illegal-art.org :: a project of Stay Free! magazine: "Good news! Tom Forsythe, has won a major victory in his case against Mattel. Mattel, you may recall, sued Forsythe over his Food Chain Barbie photographs; Forsythe won in federal discourt court, then again in circuit court. Now the district court has gone the extra mile. Calling Mattel's case 'objectively unreasonable' and 'frivolous,' the court has ruled that Mattel must pay Forsythe's team over $1.8 million to cover legal fees and court costs!

Major congrats to Tom and his (until now) pro-bono lawyers... but perhaps the real winners are the rest of us. This case sets a precedent, and, with luck, it'll discourage corporations from using copyright law to make frivolous cases against artists. | Read the court decision"
