First Circuit Reversal Under Architectural Works Copyright Protection Act

The First Circuit has reversed summary judgment for the Defendant in T-Peg, Inc. v. Vermont Timber Works, Inc. I will leave comments when I have had a chance to read the entire opinion. It seems to address some interesting issues, including the scope of protection for architectural works and the admissability of expert testimony in determining substantial similarity. Bill Patry has recently discussed this section of the Copyright Act.
