Sir Bonar Neville-K and Carlo Daffara.
It is perhaps
worth pointing out that Sir Bonar Neville-Kingdom is a satirical caricature of a
senior UK civil servant. The scary bit is he's so plausible.

If Lawyers Sell Legal Expertise
to Clients, Who Owns the Resulting Product?
White and Elan (as well as
any class of plaintiff's) do not enjoy exclusive rights of distribution and
copying on court filings. Their
complaint (PDF) asking for an injunction describes their irreparable harm as
not having control of copying, redistribution and the right to receive revenue
(copying and distribution).
This appears an attempt to inflate the economic
value of copyrights when at issue is that West or Lexis Nexis is actually
selling convenience.

So, by UMG's own logic, if I purchase a digital download of music by a UMG
signed artist, it's a sale, and therefore I can do whatever the heck I want with
the download, with no restrictions, under the First Sale doctrine.

This could be another case where USPTO
has issued a patent to Apple for something already patented because the
lawyer
speak made it impossible to tell what it was about. What is RE 43,318? My
Google-fu has turned
up only a nice example of how a patent should be written
for a practical device with descriptions and diagrams of
the hardware and
software. US Patent 2943318, filed August 1942, issued June 1960. The delay was
probably
caused by the device being a pulse radar jammer.[ Reply to This | Parent | # ]
