- CACV61/2007
The court held that the SFAs effected comprehensive assignments of all rights worldwide in the listed films including underlying works and adaptation rights, and that the executed licence’s own definitions confined the rights granted to the cinematographic films as defined in that licence; therefore the licence did not grant the first defendant the underlying rights and the declarations in favour of the plaintiffs were correct.
