Common Law Copyright, And Conversation, Frank J. Nawalanic

Cleveland State Law Review

Assume that "A" is a well known author and literary figure and that "B" is an author in his own right, but far less known than "A". "A" and "B" meet socially and engage in a stimulating conversation wherein thoughts and ideas are freely expressed and conclusions drawn. Sometime thereafter, "B" publishes excerpts from this conversation and "A" strongly desires to prevent such from being published and receiving publicity. To prevent publication of their conversation, "A" could proceed against "B" under several different causes of action. He could possibly allege breach of a fiduciary relationship, breach of implied contract, invasion …

Foreign Income In The Music Industry, Leo Strauss, Jr.

Vanderbilt Journal of Transnational Law

The record and music industries have grown tremendously and have become much more sophisticated in recent years. At one time a music publisher merely listened to a song and if he liked it he acquired the copyright. A recording artist or a recording A & R man would record those songs that he happened to like. Those who were lucky had their share of hits. This normally does not work any more, although it does in certain localized contexts. The record industry is big business and spans national borders as well as continents, affecting and bringing into contact with each …

Attorney's Fees As An Element Of Costs: The Copyright Experience, E. K. Ii

Georgia Law Review

The amount of money frequently involved in copyright litigation, especially on the part of the defendant, is trifling. The expense of any litigation is considerable. Unless, therefore, some provision is made for financial protection to a litigant, if successful, it may not pay a party to defend rights, even if valid, a situation opposed to justice.... It is increasingly recognized that the person who forces another to engage counsel either to vindicate, or defend, a right should bear the expense of such engagement and not his successful opponent.

Music And Law: Copyrighting A Musical Idea, Irving B. Marks, Robert M. Phillips

Cleveland State Law Review

The law of music copyright, although now quite old, is still relatively young in its development and refinement when compared to other segments of the copyright law. The impediment in its progress is partially due to the technicalities inherent in the discipline itself, and also to the lack of musical sophistication on the part of most law making bodies. Modern day electronic developments in recording and storing sound will do much to facilitate and broaden the scope of the law. Its implementation through a Music-Legal Board of Experts could be the effective step needed in order to overcome the present …

Copyrights-Limitations On Proprietor's Exclusive Right To Vend, David M. Ebel

Michigan Law Review

Plaintiff was the sole proprietor of copyrights on several educational toys. It had ordered a large number of these toys to be made by defendant manufacturer, but refused to accept them when tendered, claiming they were so defective in quality that their sale would impair plaintiff's reputation. When defendant manufacturer began selling the rejected toys to the co-defendants in order to recover its own investment in them, the plaintiff obtained a temporary restraining order against all defendants prohibiting further sales of the toys pending a determination of a motion for permanent injunction. The district court granted a preliminary injunction of …

Copyright Problems Of The Phonograph Record Industry, Sidney A. Diamond

Vanderbilt Law Review

This article addresses itself to several difficult questions. Are phonograph records copyrightable? What is the scope of a copyright owner's "mechanical reproduction right," and how exclusive is this right? What protection against infringement of the "recorded performance," as opposed to the musical composition incorporated in it, has the record manufacturer? What additional statutory protection might be granted in this area, and what of its constitutionality?

Copyright And Design Patents - The Common Zone Between, Albert P. Sharpe Iii

Cleveland State Law Review

The overlapping of our present-day Copyright and Design Patent Laws, apparently initially created by random legislative development and recently aggravated by the decision of the Supreme Court in Mazar v. Stein, has resulted in a legal morass of substantial proportions. The purpose of this paper is to explore briefly the influence which gave rise to this situation, to discuss the present state of the law and its practical impact upon the practicing patent advocate, and finally to review and evaluate proposed legislation, past and present, in an effort to determine the possible course of future developments.
