Copyright: Rental Rights and Fylde

I have updated and transposed three pages from the old Kingsgate site:

Rental and Lending Rights

my case note on Case C-61/97 FDV v Laserdisken which I first wrote in 1998; and

my case note on Fylde Microsystems v Key Radio Systems which I wrote in 1999.

Laserdisken is an interesting case on the balancing of the right of free movement of goods and services with the right to protect industrial property. Fylde discusses the conditions for the subsistence of joint authorship. Two very important cases.
