$20 – $25From the CSUSA Website:
“Professor Jane Ginsburg will address:
*How the US copyright fair use doctrine has allowed US federal judges in trademarks cases to connect with their inner comic impulses.
*The conflict between trademark law’s potentially eternal duration and copyright’s constitutionally mandated limited times, particularly in the context of visual characters such as Mickey Mouse.
*The refashioning of trademark symbols into copyrighted characters.
