Court Denies AFP/Getty Bid to Set Aside Morel Copyright Verdict
1 12 2014The dust is settling on AFP v. Morel, and the wreckage that emerges isn’t pretty.
Following trial, a jury awarded Morel $1,503,889.77 in actual and statutory damages for infringement. The jury also found that defendants violated Morel’s rights under the DMCA (by distributing false copyright management information or modifying/removing copyright management information) and awarded an additional $20,000 for these violations.
Defendants moved to set aside or reduce the verdict. The court largely denies the motion.
