Dissent

CAMPBELL, aka SKYYWALKER, et al. v. ACUFF ROSE MUSIC, INC.

Dissent – if the case wasn’t decided 9-0, what did the justices who ruled against the majority think about their case?

The Courts ruling was a unanimous decision. Both Justice Kennedy and Justice Souter from the Supreme Court agreed with one another that the song was a parody and it claimed as Fair Use. The case was also ruled reversed and remand. It was sent back for the District Courts to rule on the case. The source found on page 56 can be found here.
