The estate just won't quit:
Quote:
The Doyle estate summons a host of other literary characters in its submission to the Supreme Court, arguing that the appeals court's decision leaves Hercule Poirot, Miss Marple, The Cat in the Hat, James Bond, and even Winnie the Pooh without copyright protection based on the earliest date they entered the public domain.
The estate is asking the Supreme Court to put the ruling on hold while it prepares an appeal.

Trying to draw in others (including Disney) won't work.
It is doubtful SCOTUS will even take up the case.
