Copyright Litigation

Copyrights cover the form or manner in which ideas and information are expressed.   There are many different types of expression covered by copyright and many statutory defenses to copyright infringement that may be raised, such as fair use. 

Attorneys in HBD’s Patent and Technology group have significant experience in copyright litigation, including serving as lead counsel for Sharman Networks Limited, the owners of Kazaa, a large music download website, in its defense of what was then the largest copyright infringement suit in the world.
