If you mean "who holds the US license to distribute an anime?," you'd have to ask its licensor. 

For example, Funimation has the US rights to Detective Conan/Case Closed.  I imagine you have to contact their legal department and ask them "when does the license on [insert name of anime here] expire?"

Hope that what was meant cus copyrights last the life of the creator + 70 years.
