Harry Potter Case: JK Rowling Goes Out With A Bang
The copyright lawsuit between JK Rowling and The Harry Potter Lexicon finished yesterday, but don't think you can go back to not giving a stuff about it again. As you remember, JK Rowling claims that The Harry Potter Lexicon unfairly and illegally plagiarises the Harry Potter novels, while the makers of The Harry Potter Lexicon just claim that it's nothing more than a reference book. And now the case has concluded. However, we won't know if JK Rowling or The Harry Potter Lexicon author Steven Vander Ark will win yet, because the judge needs to go away and think about it. And he won't do that until both JK Rowling and Steven Vander Ark have submitted written summations of their arguments to him. We're just guessing here, but we'd assume that Vander Ark's summation is going to be identical to Rowling's, but with a couple of words changed and cheaper-looking artwork.
