A judge said this week that two photographs of Barbra Streisand's Malibu, Calif., estate posted on a conservation Web site do not violate the entertainer's privacy.
Superior Court Judge Allan Goodman rejected Streisand's request for an injunction that would remove the photos from a Web site devoted to the California coastline. He also ordered her to pay the defendant's legal fees.
Streisand filed a $10 million suit in May against retired software entrepreneur Kenneth Adelman, his Internet service provider and Pictopia.com, a photo agency that distributes his work.
Streisand claimed the photos, which show things that can't be seen by ordinary passers-by, potentially contributed to a problem with stalkers.
Adelman said he posted the photos taken from his private helicopter for scientific research on the coastline. He has posted more than 12,000 photos on the Web site.
Streisand's attorney, John Gatti, said Streisand had sought to reaffirm that "everyone should have privacy and security."
He said an appeal was possible.
