Disney lawsuit
In 2003, Le Calvez filed suit against Pixar and its distribution company Walt Disney Pictures, claiming that the story and the characters from this book were plagiarized in the film Finding Nemo. The author and his lawyer, Pascal Kamina, demanded from Disney a share of the profits from merchandising articles sold in France. Le Calvez and Kamina lost the lawsuit on 12 March 2004 and intended to file an appeal on 5 October 2004;[2] however, to date there has been no further action taken against Pixar on the matter.
