Question on sample question (#14-- regarding copyright registration)
Question 14 asks which answer would be Cape Cod's best defense against Baldwin's copyright infringement charges, and the answer is that it was fair use (transformative).
Answer D says "noninfringement-- Baldwin does not have a copyright."
It makes sense that CC can't say it's noninfringement, because it was actually infringement.
But how could Baldwain bring this claim if it has not yet registered its copyright? Wouldn't Cape Cod's defense be that Baldwin cannot yet bring a claim of any sort until it registers?
Thanks!
