OPINION
BATCHELDER, Circuit Judge.
Louis Kohus (“Kohus”) appeals the district court’s grant of summary judgment in favor of defendants John Mariol, James Mariol, and JVM Innovation & Design (“Defendants”), on Kohus’s claims for copyright infringement. Kohus argues that the district court applied the wrong legal standard, and that the court erred by refusing to consider expert testimony. Having concluded that the Sixth Circuit does not have a settled legal standard in this area, we set out a standard below and remand so the district court may apply that standard.
