  1. The limits of copyright law

    Supap Kirtsaeng was a Thai student in the United States who helped finance his education (and then some) by reselling textbooks that family members bought for a low price in Thailand. Textbook publisher John Wiley &amp; Sons sued Kirtsaeng for copyright infringement in 2008, citing a federal <a href="http://lat.ms/16HAkeU">ban on importing</a> copyrighted goods without the copyright holder's permission. Lower courts agreed with Wiley, opining that the <a href="http://lat.ms/XNBmBJ">"first sale" doctrine</a> &mdash; a buyer's right to sell, lend, rent or give away a lawfully purchased copy of a copyrighted work &mdash; did not apply to foreign-made products even if they'd been manufactured under contract with the copyright holder.
