| The Harry Potter Decision, as text - Updated |
|
I'm getting quite a bit of email about the J.K. Rowling Harry Potter decision in the copyright infringement suit, and so I know you are interested in it. So here you go, the Order [PDF]. I've done it as text for you as well. And to help you understand even better, here's [PDF] what the fan site suggested to the judge for findings and order, and here's what [PDF] Time Warner/Rowling thought would be appropriate. The latter document also has six exhibits, which I'll get for you too, if there is sufficient interest. But this is, I believe, enough for you to grasp why the judge made the decision he did. It must have been an very hard decision, and Rowling certainly didn't win every claim. The court rejected the allegations of bad faith and willfulness, as I'll show you. I think you can see that just in the money damages order, which are very, very low, the absolute statutory minimum. |
