Judge Denies Disclosures in "Hurt Locker" Case

A federal magistrate judge in South Dakota has denied an attempt by the producers of the Oscar-winning film "The Hurt Locker" to obtain the identities of 143 accused illegal file sharers from their Internet service provider. The judge's decision, however, likely means only a temporary delay for Voltage Pictures, the independent studio which made "The Hurt Locker."
