Nigeria Court Confirms the Legal Import of a Co-Owner’s Assignment of Copyright in a Composite Work
The Federal High Court has ruled in favour of Netflix Inc. and Starco TV3 Limited, affirming that a copyright license granted by one co-owner is binding on all co-owners. This decision simplifies the licensing process for streaming platforms and content creators.
Congratulations to our Litigation Team, led by Soibi Ovia and supported by Sunday Elisha Maji, Yejide Ogunpitan, and Sonia Akinbiyi, for this significant win.
