The estate of author James Joyce has agreed to pay $240,000 in legal costs incurred by a Stanford University scholar following a fair use legal battle over a book about Joyce’s daughter.
The settlement ends more than a decade of wrangling over Carol Shloss‘ book “Lucia Joyce: To Dance in the Wake,” which was to include copyrighted material from the celebrated author. Shloss was represented by attorneys from Stanford Law School’s Fair Use Project; Keker & Van Nest; and Howard Rice Nemerovski Canady Falk & Rabkin.
