Show Notes

In this segment of "IP in the News," we dive into the fascinating legal battle over LeBron James' tattoo and its appearance in a popular video game. When tattoo artist Jimmy Hayden's creation was digitally replicated on LeBron's in-game likeness, a dispute erupted over copyright and ownership. Join us as we explore the court's decision, the implications for artists and celebrities, and the broader impact of intellectual property rights in the age of digital media. We discuss the complexities of who truly owns a work of art once it's inked onto a superstar.

 

Richard Gearhart and Elizabeth Gearhart, co-hosts of The Passage to Profit Show have this discussion with Justin Cooke from Empire Flippers and Webstreet, Mike Chesne from Tecton and Natalie Noel from NOËL Family Distillery.
