French Publishers Association continues battle with Google
Posted by Alisa Zykova on January 21, 2010 at 4:48 PM
The French Publishers Association (SNE, Syndicat National de l'Edition) is going forth with its battle against search engine giant Google, which has been publishing numerous books online in violation of copyright laws, Le Figaro reported Wednesday.
Last month, the SNE and publishing group La Martinière celebrated a "big victory against the American giant" when a judge ruled in their favour on December 18, said SNE President Serge Eyrolles. The case will be transferred to American Judge Denny Chin before January 28.
According to Bookseller.com, the updated objections were different from those included in the first draft agreement, which was discarded after the U.S. Department of Justice did not approve it.
