Wilson Sonsini Secures Victory for Pinterest in Copyright Litigation
On May 3, 2022, Judge Haywood S. Gilliam, Jr. of the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California granted summary judgment to Wilson Sonsini client Pinterest on a copyright-infringement claim that challenged core aspects of Pinterest’s online service. This hard-fought case dates back to 2019, when plaintiff Harold Davis sued Pinterest, alleging that the company’s use of his copyrighted photographs in the routine operation of its service constituted both contributory and direct copyright infringement. Through early motion practice, Pinterest secured the dismissal of the plaintiff’s contributory-infringement claim, leaving only the direct-infringement claim.
