Disney loses song challenge: "US entertainment giant Walt Disney today lost its court bid to set aside a lawsuit filed by a local Zulu family in South Africa for royalties from the hit song The Lion Sleeps Tonight... Pretoria High Court judge Hekkie Daniels today dismissed Disney's urgent application to cancel a court order that its trademarks in South Africa can be sold to collect damage money. A total of 240 trade marks, including Mickey Mouse and Donald Duck, were cited in the order by a South African court handed down on June 29."
