« 1 « Great "Hopper" Pkgue Over New South Wales Judgment Refuses Copjrright To Advertising Agents' Copy Mr. Justice Astbury, After Four-Day Hearing. Definitely Decided in Favor of Advertiser Against Agency Which Claimed Ownership London. â€" A case of grreat import- ance to advertisers, advertis'ing agents, and publishers has just been heard in the chancery division of the; High Court of Justice- It concerned i the point, which apparently had not ' been raised before in British law, whether copyright in an advertise- ment prepared by an advertising agency remained the property of the agency or 'j»as the property of its. client, the advertiser. | The case in question, was complicat- ed and somewhat obscure, but the final decision of Mr. Justice Astbury, after a four-days' hearing, was dcfi- rftely ia favor ^f the client and against the agent, who had brought the action in the endeavor to obtain an injunction restraining ho*h the advertiser and one of the London newspapers from using an advertise- ment the agent claimed to have pre- pared. ' The agent had prepared an adver- tisement which his client had inserted in one of the London dailies and on which the agent received his usual commission. Subsequently, the client caused the advertisement to be in- serted in another paper, acting di- rectly and without the services of the agent. At this point the agent ap- plied for an injunction prohibiting the further use of the advertisement, on the ground that it was a literary work and as such came within the Copyright Act, under whicih title would remain in the author, who ap- pearod as plaintiff.

It further held that the agent's interest in the adver- tisement in question only existed so long as the advertiser continued to use the agent's services. As no con- tract existed by which the ads'ertiser was bound to continue to use these services, and no copyright as applp- ing to original literary work existed, the agent's application for an injunc- tion against both his former client and the newspaper must fail. It is assumed that the points of contention in the case can in future be clearly covered in the written agreement between agencies and cli ^ ents, but In view of the delicate per- The dec[sion held that no copy- sonal relations existing between such right existed so far as the agent was ! parties and of the fact that many copcerned, and that in employing the firms frequently change their agents, agent to prepare the advertisement, the prospect is not a very pleasant the advertiser and the agent had, in one for the agencies- Heavy Weather DUCHESS OF YORK PRESENTS SHAMROCKS TO GUARDS ON ST.
