Marsu also accused Disney of fraudulent concealment; the judge noted that Disney had decided to not devote sufficient resources to the Marsupilami project, and had concealed this fact from Marsu.[20][21] Disney pays back the damage and hands the rights to the series back to Franquin's company Marsu Productions.
