An attorney who arranged the copyright said that the Missionaries of Charity ordinarily avoid publicity, and so had not previously called attention to their copyright—which was actually granted on September 4, 2016: the date of Mother Teresa’s canonization. He said that took action to stop “unscrupulous and unfair usage of the design across the globe.”
