Discussion Slated on Right of Publicity Litigation -- in San Francisco

By Michael Atkins

Sounds like a great program.

The Copyright Society of the U.S.A. (in San Francisco, unfortunately) has lined up a discussion titled, “Recent Cases on the Right of Publicity and the First Amendment.”

It’s going to be moderated by Prof. J. Thomas McCarthy.

The discussion will include recent litigation involving baseball and football athletes, and celebrities.

There’s still time to attend, even if you call Seattle home — it’s at noon on Jan. 11. It’ll be held at Covington & Burling LLP at One Front Street in San Francisco.

Cost is $20 for members and $25 for non-members, with lunch included.

Reservation form here.
