I took a class on copyright law in law school, and I find it very interesting.<BR/><BR/>Have you heard about the copyright infringement case that a Canadian author brought against the makers of the movie "Knocked Up" claiming that they copied her novel? I just wrote a blog post about this and then discovered your blog while looking up Learned Hand's famous "Ode to A Grecian Urn".

First they send her home with a nice ankle bracelet. Next, the judge orders her to be driven at county expense to the courthouse. Finding that she was apparently jewelry impaired, the deputies put a nice pair a wrist bracelets on her as well. It is just as well that she is not named in the civil suit. It would be too expensive to extend her the courtesies normally given to copyright defendants.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
