 to November 1 and a show at The Chocolate Factory on November 6. It remains unclear what will happen to the latter concert, since the order covers payables only for shows held before that day.

Ownership and Bankruptcy Questions Unresolved

The ruling does not address who will own the Teksupport name once assets are sold, or how the order might affect bankruptcy proceedings for TAG, a related company that filed for restructuring in November 2025. A retired judge will remain as mediator and special discovery adjudicator, and a hearing originally set for August 21 is still waiting for a new date.
