Bobby took a number of wedding photos at Jill's wedding. He was paid as the photographer. On all of the photographs, he appropriately noted in the bottom, right-hand corner the necessary information, which showed that he was claiming copyright protection. Jill came to see Bobby three years after the initial photographs were taken, and she requested that he grant her permission to run off as many copies as she wanted at the local photo shop from the pictures that she initially purchased. The photo shop had refused to reproduce the photographs without Bobby's permission. When Bobby refused to give Jill permission to make copies, Jill started a heated argument. She told Bobby that photographs are not entitled to copyright protection. She also told him that even if he was correct that there was some copyright protection, she was engaged in fair use, and that, in any event, damages for copyright infringement are unavailable. Which of the following is correct regarding Jill's claim that damages for copyright infringement are unavailable?

Damages are available, but a copyrighted work must be registered in order for the creator to recover damages from infringement.

It is not necessary that a copyrighted work be registered in order for the creator to obtain damages.

Damages for copyright infringement are only available if two businesses are involved—not in disputes involving an individual such as Jill.

Some material that is subject to copyright must be registered before its creator may recover damages for infringement, but that is not true for photographs.

She is correct that damages are unavailable in copyright infringement actions because only injunctive relief is available.

You are chairman of the board of a successful technology firm. there is a nominal federal corporate tax rate of 35 percent, yet the effective tax rate of the typical corporation is about 12.6%. your firm has been clever with use of transfer pricing and keeping money abroad and has barely paid any taxes over the last 5 years; during this same time period, profits were $28 billion. one member of the board feels that it is un-american to use various accounting strategies in order to avoid paying taxes. others feel that these are legal loopholes and corporations have a fiduciary responsibility to minimize taxes. one board member quoted what the ceo of exxon once said: “i’m not a u.s. company and i don’t make decisions based on what’s good for the u.s.” what are the alternatives? what are your recommendations? why do you recommend this course of action?
