Structured Asset Sales, Llc V. Sheeran Et Al

Structured Asset Sales, LLC (SAS) has filed a lawsuit for copyright infringement against Ed Sheeran and several music companies, including Sony/ATV Music Publishing and Atlantic Recording Corporation. The lawsuit alleges that the defendants copied and exploited the musical composition of the song "Let's Get It On" without authorization or credit. Additionally, SAS claims that Sony/ATV Music Publishing and Stone Diamond Music Corp. breached their contract, duty of good faith, and duty of trust by failing to file applications for protection of the composition and not requiring the parties responsible for the creation, recording, and distribution of "Thinking Out Loud" to enter into a license with the owners of the "Let's Get It On" musical composition. SAS is seeking damages for the defendants' actions, including unauthorized reproduction, distribution, and public performance of the infringing composition in "Thinking Out Loud."

United States of America v. Robert Hunter Biden

Summary: Hunter Biden is currently embroiled in a lawsuit, accused of purchasing a Colt Cobra revolver in October 2018 while allegedly using illegal substances. Despite denying drug use on the necessary paperwork, if found guilty, he could face a maximum of 25 years in prison along with substantial fines. Biden's defense team contends that the charges are politically driven, asserting that Biden's temporary possession of an unloaded firearm did not constitute a public safety risk. They intend to contest the charges, leveraging an agreement with the prosecution, recent federal court decisions, and potential Second Amendment defenses. This case could potentially ignite wider discussions about Second Amendment rights, especially as the Supreme Court is poised to deliberate on a related issue concerning gun ownership for individuals subject to domestic violence restraining orders. Opinions are divided among political and legislative figures, with some speculating that advocates of the Second Amendment might oppose the law that prohibits gun ownership for drug users.
