Cases of Note-Copyright-Substantial Similarity
Bruce Strauch, Bryan Carson, Jack G. Montgomery · Against the grain · 2018
An attached schedule listed hundreds of greeting card designs among which was the disputed six.And Taylor sued Four Seasons for copyright infringement saying the six new were "substantially similar" to the former six.At the trial court, Taylor won on infringement and got an injunction against Four Seasons prohibiting any future use of the designs.Four Seasons appealed primarily on the basis the trial court had failed to identify what elements of the cards were original.Presumably wanting to use the unoriginal bits.
