A special MLK Day Blawg Review

21stJan. × ’08

Public Defender Stuff has created a really special edition of Blawg Review, No. 143, in honor of Martin Luther King day. I urge you to check it out. As I am hosting Blawg Review #144 this next Monday, please get your submissions in early so they can be included.

Also on topic for today, here’s a link to the 1999 decision in Estate of Martin Luther King v. CBS, reported at 194 F.3d 1211 (11th Cir. 1999). It deals with the copyright status of the famous “I Have a Dream” speech and whether it was in the public domain.
