Legal and Ethical Issues

Legal Issues

Copyright, Designs and Patents Act 1988

The law gives the creators of literary, dramatic, musical, artistic works, sound
recordings, broadcasts, films and typographical arrangement of published editions,
rights to control the ways in which their material may be used.

The rights cover: broadcast and public performance, copying, adapting, issuing,
renting and lending copies to the public.

This is a CIVIL law not a CRIMINAL law.

This means it is not a criminal offence to break the law, which could result in a fine or
jail sentence.

Instead, the person who owns the copyright has to sue the person they believe has
broken the law. The case is then heard in a civil court and if the person is found
guilty of breaking copyright law then they will have to pay damages to the owner of
the copyright. The amount of damages is set by the court.

 Ø Being pregnant or on maternity leave
Ø Disability
Ø Race including colour, nationality, ethnic or national origin

would result in a criminal trial which if found guilty could result in a fine or jail
sentence.

Intellectual property
What intellectual property is
Having the right type of intellectual property protection helps you to stop people
stealing or copying:

Copyright, patents, designs and trademarks are all types of intellectual property
protection. You get some types of protection automatically, others you have to apply

You own intellectual property if you:

Ø created it (and it meets the requirements for copyright, a patent or a design

If you believe anyone has stolen or copied your property you would sue them in civil
court.

For the purposes of this Act an article shall be deemed to be obscene if its effect or
(where the article comprises two or more distinct items) the effect of any one of its

APPLICATION:

Trespass
This is a civil law.
Trespass to land consists of any unjustifiable intrusion by a person upon the land in
possession of another.
Civil trespass is actionable in the courts.

Privacy
The introduction of the Human Rights Act 1998 incorporated into English law the
European Convention on Human Rights.

Article 8.1 of the ECHR provides an explicit right to respect for a private life:
Article 8 protects your right to respect for your private life, your family life, your home
and your correspondence (letters, telephone calls and emails, for example).

making sure they aren't intruded upon. These laws make sure people can't have
their information wrongly used without permission.

APPLICATION:

let me i wouldn't take pictures of them and if they did i took the pictures with their permission.
I had the models sign a model release form to get legal permission to use them in my
magazine

Defamation Act 2013

This Act reformed defamation law on issues of the right to freedom of expression
and the protection of reputation. It also comprised a response to perceptions that the
law as it stood was giving rise to libel tourism and other inappropriate claims.

The Act changed existing criteria for a successful claim, by requiring claimants to
show actual or probable serious harm (which, in the case of for-profit bodies, is
restricted to serious financial loss), before suing for defamation in England or Wales.
It also enhanced existing defences, by introducing a defence for website operators
hosting user-generated content (provided they comply with a procedure to enable
the complainant to resolve disputes directly with the author of the material concerned
or otherwise remove it), and introducing new statutory defences of truth, honest
opinion, and "publication on a matter of public interest“.

LIBEL
A written, published false statement that is damaging to a person's reputation.

SLANDER
Making a false spoken statement damaging to a person's reputation.

Defamation is a civil law and so you would need to sue someone who you believe
has damaged your reputation.

APPLICATION:
i won't set out to ruin the reputation of the models i used meaning i won't create rumours or
anything that could damage their reputation. If they feel that i am damaging their reputation
then it is up to the person to take me to court as it is a civil law.

Ethical Constraints
Rather than legal constraints, ethical issues are based on judgement. They are what
society considers as morally acceptable.

If something is seen as ethically wrong than it is first investigated to see if it is

breaking any laws. However, if it is not in violation of any of these laws then it comes
under ethical issues.

This means that no law has been broken, however the public may see it as offensive
or controversial. Many ethical concerns are raised by groups of specific people.
These groups may find the publication offensive, due to how the minority are
represented.
