Choice Of Law And The Right Of Publicity: Rethinking The Domicile Rule, Mary LaFrance 2019 University of Nevada, Las Vegas -- William S. Boyd School of Law

Choice Of Law And The Right Of Publicity: Rethinking The Domicile Rule, Mary Lafrance

Scholarly Works

Determining the best choice of law principle for right of publicity claims, and persuading courts to adopt this principle, will enhance predictability for potential plaintiffs and defendants in the foreseeable future. To begin this process, this article by Professor Mary LaFrance takes a critical look at the widespread practice of applying the law of the celebrity's domicile to determine the existence of an enforceable right of publicity.

This article suggests that there are strong policy arguments against the domicile rule, and that courts adhering to the rule are confusing disputes over property ownership with disputes over liability for tortious injury …

Governing The Internet Of Everything, Scott J. Shackelford 2019 Indiana University

Governing The Internet Of Everything, Scott J. Shackelford

Cardozo Arts & Entertainment Law Journal

Since the term was first coined in the late 1990s, the "Internet of Things" has promised a smart, interconnected world enabling your toaster to text you when your breakfast is ready, and your sweatshirt to give you status updates during your workout. This rise of "smart products" such as Internet-enabled appliances has the potential to revolutionize both business and society. But the smart wave will not stop with stuff with related trends such as the Internet of Bodies now coming into vogue. It seems that, if anything, humanity is headed toward an Internet of Everything. Yet it is an open …


Bringing Swirly Music To Life: Why Copyright Law Should Adopt Patent Law Standards For Joint Authorship Of Sound Engineers, Andrew Nietes 2019 Fordham Law School

Bringing Swirly Music To Life: Why Copyright Law Should Adopt Patent Law Standards For Joint Authorship Of Sound Engineers, Andrew Nietes

Fordham Intellectual Property, Media and Entertainment Law Journal

Geoff Emerick, acclaimed sound engineer for The Beatles, passed away in October of 2018. Emerick helped shape The Beatles’ sound and worked to create many of their most recognized songs, yet, under the current joint authorship standards he likely would not be considered an author of these songs. This Note details the work carried out by sound engineers in the music industry and describes how current joint authorship standards affect them. It then proposes a reinterpretation of joint authorship in the copyright statute to ease these standards by borrowing from another area of intellectual property law.


Standing Up For Stand-Up Comedy: Joke Theft And The Relevance Of Copyright Law And Social Norms In The Social Media Age, Hannah Pham 2019 Fordham Law School

Standing Up For Stand-Up Comedy: Joke Theft And The Relevance Of Copyright Law And Social Norms In The Social Media Age, Hannah Pham

Fordham Intellectual Property, Media and Entertainment Law Journal

This Article reveals that while social norms offer protection to stand-up comedians against joke theft within the stand-up comedy industry, they do little to prevent joke theft outside the traditional comedy community. Joke theft has risen with the increased popularity and use of social media. In particular, joke aggregators such as “The Fat Jew” take and publish on social media jokes by other comedians. In the social media world, the norms system underperforms. Norms do little to protect against joke theft by joke aggregators because they exist outside of the industry and are unaffected by norms governing stand-up comedians.

Moneyball In The Era Of Biometrics: Who Has Ownership Rights Over The Biometric Data Of Professional Athletes?, Christopher Casher 2019 Schulich School of Law, Dalhousie University

Moneyball In The Era Of Biometrics: Who Has Ownership Rights Over The Biometric Data Of Professional Athletes?, Christopher Casher

Dalhousie Journal of Legal Studies

The 2003 release of Michael Lewis’s book, Moneyball, brought into the mainstream a new paradigm for professional sports management: the use of statistical analysis to identify currently undervalued athletes in an effort to gain a competitive advantage. This pressure to accurately value athletes has led, in part, to the widespread collection of professional athletes’ biometric data. While biometric data can create many benefits, its misuse can lead to detrimental outcomes for the athletes, including inequitable contract negotiations, loss of potential revenue from monetization of said data, and a loss of privacy. Thus, this paper seeks to determine who holds the …
