Author's offspring lacks licence for Little Mole products according the court. The contract based on which the late author's granddaughter Karolina Milerova has been granting licences for Little Mole products is invalid and she therefore has no licence or the right to grant sub-licences to producers, the appeals High Court in Prague decided. It upheld the claim of Milena Fischerova, a lawyer managing the inheritance of artist Zdenek Miler (1921-2011) who is the author of the worldwide popular cartoon figure of the Little Mole. Fischerova manages the inheritance pending the continuing negotiations on its division by Miler's heirs. The verdict is definitive. (CTK Photo/Vit Simanek)
