WARNING
Fraudulent and misleading actions in relation to the use of work of
Muafangejo in copyright protection:
The Trust has discovered certain parties have been acting fraudulently
in relation to Muafangejo's copyright and in breach of copyright legislation
worldwide. The Trust has the right under International and National Laws
to demand delivery up, destruction and damages on notice and destruction
of any such items which contain reproductions in the hands of third parties
and will do so. The Trust has enforced its rights for delivery up, destruction
and damages against all parties who have on display, or in the public
domain any works by Muafangejo to which a liscence has not been officially
granted by the Trust. If you are reproducing or selling any article which
contains reproductions of works by Muafangejo kindly ensure that they
have an official liscence from the trust to be so published. Any representation
of authority other than ourselves is fraudulent.
It should be noted by third parties that the display of works or reproduction
or purchase of books or any material containing in any way works or details
of Muafangejo not liscenced by the Trust constitutes inter alia an act
of copyright infringement, possible criminal conduct and leaves the third
party open to legal action including delivery up and destruction of the
offending work, apologies to the same level as the offending publication
and damages both direct and consequential. Consideration of persuit of
legal action is always dependent on the nature of the infringement, the
attempts by innocent third parties to have attempted to contact the Trust,
bona fides, and the acts taken by them to rectify the infringement and
make good the damage. As time passes it is clear the name and address
of the John Muafangejo Trust and its web site is becoming more internationally
known and the bona fides of innocent third parties becomes more difficult
to establish.
For more information on the copyright or to enquire about the use of
John Muafangejo's works you should get in touch with Orde Levinson, copyright
consultant to the Trust: details are in the contacts
section.
