William New, Intellectual Property Watch; US Supreme Court Rules On Golan v. Holder, Key Public Domain Case:
"The United States Supreme Court today ruled on one of the top intellectual property legal cases expected this year. The case questioned whether the US Congress acted constitutionally when it restored copyright to millions of foreign works that had been in the public domain in the US. And it affirmed Congress’ actions, allowing the US to avoid questions of compliance with its international obligations. 
The 18 January decision is here [pdf]. The justices ruled 6 to 2 in favour."
