, the letter warns of the possible repercussions, should the Institute approve restatements to 18 sections of copyright law. In effect, the letter states, the American Law Institute's new interpretations could be cited as authority for deciding case law disputes instead of federal rules and regulations that are already in place.
"Throughout its almost 100 years of existence, the ALI has never chosen to draft a Restatement of an area of the law that is almost exclusively federal statutory law -- until now," the letter reads. "We are deeply concerned by the ALI's current Copyright Restatement Project.
"Since copyright law is predominantly federal law, codified in Title 17, it would be Congress and not the states that would take action in this case," the letter states.
