Appeals court says that federal court was right in Napster's case

Written by Petteri Pyyny @ 25 Mar 2002 14:11

In a decision which sounds pretty non-related to a current situation, U.S. appeals court decided that Judge Marilyn Patel's decision in last summer to keep Napster offline until it can filter out all copyright protected material from its system, was indeed correct one.
Napster appealed the decision and got an emergency stay to the decision from appeals court in July, but never resumed its operations anyway and has been developing its legal service after that.
