Although, the Second Circuit had previously found that one party could give to the following a non-exclusive implied license that permits the latter to reproduce and distribute copyright protected work belonging to the prior.

Judge Swain appeared to the evidence and found that the tattooists supplied LeBron James and the other players with a non-exclusive signaled permit depending on the intent for its celebrity athletes to make the tattoos part of their identities; that comprises the reproduction of their images for all sorts of commercial purposes.
