Seuss, ComicMix close book on landmark copyright dispute over \’Star Trek\’ mashup


Dr. Seuss Enterprises LP and the makers of the Dr. Seuss/\”Star Trek\” mashup book \”Oh, the Places You\’ll Boldly Go!\” have settled Seuss\’ copyright infringement claims, according to a Tuesday filing in San Diego federal court.

The defendants\’ attorney Dan Booth of Dan Booth Law said in a statement that his clients settled because of Templeton\’s diagnosis of Stage 3 colorectal cancer earlier this year.

\”After five years of litigation and with the pre-trial deadlines looming, as Ty\’s collaborators and friends, we refuse to put him through any additional stress that would in any way impinge on his health and recovery. To the credit of the people at Dr. Seuss Enterprises, they didn\’t want to put Ty through that either,\” Booth said. \”So we joined in a motion to end the suit the day before Ty\’s surgery, in order to alleviate the less serious pain in his butt.\”
