'Da Vinci Code' Judged No Copyright Infringement

    Happy to know! Da Vinci Code really did a good job! Its film version starring by Tom Hanks is surely eager to be viewed. Now the plaintiffs of Michael Baigent and Richard Leigh need to pay a near 2 millions litigation fee!
    It would be quite wrong if fictional writers were to have their writings pored over in the way DVC (`Da Vinci Code') has been pored over in this case by authors of pretend historical books to make an allegation of infringement of copyright," Judge Peter Smith said in his 71-page ruling.

    Copyright doesn't protect ideas and copyright doesn't protect facts. That's why we have genres, fiction and nonfiction, and a number of people can write novels based on the same idea and still have freedom of expression."
