Mattel plans to appeal against a federal judge's award of more than US$309 million ($375 million) to rival toymaker MGA Entertainment in the fight over ownership of the popular Bratz fashion doll line.
The toy giant's lawyers filed papers yesterday declaring their intent to appeal against last week's decision by US District Court Judge David Carter.
Mattel says it wants to find a resolution "that allows us to conclude this litigation on terms that are reasonable and fair".
