Mattel Lawyer Accuses MGA Of Luring Bratz Designer; NPR/AP, 1/18/11

NPR/AP; Mattel Lawyer Accuses MGA Of Luring Bratz Designer:

"Toy rivals Mattel Inc. and MGA Entertainment Inc. on Tuesday began the second round of their lengthy legal battle over the rights to the wildly popular Bratz line, with two markedly different versions of the development of the multibillion-dollar brand.

In his opening statement at the copyright infringement case, Mattel attorney John Quinn said MGA conspired with Bratz designer Carter Bryant to steal the idea for Bratz while Bryant still worked for Mattel."
