Holland & Knight Attorneys Nominated for ICABA's™ 'South Florida's 100 Most Accomplished Blacks' and 'Rising Stars'

Intellectual Property and Technology: Alert - March 4, 2010

In its March 2, 2010 Reed Elsevier decision, the Supreme Court determined that the registration requirement for filing lawsuits under the Copyright Act does not present a jurisdictional bar – despite the more than 200 lower court opinions holding that it does. This alert explains the history of the case as well as the Court decision. It suggests that the ruling is, in practical terms, extremely narrow – but that it will most likely affect cases that concern mass-scale infringement claims or class action claims, and it may make courts more sympathetic to hearing claims on works with pending applications for copyright registration.
