Korn's law review article, "Issues
Facing Legal Practitioners in Measuring Substantiality of Contemporary
Musical Expression," was published in the Spring
2007 issue of the John Marshall Law School Review of Intellectual
Property Law. The article highlights some of the legal issues
facing modern composers of jazz, avant-garde, hip-hop, electronica
and world music, and the current split among the U.S. Circuit
Courts in how to measure the substantiality of those works.
