Harry Potter Lawsuit

April 17, 2008

The creator of an online website called “The Harry Potter Lexicon” was recently sued by the books’ author, J.K Rowling, and their publisher. The website was created by a fan, a librarian, and it contains a detailed timeline, a dictionary, and other information from the Harry Potter world. The website was publicly praised by J.K. Rowling, but that fondness didn’t last once she learned that another publisher planned on printing a book version of the website. Is this clear cut copyright infringement, or is J.K. Rowling just alienating her fans and being greedy? Write your own comment and check out the other responses at: http://legallady.com/wordpress/?p=20

And if you swear you have never done such a thing, you surely know someone who has. Perhaps your kids or the guy in the cubicle next to you. It seems harmless enough, but how big a deal is it really? Is it truly a crime? If so, how could you ever get caught and how severe can the punishment really be?
