JPM Partners has successfully represented photographer Stevo Vasiljevic before the Court of Appeals of Montenegro in a case against NGO Radio Skala concerning a violation of copyright rights.

According to JPM Partners, "with this ruling, the court not only established the infringement of copyright but also prohibited the defendant from unauthorized publication of the plaintiff’s photographs on its website and obligated the association to compensate the plaintiff for both material and non-material damages, which represents a step further in the development of case law regarding the determination of the amount of compensation for material damages in cases of copyright infringement regarding photographs."

The JPM Partners team included Partner Marija Zivkovic and Associate Mina Coguric.
