In this episode, host Bob Simon welcomes Jonathan A. Abrams, the writer behind Juror No. 2, the Clint Eastwood-directed thriller making waves in Hollywood. They dive into the art of storytelling in law and film, the moral dilemmas of jury duty, and how a judge’s request for help with a closing argument led to the creation of a major Warner Bros. film.
Joining the conversation is Brian J. Philpott, a partner at Ferguson Case Orr Paterson, specializing in intellectual property law. Brian shares insights on patent litigation, trademark enforcement, copyright issues, and how legal battles shape industries like tech, fashion, and entertainment.
Along the way, they swap wild law school memories, discuss accurate legal depictions in media, and review a fine selection of bottles. Don’t miss this blend of law, storytelling, intellectual property, and bourbon!
