Back and Better Than Ever!

I am done studying with the bar. Let's just say that everything looked familiar enough, but I pray that it was enough to pass. Now let's get right into what's going on in the world of Fashion Intellectual Property:

Footwear News did a blurb about how the American Bar Association is backing the Design Piracy Prohibition Act or a modified legislation that would protect designers a little better:

"The adopted Resolution 2008 Council-1A reads, in part, '…believing that there is sufficient need for greater intellectual property protection than is now available for fashion designs, [the section] supports, in principle, enactment of federal legislation to provide a new limited copyright-like protection for such designs….'
