Congratulations to Bob McNamara of the Institute for Justice for masterfully arguing before the #SupremeCourt yesterday that the #FifthAmendment's #TakingsClause means what it says about #PropertyRights.

Hopefully, this will be the ninth #SCOTUS win for #IJ.

You can listen to or read a transcript of the argument at https://www.supremecourt.gov/oral_arguments/audio/2023/22-913

Is it not true that you no longer have to submit a copy of your work to the #CopyrightOffice to register it. The #ValencourtBooks decision involved a section of the Copyright Act that doesn't have anything to do with registration, but rather is about giving copies of works to the Library of Congress for their collection gratis. #Copyright #TakingsClause

The last set of regularly scheduled #SCOTUS arguments this term start next week. Highlights include an important #TitleVII religious accommodation case and what is a #TrueThreat in the social media context (plus a foreclosure #TakingsClause case that has a lot of attention). https://profzwolfe.com/2023/04/12/april-2023-arguments/
