CALIFORNIA TATTOO LITIGATION CASE LAW UPDATES

Tattoos have been a part of human culture for centuries, and their popularity shows no signs of waning. In the United States, the tattoo industry is worth an estimated $2.3 billion, with over 45 million Americans sporting at least one tattoo. Given the widespread popularity of tattoos, it's not surprising that some people try to cash in on other people's designs. Unfortunately, this can lead to instances of tattoo copyright infringement.

One recent case (NOT THE CASE DISCUSSED IN THIS VIDEO) involved jazz legend Miles Davis. After Davis's death in 1991, his estate began licensing his name and likeness for use on a variety of products, including clothing and theater merchandise. In 2016, the estate learned that a company called Tattoos for Lovers was selling t-shirts featuring a design that included a portrait of Davis along with the words "Miles Davis - Jazz Trumpet Legend." The estate sent a cease and desist letter to the company, but the company continued to sell the shirts. As a result, the estate filed a lawsuit against the company for copyright infringement.

While this case is currently still working its way through the courts, it highlights the potential legal difficulties that can arise when someone tries to profit from another person's tattoo design. So if you're going to create, make sure to be original!!
