An amateur artist who designed the original logo used by the Baltimore Ravens won a partial victory Thursday when a federal appeals court ruled the commercial use of game and highlight films from the Ravens’ first three seasons violates his copyright. The Ravens could appeal the Fourth Circuit’s majority decision to the full appeals court or the U.S. Supreme Court.
