[QUOTE="bigtee, post: 768156, member: 238440"] She [i]has[/i] won her case! 1. She had been convicted [i]of a criminal offence[/i]; when the English court reviews the case, that conviction cannot stand. 2. She currently has "a criminal record"; that will now be removed 3. She was [b]not[/b] tried per se on the copyright issue that today's ruling referred to. 4. Today's ruling on the copyright issue is more applicable for [i]future[/i] screenings; moreover, it would probably first require the FAPL and their partners to make changes to the graphics of their broadcast 5. It is extremely unlikely that the FAPL will go against her on the "copyright" issue for the past screening that she has done; even if they were to do so, it is unlikely they would win. 6 Even if the FAPL pursues the copyright issue against anyone [i]in future[/i] it would be a [i]civil[/i] matter only leading to damages/injunction and not a criminal record against the defendant. PS the report that I read in The Guardian could have been written with greater accuracy and/as it can be misleading in the form that I read. [/QUOTE]
