Hintergrund

Anguilla was colonized by English settlers from Saint Kitts in the 17th century. In 1967 Britain granted full internal autonomy to Saint Christopher-Nevis-Anguilla. In 1980, Anguilla seceded from St. Kitts und Nevis and become a separate British Crown colony. Anguilla is now a British Overseas Territory, with legislative power vested in both the government and the House of Assembly.

Hintergrund

The English Virginia Company settled Bermuda in 1609 through the wreck of the Sea Venture. In 1612, the company's Royal Charter was altered to officially include Bermuda within its geographic boundaries and settlers were despatched to the archipelago to join the three survivors remaining from the Sea Venture. Planning also began for an under-company, the Somers Isles Company, that administered Bermuda from 1615 to 1684, when the Crown revoked the company's Royal Charter and took over direct administration of the colony. Under the company, an elected legislature had been introduced in 1620 and an appointed Council, under a company appointed (Lieutenant-)Governor. The Crown left this system of local governance in place. Within the Empire, Bermuda was administratively part of British North America. Following the independence of the thirteen colonies that became the United States of America, Bermuda became an Imperial fortress, the most important British naval and military base in the Western Hemisphere, with the British Government taking more interest in its governance, though it generally respected the established delegation of competencies to the local Government. In 1981, British colonies, including Bermuda, were re-styled British Dependent Territories, a designation that caused much ire amongst colonials. Since 2002, this has been modified to British Overseas Territories. Bermuda is internally self-governing, and its government enacts local laws.

As of 2019, Bermuda Laws Online showed that the relevant law was the Copyright and Designs Act 2004. The act is based on the Copyright Act 1956 of the United Kingdom as extended to Bermuda by the Copyright (Bermuda) Order 1962.^{[2004 Sec.3(1)]}

Allgemeines

Under the Copyright and Designs Act 2004,

• The following provisions have effect with respect to the duration of copyright in a literary, dramatic, musical or artistic work.^{[2004 Sec. 21(1)]}
  • Copyright expires at the end of the period of 70 years from the end of the calendar year in which the author dies, subject as follows.^{[2004 Sec. 21(2)]}
  • If the work is of unknown authorship, copyright expires at the end of the period of 70 years from the end of the calendar year in which the work was made; or if during that period the work is made available to the public, at the end of the period of 70 years from the end of the calendar year in which it is first so made available;^{[2004 Sec. 21(3)]}

• • If the work is computer-generated the above provisions do not apply and copyright expires at the end of the period of 50 years from the end of the calendar year in which the work was made.^{[2004 Sec. 21(7)]}
  • For a work of joint authorship, copyright expires 50 years after the death of the last known author.^{[2004 Sec. 21(8)]}
  • This section does not apply to Crown copyright, Parliamentary copyright or to copyright which subsists by virtue of section 203 (copyright of certain international organisations).^{[2004 Sec. 21(9)]}

• With respect to a sound recording, copyright expires at the end of the period of 50 years from the end of the calendar year in which it is made; or if during that period it is released, 50 years from the end of the calendar year in which it is released;^{[2004 Sec. 22(1)]}
• With respect to a film, copyright expires at the end of the period of 70 years from the end of the calendar year in which the death occurs of the last to die of the following persons the principal director; the author of the screenplay; the author of the dialogue; or the composer of music specially created for and used in the film.^{[2004 Sec. 23]}

• Copyright in a broadcast or cable programme expires at the end of the period of 50 years from the end of the calendar year in which the broadcast was made or the programme was included in a cable programme service.^{[2004 Sec. 24]}
• Copyright in the typographical arrangement of a published edition expires at the end of the period of 25 years from the end of the calendar year in which the edition was first published.^{[2004 Sec.25]}

• The copyright in such a work is not infringed by (a) making a graphic work representing it; (b) making a photograph or film of it; or (c) broadcasting or including in a cable programme service a visual image of it.^{[2004 Sec.86(2)]}
• Nor is the copyright infringed by the issue to the public of copies, or the broadcasting or inclusion in a cable programme service, of anything whose making was, by virtue of this section, not an infringement of the copyright.^{[2004 Sec.86(3)]}

Hintergrund

Jamaica was colonized by Spain in 1509. From 1655 it was held by England and then Great Britain until 6 August 1962, when the island became independent.

Jamaica has been a member of the Berne Convention since 1 January 1994, the World Trade Organization since 9 March 1995 and the WIPO Copyright Treaty since 12 June 2002.

As of 2018 the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO), an agency of the United Nations, listed The Copyright Act (Act No. 5 of 1993) as the main copyright law enacted by the legislature of Jamaica. WIPO holds the text of this law in their WIPO Lex database.

The 1993 act was modified by the The Copyright (Amendment) Act, 1999 and The Copyright (Amendment) Act, 13/2015. The 1999 act clarified the rules for compilations, but otherwise did not affect definitions of works and durations of protection. The 2015 amendment made more extensive changes, including changes to all durations of protection from 50 to 95 years in sections 10, 11 and 12.

Subject to the provisions of this section, the amendments under sections 10, 11, 12, 13 and 129 made by, and the provisions of sections 13A and 13B incorporated under the Copyright (Amendment) Act, 2015, that extend the date for the expiration of copyright or other rights shall, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Act or any other law, be deemed to have come into operation on the 1st day of January, 2012.^{[13/2015 Section 137A]}

Puerto Rico is an unincorporated territory of the United States located in the northeast Caribbean Sea. The island was subject to Spain until gaining limited self-government on 17 July 1898. The United States invaded the island on 25 July 1898, and it was formally ceded by Spain to the United States on 11 April 1899. The island was an unincorporated organized territory until 1952, when it became a United States unincorporated organized territory with commonwealth constitution. The island retains local laws, but is subject to United States federal law.

Copyright is governed by the US Copyright Act 1976, a Federal statute, and subsequent amendments. Moral rights are governed by state laws, but this should not affect when a work enters the public domain.

The French colonized Saint Lucia in 1663. The British and French alternately ruled the island until the British took over in 1814. It was part of the West Indies Federation from 1958 to 1962. Saint Lucia became independent on 22 February 1979.

The act was modified by the Copyright (Amendment) Act, 2000 (Act No. 7 of 2000). The amendments provided for the registration of collective societies, protected the moral rights of performers, extended the range of civil remedies and made other changes, but did not change the definitions of protected works or durations of protection.

Hintergrund

In 1845 all the Dutch Caribbean islands became part of a colony called Curaçao and Dependencies. In 1954 they became the Netherlands Antilles, a constituent country of the Kingdom of the Netherlands. Aruba seceded from the Netherlands Antilles in 1986 to become a separate constituent country. In 2010 the Netherlands Antilles was dissolved. Curaçao and Sint Maarten became autonomous constituent countries within the Kingdom, and Bonaire, Sint Eustatius, and Saba became special municipalities of the Netherlands.

Copyright regulations in Sint Maarten appear to be governed by the Auteursverordening (Author's Regulation) of 1912 as amended by National Decree containing general measures of 12 July 2006 (OJ 2006, no. 58). WIPO holds an English-language unofficial translation of this law.

Lage der Amerikanischen Jungferninseln

The United States Virgin Islands is a group of islands in the Caribbean. Legally they are an unincorporated and organized territory of the United States. They are subject to United States federal law, but may also enact local laws.

Of the organized territories, the United States Copyright Office says that: "U.S. federal copyright law applies in the U.S. Virgin Islands, Guam, and the Northern Mariana Islands but not in American Samoa." This is because US federal copyright law applies to "the organized territories under the jurisdiction of the United States Government," (17 U.S.C. 101) and the Virgin Islands became an organized territory with 48 U.S.C. 1541. Copyright is governed by the US Copyright Act 1976, a Federal statute, and subsequent amendments.
