“European” Originality in Copyright Law in the English Case of THJ Systems Ltd. v. Sheridan
摘要
The recent Court of Appeal case THJ Systems v. Sheridan (THJ Systems Ltd. v. Sheridan [2023] EWCA Civ 1354, [2024] E.C.D.R. 4, CA, 20 November 2023) is of great interest because it confirms the test for originality in copyright law in the UK after Brexit. The result of this decision is not too surprising, but the judicial clarification is nevertheless welcomed.
