copyright question

[Cynthia Schulz <cschulz@EAGLE.ESD189.WEDNET.EDU>]

Dear Group,
During this past summer, one of the lm_net members posted a notice about a
court case in which the Disney Corporation sued a teacher who had a poster
purchased from Disneyland on her bulletin board in her classroom.  The
person who posted it stated that the school district's fine was $600,000.
Does anyone know the particulars about this case?  I would appreciate
knowing whether it is factual or rumor.  I try to keep up on copyright
issues, but people always seem to find the cloudy areas.  Thanks for your
help on this issue.
