Stormy Dispute: Copyright Infringement Case In Lafayette, Indiana

लाफायेट, इंडियाना - वादी Aaron Rigsby, a professional videographer, has brought suit against Defendant John W. Darnell, Inc. d/b/a All Seasons Roofing कथित तौर पर कॉपीराइट का उल्लंघन नीचे Copyright Act, 17 U.S.C §101 et seq.

According to the complaint, Aaron Rigsby recorded and produced a video capturing the aftermath of a tornado in Sullivan, Indiana. Rigsby then secured copyright registrations for his work, establishing his exclusive rights to its use and distribution.

Rigsby now alleges that All Seasons Roofing, operating under the account “@All Seasons Roofing and Restoration” on Facebook, unlawfully copied and displayed his video on their platform without obtaining the necessary permissions or licenses. This unauthorized use, as Rigsby contends, constitutes a violation of his exclusive rights as a copyright holder under 17 U.S.C. §106.

Under the Copyright Act, individuals possess the exclusive right to reproduce, distribute, and publicly display their copyrighted works. If proven, the alleged actions of All Seasons Roofing would amount to infringement, breaching Rigsby’s statutory rights.

In response to the alleged infringement, Rigsby seeks प्रतिकार through the legal system. He pursues damages, including disgorgement of profits derived from the alleged infringement, as well as वैधानिक क्षति and attorney’s fees as provided by law. Additionally, Rigsby requests निषेधाज्ञा relief to prevent further unauthorized use of his works by the defendant.
