Sheeran's Copyright Infringement Lawsuit

The jury verdict doesn't set any legal precedent, but the way that Sheeran testified about chord progressions he used are common among songwriters and building blocks of music. The defense here certainly wrote a script on how to handle this sort of copyright infringement lawsuit. Despite all we've said about the defense here, there were two more lawsuits against Sheeran over the same song brought by investment banker David Pullman.
