Yoko Ono wins one round of film lawsuit

A judge Wednesday accepted Yoko Ono's motion to throw out allegations filed by World Wide Video LLC that accused Ono of copyright infringement over rare footage of John Lennon, said Ono's Boston lawyer, Jonathan M. Albano, reported the Boston Herald and Associated Press. An attorney for World Wide Video, Ono's opponents in the suit, said, "We need to study our options to see what we'll do next." The judge did not rule on two other issues -- that Ono owns the copyright to the tapes and that another defendant had no right to sell the tapes to her.
