> Fairey sued for a declaratory judgment that his poster was a fair use of the photograph. The parties settled out of court in January 2011. In February 2012, Fairey pleaded guilty to destroying and fabricating evidence showing that he had used the photograph; in September, he was sentenced to two years of probation, 300 hours of community service, and a fine of $25,000.

Very similar, and more unfortunate for fairey than tfa. He is a graffiti artist, so there is that in regards to illegal art. I've seen him speak to Warhol's archetype before, and he resented the copycat nature of it pretty clearly. I think that is a bit ironic.
