Poor J.K. Rowling. The law is making her sue. Obviously she is also just a victim of how the law works.

I'm guessing it will become all the more painfull for her, because she will probably win this one as well. And rightly so. She was thinking of making a lexicon herself, which will obviously sell less if there is another lexicon available. And thus they should pay poor Rowling a lot of money as compensation for stealing from her. I think they could calculate the millions of lexicons Rowling would not sell because of this lexicon and multiply that by 20 dollar to come to a fair compensation for the "lost sales" that they were trying to steal from her.
