This case returns to us on remand from the Supreme Court of the United States, which reversed our prior decision by holding that the “first sale” doctrine, see 17 U.S.C. § 109(a), provides a defense against a copyright infringement claim based on unauthorized resale “where, as here, copies are manufactured abroad with the permission of the copyright owner.” Kirt-saeng v. John Wiley & Sons, Inc., — U.S. -, 133 S.Ct. 1351, 1358, 185 L.Ed.2d 392 (2013). We assume the parties’ familiarity with the facts and procedural history of this case.

Based on the Supreme Court’s holding, we have nothing left to decide. A jury found defendant-appellant Supap Kirt-saeng liable of copyright infringement *1143 based on his importation and resale of copyrighted works manufactured abroad. 1 Kirtsaeng’s liability was premised on the inapplicability of the first sale doctrine to copyrighted works manufactured abroad, even when (as here) the copyrighted works were manufactured and initially sold in accordance with the copyright laws of the United States. 2 The United States District Court for the Southern District of New York (Donald C. Pogue, Judge of the United States Court of International Trade, sitting by designation) denied Kirt-saeng’s motion to instruct the jury regarding the applicability of the first sale defense.

In light of the Supreme Court’s holding that the first sale doctrine does apply to such works, thus providing Kirtsaeng with a valid defense to copyright infringement, the District Court’s judgment is REVERSED, and the cause is REMANDED for such further proceedings as may be appropriate prior to entry of final judgment.
