A federal judge has set a date for Round 2 of the battle between toymaker rivals Mattel Inc. and MGA Entertainment as they duke it out over ownership of the pouty Bratz doll line.

U.S. District Judge David Carter has ordered a Jan. 11 trial date  and dismissed a motion by MGA to toss out Mattel’s allegations of racketeering.

A federal jury awarded Mattel $100 million in 2008 and shifted ownership of the sultry, street-wise Bratz dolls to Barbie-maker Mattel.

A federal appeals court overturned that ruling last month and indicated the need for a retrial.

Mattel believes the man who designed the Bratz dolls was working for it when he created them.
