U.S. Court of Appeals Case No: 09-2555
U.S. District Court for the District of Minnesota - Minneapolis
[PUBLISHED] Murphy, Author, with Riley, Chief Judge, and John R.
Gibson, Circuit Judge]
Civil case - Intellectual property. Settlement agreement unambiguously
assigned ownership of certain copyrights to defendants, and the district
court did not err in granting defendants summary judgment on plaintiff's
claims concerning copyright violations; plaintiff's claims for breach of
the parties' settlement agreement must fail for the same reasons.
