A judge at the High Court in London rejected the claim by U.S. publisher Peer International Corp. against Cuban state-owned publisher Editora Musical de Cuba. The U.S. company had claimed that its entire catalog of around 600 titles had been unlawfully taken over by the Cuban government after Fidel Castro came to power.
