The UCI Intellectual Property, Arts, and Technology Clinic has completed the 2024 update to our Fair Use Jurisprudence Project, a searchable, sortable database featuring abstracts and analysis of every written judicial opinion that discusses fair use since January 1, 2019. This useful resource has been lauded from California to Washington as a go-to research tool for litigators, counselors, and scholars alike. The database now includes 225 entries documenting how courts have assessed fair use throughout the United States over the last five years. Each entry contains an abstract of the case and many contain editorial notes with commentary written by members of the Clinic. Going forward, we will be updating this resource on a weekly basis. Check back every Monday for updates!
Later this fall, we will be releasing analysis of this database, looking at trends, volume of opinions, and the impact of the Supreme Court’s decisions in Google v. Oracle and Warhol Foundation v. Goldsmith. Stay tuned to the Fair Use Jurisprudence Project home page for updates!
