Goods
Goods, Computer programs are the product of an intellectual process, but once implanted in a medium they are widely distributed to computer owners. An analogy can be drawn to a compact-disc recording of an orchestral rendition. The music is produced by the artistry of musicians and in itself is not a 'good', but when transferred to a laser-readable disc it becomes a readily merchant-able commodity. Similarly, when a professor deliv-ers a lecture, it is not a good, but, when transcribed as a book, it becomes a good. That a computer program may be copyrightable as intellectual property does not alter the fact that once in the form of a floppy disc or other medium, the program is tangible, moveable and available in the marketplace. The fact that some programs may be tailored for specific purposes need not alter their status as 'goods' because the Code definition includes 'specially manufactured goods', Advent Systems Ltd. v. Unisys Corpn., 925 F. 2d 670 3dCir 1991. Associated Cement Compa...
Royalty
Royalty, a payment reserved by the grantor of a patent, lease of a mine or similar right, and payable proportionately to the use made of the right by the grantee. It is usually a payment of money, but may be a payment in kind, that is, of part of the produce of the exercise of the right, Jowitt's Dictionary of English Law, 2nd End., p. 1595.In the legal world, is known as the equivalent or translation of jura 'regalia' or 'jura regia'. Royal rights and prerogatives of a sovereign are covered thereunder. In its secondary sense, the word 'royalty' would signify, as in mining leases, that part of the reddendum, variable thought, payable in cash or kind, for rights and privileges obtained, Inderjeet Singh Sial v. Karam Chand Thapar, (1995) 6 SCC 166.Royalty, is not a tax. Simply because the royalty is levied by reference to the quantity of the minerals produced and the impugned cess too is quantified by taking into consideration the same quantity of the mineral produced, the latter does no...
Ejusdem generis
Ejusdem generis (of the same kind or nature).of the same kind or nature, Black's Law Dictionary, 7th Edn., p. 535.This term is chiefly used in cases where general words have a meaning attributed to them less comprehensive than they would otherwise bear, by reason of particular words preceding them: e.g., the (English) Sunday Observance Act, 1677 (29 Car. 2, c. 7), enacts that no tradesman, artificer, workman, labourer, 'or other person whatsoever,' shall follow his ordinary calling on Sunday; here [see Sandiman v. Breach, (1827) 7 B&C 96] the word 'person' is confined to those of callings of the same kind as those specified by the preceding words, so as not to include a farmer. The ejusdem generis rule, as it is called, is one of the rules of construction applied by the Court in construing documents of all kinds, whether statutes, deeds, wills, mercantile docu-ments, or others. For a discussion of the rule, see Tillmanns & Co. v. S.S. Knutsford, Ltd., (1908) 2 KB 385, affirmed, (1908) ...
