Abstract

The article discusses a court case, Media CAT Ltd. v. A and others, regarding a series of requests for judgment and the substance of the allegations. The court noticed that Media CAT Ltd.'s claim had unusual features such as the uncertainty of the right to be a claimant and claiming that allowing others to infringe was prohibited under s16 and 17 of the Copyright Designs and Patents Act 1988 (CDPA). The judge ruled that the notices offer unwarranted collateral advantages to the copyright owner.
