Authors and Authors' Estates Sue Topps Company for Unpaid Royalties - Writer Beware (R)

Authors and their heirs are Topps Company for back royalties for books written for the BattleTech and Shadowrun games.
Always know what you sign.
Here's an interesting post Panzer found on the Writer Beware (R) site.
 
Victoria Strauss' post covers the lawsuit by authors and their heirs against the Topps Company. These are BattleTech and Shadowrun book authors and heirs suing for unpaid royalties. It's an interesting and complicated case because of all the business sales and closings. Included in the post are links to contracts, the court case and other information.
 
Panzer says, "See if you can follow the trail to figure out what's happening."
 
Note: This is a medium length post, but because of all the links you'll need to decide what to bring to snack on.
