Description
Abstract: Work-for-hire agreements generally give the hiring party, instead of the creator, ownership of any work’s copyright. But as a recent Second Circuit case proves, third parties may be able to rely on the work-for-hire doctrine to crush a copyright infringement claim by a work’s creator. This article summarizes the case. Urbont v. Sony Music Entertainment, No. 15-1778, July 29, 2016 (2nd Cir.)
