At long last, the Great Ormond Street Hospital has responded to Emily Somma's complaint for declaratory judgment, filing today its
Motion to Dismiss.
GOSH argues that the Federal Court in California has no jurisdiction over it for this dispute between an English hospital and a Canadian author. While admitting that GOSH has done business with California movie makers, specifically licensing the copyright at issue in the suit, beginning with Disney, it denies doing business in California. This Motion is noticed for May 14, 2004 before the Honorable Jeffrey White in San Francisco.
Supporting Declarations: Andrew Fane, trustee of the Great Ormond Street Hospital.
