SUPREME COURT UPHOLDS COPYRIGHT TERM EXTENSION The Supreme Court ruled today in Eldred v. Ashcroft, a constitutional challenge to the 20-year extension of copyright term in the Sonny Bono Copyright Term Extension Act. In an opinion by Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, the Court concluded that Congress's extension of the terms of existing copyrights did not exceed Congress's power under the Copyright Clause and did not violate the First Amendment. Justices Stevens and Breyer dissented.
