Remember the Teller v. Dogge lawsuit? Magician Teller filed a lawsuit against Gerard Dogge (real name Bakardy) for infringing the copyright of Teller's famous illusion, Shadows. A number of attorneys and magicians have commented on the suit on blogs. Last year, Chris Jones published an discussion of the lawsuit for Esquire.
Now Jennifer J. Hagan and William Samuels are publishing "Teller v. Dogge": When Two Magicians Duel Over the Secret to an Iconic Illusion, They Conjure a Copyright Infringement Lawsuit," in the Spring 2013 issue of "New Matter Magazine," the magazine of the IP Section of the California State Bar Association. It's an interesting piece. Stay tuned.
My name is Gerard Dogge,defending myself in this lawsuit, since I'm not a lawyer I'm not able to log in to read the latest article. As you say It's an interesting piece, of course, I would like to stay 'tuned'. Can you please forward this article to me. (gerard-bakardy@hotmail.com) THANKS.
