Trevor Drinkwater, president of Genius Products, is quoted as saying, "We believe that Activision and 7 Studios have improperly used confidential information obtained from Genius and 7 Studios to interfere with our efforts to complete the game. In short, we believe that Activision is attempting to sabotage the release of our much anticipated game and prevent it from getting to market prior to the release of DJ Hero." Fighting words indeed!

Court case closed

Court finds in favor of "Scratch DJ"

A California judge has ruled in favor of Scratch DJ Game LLC, granting a temporary restraining order against Activision Publishing, ordering all Scratch intellectual property returned immediately.

Despite assurances on Thursday by Activision that the L.A. Superior Court saw no evidence of wrongdoing on their part, a judge today granted Genius Products and Numark Industries a temporary restraining order against Activision subsidiary 7 Studios, ordering the immediate return of all assets pertaining to the Scratch - The Ultimate DJ Game. The Court has also issued an injunction against 7 Studios preventing them from discussing game code or Scratch secrets with Activision or any other third party.

This all stems from a complaint from Genius Products and Numark Industries last Wednesday, alleging that Activision and 7 Studios had conspired to sabotage Scratch development in order to reduce competition for DJ Hero, Activision's own DJ title.
