The Golan v. Holder Decision


Decided to listen to Gordon P. Firemark, Esq.’s Entertainment Law Podcast Update in order to beef up on my intellectual and legal knowledge. During the podcast one case truly stood out.  Although the entertainment podcast was riddled with juicy and informative legal talk dealing with music licensing, video game combat helicopters, Velvet Underground vs Andy Warhol's Banana and copyright protection. However, it was the discussion of the U.S. Supreme Court’s decision on Golan v. Holder and the precedence it sets for future copyright cases that raised my eyebrows. So I took it upon myself to brush up on this case.
