DOLL PARTS: Barbie maker Mattel Inc. settled with Carter Bryant--a
former employee who the company alleged drew sketches for the popular
Bratz line while working at Mattel then took the drawings to rival MGA
Entertainment. An infringement lawsuit the El Segundo-based toy maker
filed against Van Nuys-based MGA on the matter is still going forward. A
win for Mattel could result in damages of up to $360 million and $500
million in annual sales and licensing fees.
