Eighth Circuit Upholds Denial Of Deepfake Injunction
|
7.3
The Eighth Circuit ruled in Kohls v. Ellison, upholding a district court's denial of preliminary injunctions challenging Minnesota's May 2023 deep-fake law. The court held that parody videos labeled as such are not 'deep fakes' for Article III standing, while legislator Franson had standing but was denied preliminary relief due to an unexplained sixteen-month delay; merits remain for further proceedings.
Scoring Rationale
Federal appellate ruling clarifies standing and enforcement risks for deepfake content, limited by single-state statute and preliminary-relief posture.
