US Trademarks

The Supreme Court declined to grant certiorari to the copyright infringement case against the Google Book program, effectively allowing the earlier appeals court decision that the program was protected by Fair Use to stand. Google Books scanned and made available through search millions of copyrighted works. However, users don't have access to the whole work, but instead can only access the pages found in search results. The non-action will certainly strengthen fair uses defenses for search results.
