Judge Aileen Cannon could grant a request by Taylor Swift's lawyers to dismiss a copyright infringement case against her.
Florida Judge Aileen Cannon could dismiss a copyright lawsuit against Taylor Swift before Christmas because the plaintiff has been unable to serve the singer.Kimberly Marasco, a Florida artist, is seeking more than $7 million in damages, alleging that Swift's songs and music videos have 'creative elements' that copy Marasco's work without permission or credit.
Legal precedent has further defined good cause as 'factors outside a plaintiff's control, such as sudden illness, natural catastrophe or evasion of service of process.'The lawyers argued that Marasco 'failed to satisfy her burden to demonstrate good cause.''None of the excuses Plaintiff includes in her Response change this conclusion,' Blynn and Wright Morrone said.
