Employee Relations LAW JOURNAL
VOL. 47, NO. 2 AUTUMN 2021 Employee Relations LAW JOURNAL A Guide to Drafting Effective Assignments of Copyrights and Patents in Employment Agreements and Beyond – Part I Steven H. Sholk In this two-part article, the author addresses the assignments that are necessary for employers to ensure their ownership of copy- rights and patents with reasonable certainty. In this first part, the author discusses the scope of copyright and patent protection and then authorship and copyright ownership of works made for hire; an author’s moral rights for works of visual art not made for hire; the rights of termination and recapture of copyright trans- fers for works not made for hire; specially ordered or commis- sioned works of independent contractors as works made for hire; works created by an employee within the scope of employment as works made for hire; the scope of employment under an employ- ment agreement; assignment of copyright for works not made for hire; and more. The second part, which will appear in an upcom- ing issue of Employee Relations Law Journal, will continue the analysis. “[T]he rule [for patent assignments] nonetheless remains a technical drafting trap for the unwary.” Board of Trustees of the Leland Stanford Junior University v. Roche Molecular Systems, Inc., 563 U.S. 776, 800 (2011) (Breyer, J., dissenting). Steven H.

With Termination of Copyright Grants, Disco Lives
With termination of copyright grants, disco lives Timothy J. Lockhart Willcox Savage © December 24, 2012 Inside Business A little-known provision of the Copyright Act of 1976 (Act) may soon acquire major importance. Under Section 203 of the Act (17 U.S.C. § 203) a copyright assignment or license may, under certain circumstances, be terminated 35 years after being granted. Because the Act became effective on January 1, 1978, the first date on which such termination can be effective is January 1, 2013. As illustrated by the ongoing case of Scorpio Music S.A. v. Willis, No. 3:11-cv-01557-BTM-RBB (S.D. Cal. filed July 14, 2011)—involving disco hits by the Village People—disputes over Section 203 terminations have already begun and will likely increase as more authors become aware of their termination rights. Section 203 permits an author or his or her heirs to terminate the author’s “exclusive or nonexclusive grant of a transfer or license of copyright or any right under a copyright” made on or after January 1, 1978, provided that the termination right is exercised within five years after the end of the 35-year period. If the grant covers the right to publish a work, the termination period begins at the earlier of (a) 35 years after publication under the grant or (b) the end of 40 years after execution of the grant. The right is permanently lost if not exercised within that five-year window. The person(s) exercising the termination right must give proper notice to the grantee or its successor at least two but not more than 10 years before the termination date.

The Village People by Robert Kellerman
The Village People by Robert Kellerman Encyclopedia Copyright © 2015, glbtq, Inc. Entry Copyright © 2002, glbtq, Inc. Reprinted from http://www.glbtq.com The Village People were a disco-era singing group formed in the late 1970s. Although the group never identified itself as gay, its primary appeal was clearly to a gay male audience. It successfully translated the interests, coded language, and iconography of the gay male subculture into music that crossed over into mainstream pop. Because the general public was largely unaware of the meanings and suggestiveness of the lyrics and costumes associated with the group, the gay audience not only enjoyed the music on its own terms, but also relished the irony of a mainstream audience unknowingly embracing subculture values and images. The Village People were formed in 1977 by French record producer Jacques Morali, who was inspired to create the group after seeing performer Felipe Rose, dressed as a Native American, singing and dancing in the streets of Greenwich Village. Hence the group's name. Morali approached Rose about forming a group and then, with his partner Henri Belelo, auditioned other singers by advertising in trade publications for "singers with mustaches." All members of the group performed in costume to represent other masculine (and, not coincidentally, gay male fantasy) archetypes: Native American Rose, construction worker David Hodo, policeman Victor Willis, soldier Alex Briley, cowboy Randy Jones, and biker leatherman Glenn Hughes. Rose was openly gay, but the other singers never addressed their sexual orientation. Regardless, The Village People's core audience was undeniably gay men, and their most popular hits were overtly homoerotic.

“Y.M.C.A.”--The Village People (1978) Added to the National Registry: 2019 Essay by Josiah Howard (Guest Post)*
“Y.M.C.A.”--The Village People (1978) Added to the National Registry: 2019 Essay by Josiah Howard (guest post)* Aside from their shared dream of becoming rich and famous, Village People--all six band members--really didn’t have much in common. Still, their outsize fantasy, one that they’d work tirelessly to achieve, would prove to be enough. For a time at least. Mention the Village People and you’ll probably hear a snicker or two, or get a pointed pursed lip and side-eye. If that doesn’t happen you might watch as someone throws their arms into the air and contorts them into the shape of the letters Y, M, C, and A. During the late 1970s and early '80s, Village People sold more than 100 million records, had three top ten pop hits, four top twenty dance/club hits, toured the world (selling out New York City’s 20,789-seat Madison Square Garden twice), and made a major motion picture--1980’s “Can’t Stop the Music.” They were award winners, television staples and pop culture icons whose music played everywhere: from discotheques to doctor’s offices, from underground sex clubs to bar mitzvahs, from sporting events to the local mall. And they did something more. As Casablanca Records President Neil Bogart once unequivocally observed, “It’s just Donna (Summer) and the boys (Village People): they’re the ones who keep the lights on around here.” They kept the lights on elsewhere as well. The brainchild of French/Moroccan music producers Jacques Morali and Henri Belolo--who’d previously made a name for themselves with two top twenty hits for the Ritchie Family--1975’s “Brazil” and 1976’s “The Best Disco in Town”-- Village People, it was decided, was going to do what the Ritchie Family had not managed to: ascend to the number one spot on the all-important “Billboard” pop charts.
