Buchwald-Case Warning: Los Angeles Superior Court Judge...

Buchwald-Case Warning: Los Angeles Superior Court Judge Harvey Schneider said he may have to have his own expert examine Paramount Pictures’ books because of the “ephemeral” nature of material that has been supplied by Paramount and Art Buchwald in their dispute over profits from the film “Coming to America.” He warned the two sides that if testimony produces only “platitudes and all kinds of generalizations” about Hollywood accounting practices, he will ask an outside party to sort out the truth. Hearings are expected to begin in mid-October.
