Student Spotlight: Google v. Oracle Bulletin Preview

While the Thomson Reuters copyright suit against Ross is just getting started, the Supreme Court recently put an end to a long-running copyright dispute between Google and Oracle. Before the case was argued in the fall, Cornell Law students Thomas Shannon, Andrew Kingsbury, and Tyler Schmitt did an excellent job previewing the case for our Bulletin subscribers here: https://www.law.cornell.edu/supct/cert/18-956

You can listen to the oral argument and read a brief summary of the decision over at the Oyez Project here: https://www.oyez.org/cases/2020/18-956

And, of course, we have the entire opinion on our site at: https://www.law.cornell.edu/supremecourt/text/18-956

Will the Court’s latest pronouncement on fair use have any bearing on Westlaw’s claims against Ross? Only time will tell.
