Copyright is a legal term used to describe the rights that creators have over their literary and artistic works. Works covered by copyright range from books, music, paintings, sculpture and films, to computer programs, databases, advertisements, maps and technical drawings.
Thanks for the clarification, Leslie. I was a bit unclear of the meaning of the original quote.
Glenroy; sorry it took me this long to respond to your comment on public domain, the defense attorney has offered this as their defence, quote; the patent has expired and the technology has been in public domain for some time now, unquote, in Trinidad & Tobago, when an item is registered, such as a patent, trademark, design, or tradename, copyright is automatic, and a copyright lasts the life of the author/creator, untill 70 years after his or her death, Anthony Williams is still with us, therefore; our 4ths & 5ths item could never be in public domain untill 2100, as it is a collective work which will last 100 years from the date of its creation...
"Places the technology in public domain" ?
Are you sure that is what you really mean ?
Is there any Co-IP documentation from the USPTO that are are able to please post here on WST also, thanks...
The High Court Judiciary is about due for break, we should have a ruling when they re-convene, every thing that happens in this case WILL be posted...
Condolences & Sympathies on the great loss. As the old people say, "it is what it is and everything is everyting"... Is it possible to post a copy of the Court's Ruling???
When the defendant failed to file a timely defense, they lost their case by default, we has since filed for judgment as specified by the High Court, judgment for the amount claimed, in the mean time the defense have file an application, trying to get an extention of time to file a defense from the Court, we are of the impression that they want to play their games? so let them ...We will get judgment, not for the whole amount claimed but, we will get judgment.
Andrea; it seems like we are the only one's who see's thing's as they are and not how we want's it to be, WE only know what we know, we at S.N.S.E. has lost one of the original 12 survivng devoted member and asst Ceo Mervyn Peters, a very dear friend to "Skip" we called Anthony Williams, on March 6th 2014, the very day the Defense time to flie a defence 28 days had expired, he always Quote; "we only know what we know", unquote.
