Gentlemen:

         At your request,  we have examined the  Registration  Statement on Form
S-8 (the  "Registration  Statement") to which this letter is attached as Exhibit
5.1 filed by New Motion, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "Company"),  in order
to register under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Act"),  2,531,684
shares of common stock of the Company (the  "Shares"),  issuable  pursuant to i)
the Company's 2007 Stock  Incentive  Plan (the "2007 Plan");  (ii) the Company's
2005  Stock  Incentive  Plan (the  "2005  Plan");  and (iii)  issuable  upon the
exercise  of options  granted to Burton  Katz,  the  Company's  Chief  Executive
Officer,  pursuant to an Individual Stock Option Agreement (the Individual Stock
Option Agreement, together with the 2007 Plan and the 2005 Plan, are hereinafter
referred to as the "Documents").

         We have  examined  originals  or  certified  copies  of such  corporate
records of the Company and other  certificates and documents of officials of the
Company,  public officials and others as we have deemed appropriate for purposes
of  this  letter.  We  have  assumed  the  genuineness  of all  signatures,  the
authenticity  of all documents  submitted to us as originals,  the conformity to
authentic  original  documents of all copies  submitted  to us as conformed  and
certified or reproduced copies.


         We are of the  opinion  that the Shares have been duly  authorized  and
upon issuance and sale in  conformity  with and pursuant to the  Documents,  and
upon receipt by the Company of the consideration  therefore,  the Shares will be
validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable.


         We consent to the use of this opinion as an Exhibit to the Registration
Statement  and to the use of our  name  in the  Prospectus  constituting  a part
thereof.


                                             Respectfully submitted,

                                             /s/ Stubbs Alderton & Markiles, LLP
