Full question:
Need the definition of copyright. If a person submitted a logo for a club's correspondence and later leaves or resigns from the club, can he demand that we can not use that logo he created, on future correspondance. The club has been using the logo for approximately 2 years.

- State: California
Answer:
The outcome depends on who owns the copyright for the logo. If the logo was created as a 'work for hire' or given as a gift, the creator may not have the right to stop its use. However, if the individual retains copyright but allowed the club to use the logo with certain conditions, those terms would dictate whether the club can continue using it.
