What is the name of your state? I need your opinion on the matter, even if we're in different countries
A friend used my name to enter a story writing competition. The piece she wrote was about experiences on ghosts she had with our past company's office building. She used the same 1st names of the people she worked with in her story about ghosts.
Her story got published in a small compilation called TRUE PHILIPPINE GHOST STORIES. And now one of the people she referred to (only in given name, no sir names were written) in her story is sueing me for calling her a bitch in the story. She's sueing me because my friend used my name in her submission because she was already affiliated with a publishing company.
Does the person threatening to sue have a strong case?
