Copyright Lawsuit Over Blackbeard's Shipwreck Footage Moves Forward

U.S. District Court Judge Terrence Boyle ruled Aug. 30 that a Fayetteville videographer who has alleged repeated copyright infringements over the use of his documentary footage related to the Queen Anne’s Revenge (QAR) may proceed with claims against the N.C. Department of Natural and Cultural Resources (NCDNCR). The lengthy numerous court battles over the use of underwater footage, taken by Rick Allen of Nautilus Productions of Fayetteville, of expeditions to the site of Blackbeard’s shipwreck in Beaufort Inlet, began in 2013. He claimed that NCDNCR was illegally using his underwater footage and images without permission. https://www.carolinacoastonline.com/...d0f674234.html

It's quite an achievement in itself to last this long against a government funded legal team. This achievement alone is pretty special for all that I can tell.
