I know but that is how it is. Although the court didn't deny that the monkey was the photographer they denied his right to the image. I guess it's like Paul said, the monkey took the picture but he couldn't take picture out of the camera and he didn't own the camera.
I almost always tripped the shutter for every money maker shot in studios where I was NOT the head photographer on the scene. Once the polaroids (also my job) were approved by the AD, it was my job as underling to run the film holders thru the camera and stick a fork in it.
Its typical that the head photographer is NOT the head shutter clicker. The monkey is just a low paid assistant.
