I quite agree with the Majority that the starting point in this case is necessarily the statute under which Silvers brought suit. Seeop. at 884. Section 501(b) of the 1976 Act provides, in pertinent part: 17 U.S.C. § 501(b)(1976). Turning to first principles, then, it is well-established that courts should interpret a statute according to its plain...
The Majority concludes that because the statute does not expressly grant standing to assignees of an accrued cause of action, such persons do not have standing. See op. at 885-86.

In reaching its conclusion, the Majority argues that this circuit should follow the Second Circuit's decision in Eden Toys, Inc. v. Florelee Undergarment Co., Inc., 697 F.2d 27 (2d Cir. 1982) to avoid the creation of a circuit split. See op. at 889-90. In my view, Eden Toys is inapposite. To avoid the creation of a circuit split, this circuit shoul...
For the foregoing reasons, I would affirm the district court's denial of Sony's motion to dismiss Silvers' complaint against Sony for the alleged infringement of the copyright of her script, "The Other Woman." I respectfully dissent.
