No. 14-3099
Decision Date: 
June 29, 2015
Federal District: 
S.D. Ind., Indianapolis Div.
Holding: 
Dismissed and remanded
Ct. of Appeals lacked jurisdiction to consider plaintiff’s appeal of Dist. Ct. order that granted defendants’ motion for partial summary judgment in action alleging copyright infringement and seeking damages and injunctive relief that would prohibit use of certain photo. Dist. Ct. erroneously issued final judgment after ruling on defendants’ partial summary judgment motion, where issue of plaintiff’s injunctive relief was never adjudicated and remained pending.
