Recent Developments​

¶ Charles Cronin, who heads this project, contributed to a round-table discussion on plagiarism and copyright infringement recently published in Salon.com. 

¶​ Robert J.S. Cason and Daniel Mullenseifen, School of Law and Department of Psychology, respectively, at the University ​of London contributed their collection of primary source materials pertaining to music copyright infringement actions in the UK, Canada, and Australia.  This much-appreciated addition will be the basis for the project's first foray beyond the realm of US case law.  Paul Sipio, musician and law student at Penn, is working with these materials that we hope to make available within the first few months of 2012.          

Overview

The purpose of this project is to make universally available information about music copyright infringement cases from the mid-nineteenth centur​y forward.  There is a thumbnail description of each area of the project's resources on the Purpose page.
