The Michael Oher case brought to light another shocking example of the overuse of conservatorship. How did a court take away Michael Oher's basic decision-making rights, including the right to enter contracts, when he thought he was being adopted rather than consenting to a conservatorship? Who benefits from The Blind Side as well as Oher’s sports contracts and how do these arrangements compare to similar situations in which there is no guardian in place? What role do sports and entertainment lawyers have in making sure an athlete shares in the profits when his life story is told?

There's No Such Thing As A Free Bet: How To Stop Misleading The Public In Gambling Advertisments, Benjy Apelbaum

University of Michigan Journal of Law Reform Caveat

For many years, gambling was limited to lottery tickets and casinos in select states and Nevada was the only state where sports gambling was legal. In 2018, the Supreme Court ushered in a new era of gambling when it struck down the federal Professional and Amateur Sports Protection Act (PASPA) in Murphy v. National Collegiate Athletic Ass’n.

States are now free to regulate sports gambling, including mobile gambling on cell phones. Thirty-six states have legalized sports gambling, and twenty-nine of those states allow for mobile betting. Online casino games such as slots and blackjack have been legalized in six states. …

Likes, Camera, Action: Safeguarding "Child Influencers" Through Expanded Coogan Protections And Increased Regulation Of Social Media, Dana D. Joss

William & Mary Business Law Review

As a result of the increased popularity of influencer marketing, various “child influencers” have risen to stardom on popular social media platforms such as YouTube, TikTok, and Instagram. To date, these children have no protections under the law to safeguard them from the dangers of the influencer industry. Namely, there are no safeguards from financial exploitation by parents and guardians; children hold no guarantee that they can retain their earnings from social media. Further, there are no regulations in place regarding the number of hours child influencers may work and such children sometimes maintain little control over the extent of …

Robots As Pirates, Henry H. Perritt Jr.

Catholic University Law Review

Generative AI has created much excitement over its potential to create new works of authorship in the literary and graphical realms. Its underling machine-learning technology works by analyzing the relations among elements of preexisting material in enormous databases assembled from publicly available and licensed sources. Its algorithms “learn” to predict “what comes next” in different types of expression. A complete system thus can become glib in creating new factual summaries, essays, fictional stories and images.

A number of authors of the raw material used by Generative AI engines claim that the machine learning process infringes their copyrights. Careful evaluation of …

Give Or Take—Is The Droit De Suite A Taking Without Just Compensation?, Jeremy Cohen

Pepperdine Law Review

The Constitution mandates Congress to protect the arts and sciences directly by creating an exclusive right called copyright. However, visual artists such as painters, sculptors, and photographers in the United States still cannot participate in the significant profits from the secondary sales of their copyrighted works at public and private auctions. In over eighty countries worldwide, the droit de suite, also known as the Artist Resale Royalty (ARR), grants visual artists such royalties. Unfortunately, the United States currently lacks such a royalty, despite multiple unsuccessful attempts by Congress to pass federal legislation. Although California enacted its own version of the …
