Unit II Case Study


Columbia Southern University



Unit II Case
Study

During this case study, The Birmingham Cougars football team changed their logo in

1999 due to a copyright infringement case against them by an artist in Birmingham,

Alabama named Jim Clark. Around 1996, Mr. Clark designed a logo for the team to use.

However, the

team never compensated the artist. However, when the team began their 1996 season, they used

a very similar design to Mr. Clarks for two (2) years without his permission. When the courts

heard the case did rule in Jim Clarks favored in which he was compensated, and the team

could no longer use his design.

Nevertheless, the team changed their logo, but to promote and advertise their brand for

the up-and-coming season, they need to show highlights of their best moments from throughout

the years. It posed a problem for the team because all of their footage was from using the logo

design that Mr. Clark created. Based on the research I have conducted; we will discuss if the

Cougar's Football team was protected by "the fair use act" and when using the logo and

showing the highlight film. Was this copyright infringement by using and displaying Jim

Clark's design once again publicly without his knowledge or consent? Lastly, in the Jim Clark

vs. Cougars football team case, we will discuss the Cougars argument and determine if

Congress has the right or power to regulate copyright infringement within a single state.

Cougar's use of the logo under the "Fair Use Act."

"The fair use act is the lawful use of a limited portion of another's work for purposes of

criticism, comment, news reporting, teaching, scholarship, and research that does not reduce
