Summary
Paul Goldstein, a Stanford University law professor, said the court might need to decide whether the statue was based on Sanders’s typical running stance or Kee’s photo. Kevin Greene, a professor at Southwestern Law School in Los Angeles, said if the court finds that the sculptors re-created Kee’s photo, “it’s a pretty clear-cut case of copyright infringement.”
