Statement by J.K. Rowling Regarding Today's Legal Proceedings Against RDR Books

NEW YORK, April 16 /PRNewswire/ -- The following is a statement by J.K. Rowling:

"The book at the heart of this case has overstepped a boundary so unreasonably that I have been forced, regretfully, to take legal action. Authors have a right to protect their works from misuse. Do I have fewer rights because many people read my books? If this book is published, it will open the floodgates for anyone to lift an author's work and present it as their own. But if it is not published, that will be a boon not only to all who create original works, but to all who enjoy those works."
