The
United States District Court for the Northern District of Ohio has
confirmed what Suzanne Shell has been claiming all along: That Ms. Shell
is the owner of the copyright in Parents Guide to the System.
Defendant Ray Lautenschlager, who has admitted he operates
under the non-business alter-ego Ohio Family Rights, has been found liable for wilful copyright infringement of
this book in Shell v. Ohio Family Rights, et. al. The images here are
from the summary judgment entered against Mr. Lautenschlager.
The
basis of this finding is that Ms. Barnes exceeded the authority granted
under the license granted to her by Ms. Shell, which invalidates the
permissive use, making this entire work an infringement of Ms. Shell's
copyright.
Ray
Lautenschlager got it wrong, along with all supporters of Cheryl
Barnes, when they called Ms. Shell a liar and a thief for asserting her
property rights to this book. All supporters of the plagiarist Cheryl
Barnes are now on notice that they may not distribute, display, or share
this book without committing copyright infringement.
Ray
Lautenschlager has been left holding the bag for damages awarded to Ms.
Shell. Just like his same supporters left Leonard Henderson hold the
damages bag for their copyright infringements. Funny, how quickly these
so-called family advocates desert their leaders when the rubber hits the
road.
