Re: use, plus Disney mystery

[Bob Cole] "By corporate practice they're required to, yes.

But "by law?" Nah. They could have (a) pretended not to know about it; (b) given a license. "


No, by law they are required to. Part of maintaining a copyright and trademark on a product is the defend it against any known attempts to use them without permission. Once Disney was notified of these characters in the Daycare, they had to act.

The license fees would have to be the same fee structure as any other commercial enterprise. Disney did give the daycare the option to purchase a license, but of course it was too high for them to pay.

"Pretending not to know" is what schoolchildren do, not lawyers and professionals in business.

So yes, "by law."
