164483P.pdf   08/09/2018  Bruce Munro  v.  Lucy Activewear, Inc.
   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  16-4483
   U.S. District Court for the District of Minnesota - Minneapolis   
   [PUBLISHED] [Shepherd, Author, with Melloy and Grasz, Circuit Judges] 
   Civil case - Copyrights and Trademarks. The district court did not err in 
   denying plaintiff's motion to amend his complaint as his proposed 
   amendment of his count for tortious interference with contract was 
   preempted by the Copyright Act and his proposed amended trade dress and 
   fraud claims were futile; however, his proposed amended trademark claim 
   did state a trademark claim regarding the names of his installed art 
   works, and the district court erred in denying his motion to amend this 
   claim; remanded for further proceedings consistent with this opinion.
