Supreme Court Grants Certiorari, February 19, 2002.

This is a critical case for the First and Tenth Amendments. At issue is
whether the "Sonny Bono" Act which extends copyrights infringes on the
rights of the people to have materials pass into the public domain and
the constitutional restriction of copyrights to "limited Times to
Authors and Inventors" and not to their estates or assigns.
