NEW YORK (Reuters) - A U.S. judge on Monday ruled in favour of Warner Brothers Entertainment Inc and author J.K. Rowling over the publication of an unofficial encyclopaedic companion to the popular Harry Potter book series.
Judge Robert Patterson in U.S. District Court in Manhattan wrote an opinion that said independent U.S. book publisher RDR Books “had failed to establish an affirmative defence of fair use” and publication of “The Harry Potter Lexicon” should be halted.
