Judge Backs Salinger Blocks Catcher Sequel

A judge stepped in and blocked an author from publishing a sequel to the classic Catcher in the Rye. Yep. Not much else to say about that.

Another court triumph for JD Salinger: A federal judge has blocked the US publication of an unauthorized sequel to The Catcher in the Rye. The judge, who had issued a temporary restraining order last month, issued a more permanent injunction against the novel by Swedish author Fredrik Colting, reports the New York Times. It had been scheduled to come out this summer. Colting can still take the case to trial, but the judge said Salinger would likely prevail. src - Newser.com
