For all the legally minded eagles out there- two court cases are making news.
Bayern Munich has threatened YouTube with legal action Thursday for showing privately shot footage of its games.......
.....and MasterCard and FIFA have gone to court over sponsorship of the World Cup tournament - a right enjoyed by them for 16 years but which has now been awarded to arch rival Visa .It says the move by FIFA was "a blatant and deceitful violation" of a written agreement.
In a further development a US appeals court has turned down an attempt from VISA to join the lawsuit.
