CJEU Delivers Decision on Jurisdiction for Online Copyright Infringements

摘要

In a judgment handed down on January 22, 2015, the Court of Justice of the European Union has held that the court of a member state in which an allegedly infringing copyright work is merely accessible online does have jurisdiction to hear an infringement action (Pez He-jduk v. EnergieAgentur.NRW GmbH (Case C-441/13)).
