Why the court refused an injunction in the 2017 Australian Redbubble case

December 2017

FiledA court judgment, read directly.

What this is

Why the court refused an injunction in the 2017 Australian Redbubble case: the evidence did not show a threat of repeated infringement, and Redbubble had changed its programme.

How it’s built

  1. Read from the Federal Court of Australia judgment of December 2017.

What we assumed

Nothing. The figure is used as published.

Sanity check

The court also found the injunction as drafted did not fit a case of authorising infringement, so the refusal says little about the merits.
