| | |  Jo needs your help!
You may recall we told you last month that J.K. Rowling is engaged in a legal battle against auction site eBay regarding the site allowing the illegal sale of Harry Potter e-books.
Rowling’s lawyer contacted website JKR’s Army in an effort to enlist help from the author’s fans. In response, the site has posted a petition which you can sign to show your support for Rowling’s battle against eBay.
An excerpt from the petition reads as follows: Quote:
Furthermore, we suggest that eBay has acted in an irresponsible manner by not addressing this fraud and recommend that they remedy the situation by implementing the following changes at a minimum:
• refusing to list illegal merchandise such as materials which infringe on copyrights held by J.K. Rowling and any of her business partners;
• removing listings immediately when they are identified by J.K. Rowling, her legal representatives, or her business partners as infringing on copyrights or containing forged signatures;
• providing COA and authentication guidance whenever a signed book or piece of memorabilia is purchased (similar to what eBay already provides for purchasers of sports memorabilia); and
• providing authentication services free of charge when a buyer is seeking a refund from a seller due to alleged fraudulent behavior.
To sign the petition, click here.
