Feeling Cute, Might [Have To] Delete Later: Defending Against The Modern Day Copyright Troll, Austin Joseph

Journal of Intellectual Property Law

The age-old clash between celebrities and paparazzi has reached a new high. With the trend moving towards the monetization of social media, evolution in mobile camera technology, and lighting-fast sharing capabilities, the need for paparazzi decreases with each year. Because paparazzi want to remain desirable, the infamous conduct of “copyright trolling” is sweeping the intellectual property scene. “Copyright trolling” is the act of searching social media and suing multiple celebrities when the celebrity post a photo of themselves without first paying the licensing fee. Within this year alone, multiple celebrities like Rebel Wilson, Ariana Grande, and Liam Hemsworth have been …

Shockingly Evil: The Cruel Invasive Appropriation And Exploitation Of Victims' Rights Of Publicity In The True Crime Genre, Ashton Williams

Journal of Intellectual Property Law

America's obsession with the true crime genre has evoked an explosion in volume and variety of recreations of the country's most prolific crimes. The never-ending re-enactments constantly barrage the victims and family members of those who suffered at the hands of the killers. The nightmare of the crimes they already endured never cease, as victims are forced to relive their worst torments via movies, television shows, and podcasts discussing the crimes. Producers and directors are currently free to appropriate and capitalize off of individuals' images without so much as a consultation. From dramatic depictions by actors to docuseries evaluations of …

"You Got Too Much Dip On Your Chip!" How Stagnant Copyright Law Is Stifling Creativity, Taylor Bussey

Journal of Intellectual Property Law

Over time, our concept of what qualifies as an author has changed–specifically with the dominance of the internet. Tangentially, our idea of what it means to be a joint author has changed. What once would have required physical proximity now can be accomplished via the internet in a matter of seconds. Authors from all around the globe can collaborate. Geographic limitations present virtually no constraint on the number of individuals that can contribute to a work. Human creativity, however, has remained the same. When creating, authors naturally draw on their human experience. Without tailoring modern copyright law to modern trends …

The Economic Burdens Of Life: Trade Secrecy And The Insulin Pricing Crisis In The United States, Emily Hanson

Journal of Intellectual Property Law

Approximately one in every ten Americans lives with diabetes, a condition that inhibits the body’s ability to regulate blood sugar. The majority of those with diabetes rely on insulin injections to control the condition and avoid the dire health consequences that can quickly result from insufficient insulin. The price of insulin has risen 700% in the past two decades, with burdensome if not disastrous consequences for individual patients and for public health more generally. Federal law provides a pathway for manufacturers of follow-on pharmaceuticals, including insulin, to obtain abbreviated approval from the FDA without repeating costly clinical trials by showing …

Private Schools' Role And Rights In Setting Vaccination Policy: A Constitutional And Statutory Puzzle, Hillel Y. Levin

Scholarly Works

Measles and other vaccine-preventable childhood diseases are making a comeback, as a growing number of parents are electing not to vaccinate their children. May private schools refuse admission to these students? This deceptively simple question raises complex issues of First Amendment law and statutory interpretation, and it also has implications for other current hot-button issues in constitutional law, including whether private schools may discriminate against LGBTQ students. This Article is the first to address the issue of private schools’ rights to exclude unvaccinated children. It finds that the answer is “it depends.” It also offers a model law that states …
