attribution right

Read a random definition: fiction of law

A quick definition of attribution right:

Attribution right: This is a person's right to be recognized as the creator of a work, and to have their name associated with it. It also means that they can stop others from using their name in connection with a work they did not create. This is part of the moral rights that are recognized in some countries. In the US, creators of certain works of visual art have statutory attribution rights. Foreign copyright owners may also have attribution rights that can be enforced in the US.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Attribution right is a person's right to be recognized as the author of a work and to have their name associated with it. It also gives them the power to prevent others from using their name in connection with a work they did not create. This right is a part of moral rights recognized in civil-law countries.

For example, if a photographer takes a picture, they have the right to be credited as the photographer and have their name appear with the picture. They can also prevent someone else from using their name in connection with a picture they did not take.

Another example is when a writer creates a book, they have the right to be recognized as the author and have their name associated with the book. They can also prevent someone else from using their name in connection with a book they did not write.

These examples illustrate how attribution right gives creators control over their work and ensures that they receive proper recognition for their efforts.

How long can I delay sending my fall grades if they hurt my GPA? I’m still waiting on decisions and ideally I’m hoping they decide BEFORE seeing my new grades
TGM
18:27
dropped my GPA below median for a couple of schools I’m applying to, when I was above median before
Dkk
18:32
@TGM: Not long enough to get another transcript to recover.
Dkk
18:33
Honestly you could just wait until someone actually asks for your fall grades. Who knows.
Dkk
18:34
@wigwav: It looks like if below medians it will not help but If applying in November it seems you are still middle of the cycle.
18:34
@wigwav: nah
TGM
18:34

Dkk
18:35
@TGM: Expected to send it unprompted but you can wait and see.

Is your LSAT also below median?
TGM
18:37
It’s above median, but I’m applying T6 with unimpressive softs, so even with a good LSAT it’s tough
texaslawhopefully

TGM

(Course marked as Incomplete that’s supposed to be removed)
TGM
18:41
