: Recording Industry vs The PeopleJury instructions in Capitol Records v. Thomas-Rasset now available online
By Ty Rogers and Ray Beckerman
We now have a copy of the jury instructions in Capitol Records v. Thomas-Rasset.
[Ed. note. The instructions do not define or explain what a distribution is. I.e. they do not instruct the jury that plaintiffs have to prove a dissemination of copies to the public, or that there must have been a sale or other transfer of ownership, or a lease, rental, or lending. In view of how we got to this point, I'm a bit surprised at that. -R.B.]
