Author Jeff Trexler

Speaking of the Siegel litigation and Judge Larson’s decision to resign his judgeship, more details are out on the Superman case calendar between now and November 2nd.

  • The judge has offered to help mediate the case. The Siegels have agreed to go forward with that; the lawyers for DC, Time Warner & Warner Bros. are consulting with their clients.
  • Certain issues will be reviewed in connect with motions for reconsideration, with that hearing date scheduled for October 19.
  • The parties could not agree on a special master, so the judge is providing a list of approved individuals, along with a description of the special master’s duties and responsibilities should one be appointed.

    Hey Jeff,

    I really wanted to thank you for uploading all these court documents. What a fantastic public service.

    I was wondering if you’d run across the unpublished Jerry Siegel memoir that Judge Larson refers to in his August 12 opinion (“Creation of a Superhero,” Ex. R). I wasn’t able to find any reference to it in the exhibit lists you uploaded in January.
