We've heard flutters of reports about the ongoing lawsuit between Mattel and MGA over who really owns the design rights to the Bratz doll line, but hadn't really gotten into it until we read this story over at Reuters: "Bratz Designer Erased Computer Files." And once we started getting into the case, we really couldn't pull ourselves away. The whole thing just reads like a John Grisham legal thriller, but with, you know, dolls. If you're not familiar with the case, it basically all boils down to Bratz creator, Carter Bryant, who designed the absurdly popular doll line, and when he came up with the idea and who he was working for at the time. Mattel says it was them, but MGA says the same thing. And with eighty-bazillion dollars at stake, both sides are fighting tooth and nail. What's more, beyond the first half of the case, which was interesting enough, with things like Mattel's lawyers using maps and yearbooks to show that Bryan must've come up with the idea after driving past a specific high school at a specific time, it keeps getting better, with this new, undermentioned story, wherein Carter decided to use a computer program called "Evidence Eliminator" to erase a hard drive with all his early Bratz notes. Really, if "Evidence Eliminator" doesn't sound like something Grisham made up, then we don't know what is.
