Judge Allows Suit Against J.K. Rowling To Proceed

A judge has ruled that the plagiarism lawsuit against J.K. Rowling may go forward, but only if the plaintiffs post cash and he indicated he thinks they are unlikely to succeed on the merits. The representatives of the late Adrian Jacobs are suing Ms. Rowling claiming she plagiarized Mr. Jacobs’ book “The Adventures of Willy the Wizard.”
