Court: Mumbai

Decided on: Apr-22-2016

G.S. Patel, J. 1. By this Petition, filed under Articles 226 and 227 of the Constitution of India, the Petitioner seeks to challenge an order dated 8th January 2014 passed by the Debt Recovery Appellate Tribunal ( DRAT ) in Miscellaneous Appeal No. 58 of 2013.

XYZ FILMS LLC and Others Vs. UTV Motion Pictures / UTV Software Commun ...

Court: Mumbai

Decided on: Apr-21-2016

Oral Judgment: A. OVERVIEW 1. By consent, the Notice of Motion is taken up for hearing and final disposal. 2. Since the time this Suit was filed, the Plaintiffs case in this copyright infringement action has changed more than somewhat. This is partly inevitable: much has transpired since the date of the first application for ad-interim reliefs and today. When Dr. Saraf first made his application for ad-interim reliefs on behalf of the Plaintiffs, he said that suit is based on a copyright infringement claim in, as he put it, everything : his clients film, its underlying script, screenplay and storyline. As we shall see, this also included a slightly more particularized claim. I will return to that presently. 3. I was given a copy of the Defendants screenplay. I struggled through it. It was not shared with Dr. Saraf or his teasm. Much later, I was also given a two-disc DVD copy of the Defendants work, a film called Baaghi, scheduled for release on 29th April 2016. After some initial hesi...
