Supreme Court Leaves Global-Rights Ruling Intact
Supreme Court of the United States
— Oct 19, 2026
The Supreme Court declined to hear music labels’ challenge to a ruling allowing songwriter Cyril Vetter to reclaim worldwide rights to “Double Shot (Of My Baby’s Love),” leaving his win in place without deciding whether copyright-termination law applies to foreign copyrights. The ruling binds courts in the Fifth Circuit but not elsewhere, and labels warn that similar decisions could threaten international catalog revenue.
