Library of Congress Law; United States: Welsh Government Not Immune from Copyright Lawsuit for Using Dylan Thomas Photos in Tourism Ads
"On June 8, 2020, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit
affirmed a lower court decision that the Welsh government is not immune
under the Foreign Sovereign Immunities Act (FSIA) from a private lawsuit
alleging claims of copyright infringement because of the
commercial-activity exception to the FSIA. (Pablo Star Ltd. v. Welsh Government, No. 19-1262, slip op. (June 8, 2020).)"
