A common trend that is witnessed in cases where the courts have agreed or rejected the applicability of the CHD is when the application is not based …

Home Equity Theft: A Right Without A Just Remedy, Mitchell F. Crusto

Understanding Public Domain Case Citations, Joshua Levine

Library Staff Online Writings

I first learned about public domain citations after law school, when I was working on a fifty-state survey.

I thought that surely something was missing from these citations!

Discovery, Injury, And Diligence: Reconciling Subjective And Objective Copyright Limitations Standards Post-Warner Chappell, Dennis D. Crouch, Timothy Knight

Faculty Publications

This Article examines the evolving interpretation of the Copyright Act's statute of limitations in light of RADesign, Inc. v.
