ALT Two photos sit side-by-side. The photos compare an original photo of the rockstar Prince with a portrait made by Andy Warhol. The two photos are at the center of a legal battle for what is and is not protected by the doctrine of fair use in copyright law.
The cases:
-Andy Warhol's estate makes a case for fair use in Warhol's portrait of Minnesota's own Prince;
-Use of skinny drug labels for potentially patented uses;
-Can you base damages for U.S. trademark infringements on foreign sales?
