Can Someone Use My Picture Without My Permission?
Public law librarians hear this question quite frequently and while we don’t really want to make our responses more complicated than is necessary, sometimes questions like these can be about as difficult to answer as you can imagine, especially in the abstract (such as on a blog rather than with a live person in the law library or on the telephone).
In part this is because, as with most questions in life and law, answers depend on context and specific facts unique to the person asking the question.
