Irish Legal News published an article on Thursday commenting on a brief of amicus curiae filed by attorney Marc Randazza on behalf of the Language Creation Society seeking to protect the Klingon language from copyright control. The brief was filed in Los Angeles federal court in the matter of Paramount Pictures v. Axanar Productions.
The Language Creation Society insists that Klingon is “an actual living language” that is therefore not subject to copyright law. It concludes: “Thus, Defendant’s motion to dismiss should be allowed with respect to Plaintiffs’ copyright claims over the Klingon language.”
