“Copy That!”: What is plagiarism in the practice of law?
My favorite plagiarism/copyright case is Gaste v. Kaiserman, 863 F.2d 1061 (1988). It involves the song “Feelings” by Morris Albert (real name Morris Kaiserman), a song that was ranked No. 7 on Rolling Stone’s readers poll of the 10 Worst Songs of the 1970s.
