- jcranmer 6y agoAll of the appeals courts that heard appeals in that situation agreed that animals could not hold copyright, and there are no appeals still pending since then. That's pretty settled--there's no courts with binding precedent arguing for animals being able to hold copyright. (Appeals courts can still settle case law, even if SCOTUS doesn't hear the case. There are several precedents that are set by appeals courts and not SCOTUS itself.)
