Correct me if I am wrong, but I thought a US Federal court ruled the UK judgment unenforceable in the US based on the First Amendment, before the ruling by the NY court. If this is the case the NY ruling is insignificant in that it doesn’t change the initial Federal court ruling. The only wrong ruling would have be to uphold the UK court ruling. It does leave the door wide open to sue the little arab weasel when he sets foot in the states. The author has neither won nor loss in the sense that her options are still wide open. But she has won here in the US because she is still free to write and have her work published.
