TY - GEN T1 - The denial of copyright protection on public policy grounds / AU - Sims, Alexandra., VL - 2008, Vol. 30, No. 5, pages 189-198 CN - K5 LA - eng N1 - The courts have denied copyright protection to fraudulent, immoral or obscene works because it offended public policy to protect such works.
