Cases

Arief International Inc v Celador International Ltd


Comment

This case will be of interest to those involved in the licensing of television programmes abroad. Where such a licensor wishes, in order to protect its brand, to have a direct relationship with those involved in the day-to-day production of the programme, as Celador did here, it will require a clause in more stringent terms than the one at issue in this case. The judge held that Arief's investment in pre-production and its maintenance of some involvement in day-to-day production was sufficient for the purposes of clause 15.
