The CDCA is one of the busiest districts in the country. If you're looking for an easy year, you probably should not apply.

DEATH OF COPYRIGHT	Sep 16, 2011, 8:22 PM
Re: Feess, Gary Allen	#57
From the Death Of Copyright by Steven t. Lowe... "Copyright Infringement... claims against motion picture studios and television net-works, for all intents and purposes, are dead.Of the 48 copyright infringement cases against studios or networks that resulted in a ﬁnal judgment within the Second and Ninth Circuits (and the district courts within those circuits) in the last two decades, the studios and networks prevailed in all of them—and nearly always on motions for summary judgment. In fact, in the last 20 years, only two publicly available copyright infringement cases (published or unpublished) against studios or networks proceeded to jury trial—with verdicts for the defendants. Substantial Similarity... Even when access is established, the path to a favorable judgment remains perilous for plaintiffs. In fact, in many cases in which summary judgment has been granted for defendants, the courts simply presumed that access existed. This is because "even massive evidence of access cannot by itself avoid the necessity of also proving the full measure of substantial similarity. And this full measure has become virtually impossible to establish under recent case law.To determine whether substantial similarity exists between works at the summary judgment phase, the Ninth Circuit has instructed that courts perform an "extrinsic" analysis of the works’ objective elements, focusing on "articulable similarities between the plot, themes, dialogue, mood, setting,pace, characters, and sequence of events." The above is the same as saying... it's ok to steal 4 slices of pizza as long as you don't take the entire pie. And that is the theory behind the "extrinsic test". Which the 9th and 2nd circuit use to throw out all copyright cases, but only against Major Studios and Networks. What is being done in the 9th and 2nd circuits is unconstitutional and defeats the very purpose of even having a Copyright Office.
