The Indiana Lawyer Podcast with Maura Johnson

Taylor Swift recently filed three trademark applications with the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office, including two sound marks for her speaking voice and one visual mark from her Eras Tour. The filings have drawn widespread attention for what they signal about celebrity IP protection in the age of artificial intelligence.Caitlin Byczko, an intellectual property attorney at Barnes & Thornburg's Indianapolis office, breaks down what Swift's applications are actually requesting, what legal hurdles they face, and why the outcome could set a roadmap for how celebrities, brands, and even everyday people protect themselves from AI-generated deep fakes and unauthorized voice cloning.Biscoe explains the difference between copyright, right of publicity and trademark protection, why sound marks remain rare and legally untested, and how the likelihood-of-confusion standard will determine whether Swift's registrations can hold up against AI platforms. She also addresses the international limitations of U.S. trademark law, the role of platform-level enforcement, and what Tennessee's 2024 right-of-publicity update signals about where state and federal regulation may be headed.For more legal news from Indiana, visit theindianalawyer.com, where you can subscribe to the daily newsletter and browse past podcast episodes.

Listening, adaptability and quick thinking aren’t typically taught in law school, but two professionals argue they should be. They say improv training can sharpen courtroom performance, client negotiations and overall well-being. Mike Marbach, founder of Crossroads Comedy in Indianapolis, and Michael Murphy, a clinical law professor at Ohio State University’s Moritz College of Law, created a continuing legal education program built on improv exercises. The course links each exercise to legal practice, covering active listening, the “yes, and” approach to negotiation, emotional authenticity in court and projecting expertise on short notice.They also address a common hurdle for attorneys: dropping a rigid professional persona to fully engage in learning. Murphy, a former trial lawyer and in-house counsel, says improv-based CLEs outperform traditional lecture formats and help lawyers stay present and recover when proceedings go off track.

The Trump administration's AI legislative framework sets the stage for a federal showdown over who controls artificial intelligence regulation in the United States. Brian McGinnis, a partner at Barnes & Thornburg and co-chair of the firm's data security and privacy law and artificial intelligence practices, breaks down the six pillars of the White House blueprint and what Congress would need to do to turn those priorities into law.McGinnis explains the core tension at the heart of the debate: Whether Washington should set a national standard that preempts state laws, or whether states like Colorado, California, and Texas should retain the authority to impose stricter requirements on AI developers. He draws a direct parallel to the long-running fight over federal privacy legislation, warning that without congressional action, companies face a growing patchwork of conflicting state rules.The conversation also covers the administration's directive to the Department of Justice to push back against state regulators, the relevance of the EU AI Act as a comparative model, and why Colorado's June enforcement deadline is creating immediate pressure for businesses trying to determine what compliance even looks like. McGinnis notes that companies are increasingly turning to frameworks like the NIST AI Risk Management Framework as stand-ins for legislation that does not yet exist.

Law firms are now locking in first-year law students for summer positions before they have finished a single full semester. David Durm, a partner at Barnes & Thornburg in Indianapolis, breaks down the forces reshaping law student recruiting and what students must do to stand out.Durm, who has coordinated law student recruiting for more than 25 years, explains how the traditional two-L summer associate model has shifted dramatically, with some Am Law 100 firms now extending offers to one-L students in January for summer classes more than a year away. He also addresses how artificial intelligence is influencing hiring decisions, why Indianapolis remains a strong recruiting market despite a statewide lawyer shortage and what Barnes & Thornburg looks for beyond grades when evaluating candidates.
