The Municipal Court of Nis, a town in southern Serbia, issued a three-month prison sentence and a nominal fine of approximately $US78 to an individual found to have infringed the Sony PlayStation copyright.
According to the court decision, the infringer sold pirated PlayStation games including Burnout: Revenge, Crash Tag Team Racing, FIFA Street 2, James Bond 007: NightFire, Medal of Honor: European Assault, Rainbow Six, Rayman Raving Rabbids, Resident Evil 4, Splinter Cell: Double Agent, and Spyro the Dragon.
The infringer also sold the following pirated films: A Little Princess, Aladdin, Cinderella, Happy Feet, Hoodwinked, Madagascar, Monster House, Pinocchio, Shrek, Shrek 2, the Simpsons, Sleeping Beauty, Speed Racer, Spiderman, Stuart Little 2, Thumbelina, Tokyo Godfathers, Tom and Jerry, Wallace and Gromit, The Adventures of Moby Dick, The Little Mermaid, The Mask of Zorro, and The Three Musketeers.
The pirated video games and films were sold for approximately EUR 1 per disc without permission of local authorized distributors.
The pirated items were confiscated and will be destroyed.
For the record, I have a personal interest in the case sinve I am a partner of JMB, Fa(c)tor & Co. which handles the Sony playstation trademarks in Israel.
