The sale of Judy Garland's once-lost "Wizard of Oz" gingham dress was halted Monday by a U.S. district judge after a Wisconsin woman filed a lawsuit claiming the dress belonged to her.
U.S. District Judge Paul Gardephe granted a motion for a preliminary injunction Monday after hearing about the lawsuit wherein the ownership of the dress was brought into question.
