The Judge encouraged the individual to withdraw the appeal to save costs, but she proceeded.
However, the individual appointed a lawyer who appealed the injunction decision.

Had she explained at the outset the full facts in a simple phone call or letter to the lawyers, any claim might, have been waived, and costs avoided. If the individual had complied with the initial letter the costs would have been minimal. This triggered the next step in the standard legal procedures, and the Court then made the initial injunction order.

This case could have been disposed of quickly at minimal cost, but unfortunately in response to the German lawyers’ first standard letter, the individual’s reply included the line (translation): “feel free to file a lawsuit if you insist on the demands”. In the case of an individual selling unauthorised items from a personal collection, if following receipt of a “cease and desist” letter the offending items are withdrawn, any costs would be minimal, or might be waived.Įric Clapton’s lawyers and management team (rather than Eric personally) identifies if an item offered for sale is illegal, and a declaration confirming that is signed, but thereafter Eric Clapton is not involved in any individual cases, and 95% of the cases are resolved before going to Court. It is not the intention to target individuals selling isolated CDs from their own collection, but rather the active bootleggers manufacturing unauthorised copies for sale. Over a period of more than 10 years the German lawyers appointed by Eric Clapton, and a significant number of other well-known artists and record companies, have successfully pursued thousands of bootleg cases under routine copyright procedures. Germany is one of several countries where sales of unauthorized and usually poor-quality illegal bootleg CDs are rife, which harms both the industry and purchasers of inferior product. Given the widespread and often misleading press reports about a recent bootleg case involving a woman in Germany, the following provides clarification to set the record straight. Evidently the apparatus surrounding Clapton took issue with how the story was framed, so now his management has issued a statement about the whole thing.

But he also made headlines last week when some of his lawyers successfully sued a woman in Germany for trying to sell a bootleg CD of a Clapton concert recorded in the ’80s. All comments, images and other embedded media have been removed.In recent times, Eric Clapton has spent most of his time complaining about COVID precautions and restrictions, whether that’s been writing would-be pandemic era protest music, or railing against vaccines in various ways.

I've neglected the videos section of the site over the last few months due to the flurry of Rush activity that's been happening since the Far Cry release.
