Abstract

This chapter deals with software copyright infringement litigations. The chapter commences with a mention of the moral and legal rights of individuals, organizations, and institutions to protect their property rights to software and also to seek remedial measures in case of violation of their rights. It then deals with various aspects and elements of evidence along with the procedure and ethics of the collection of evidence, moving further on into the theoretical aspect of the idea-expression dichotomy and its practical implication on the evidential elements, related complications, etc. The chapter then goes on to explain the importance of the selection of forensic test procedures and the legally decisive elements involved in these test procedures in the context of the idea-expression dichotomy of various copyright laws. It concludes by explaining the complications in the forensic reporting.
