Courtroom Sketch Artist Sues Getty Images For Copyright Violations

http://www.mediapost.com/publications/article/203059/sketch-artist-sues-getty-images-for-copyright-vio.html#axzz2Wvz9U7Vh

She argues that Getty Images has a pattern of acquiring rights to image archives without first making sure that the sellers are allowed to transfer the images. “Upon information and belief, Getty Images has engaged in a pattern and practice of failing to use due diligence to confirm its copyrights in these collections and has acted in continuing reckless disregard of content creators rights in these collections,” she alleges.

Not surprising, and not the first court room sketch artist to sue either. "Getty Images has no comment"

Most questions have already been addressed in the forums, get yourself educated before making decisions.

Any advice is strictly that, and anything I may state is based on my opinions, and observations.
