WWE Appeals Jakks/THQ Decision

STAMFORD, Conn., Aug 29, 2008 — World Wrestling Entertainment issued a statement that its litigation efforts against Jakks/THQ would continue despite a ruling in Connecticut State Court:

“The decision today from Connecticut State Court says that the prior federal court decision in this matter precludes the Connecticut court from allowing WWE to present our case on the merits. We believe the federal court decision was wrong, and are taking steps to have it corrected on appeal.”
