Simple English definitions for legal terms

public passage

Read a random definition: habeas corpus ad subjiciendum

A quick definition of public passage:

A public passage is a right that allows the public to travel over a body of water, even if the land underneath is privately owned. This means that people can use boats or other means of transportation to travel through the waterway without permission from the landowner.

A performance right is a special right that belongs to the person who created a piece of art, like a song or a play. This right allows them to control how their work is performed in public, whether it's on stage or on TV. No one else can perform the work without permission from the creator or their representative, unless there is a special rule that allows it.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Public passage is a right that the public has to travel over a body of water, regardless of whether the land underneath is owned by the public or a private individual.

For example, if a river runs through privately owned land, the public still has the right to use the river for transportation or recreation purposes.

This right is important because it ensures that bodies of water are accessible to everyone, regardless of their socioeconomic status or property ownership.

Definition: Public-performance right is a copyright holder's exclusive right to publicly recite, play, act, show, or otherwise perform their protected work, whether directly or through technological means (such as broadcasting the work on television).

For example, if a musician writes a song, they have the exclusive right to perform that song in public. If someone else wants to perform the song, they need to get permission from the copyright holder.

This right is important because it allows creators to control how their work is used and ensures that they are compensated for their efforts.
