Copyright Infringement

Ultimately forced by YG Entertainment (2NE1’s label) to stop promotion and any performance of the song and remove the video from YouTube.



“The estate points to a 2014 US supreme court ruling that Conan Doyle’s final 10 stories about Holmes, published between 1923 and 1927, remain in copyright in the US under the country’s 95-year rule. While the detective’s retirement is referenced in earlier works, the new suit says, Doyle’s later stories include “much more about Sherlock Holmes’ retirement and later years” – in particular, the detective’s efforts to solve one final case, how he has “come to love nature and dedicates himself to studying it”, and how he develops “a personal warmth and the capacity to express love for the first time”.
Parties involved are the estate of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle against Hollywood Miramax Studios.
No current outcome.
