==============
Judgement Date:08.09.2022
Case No. CS (COMM) 402/2019
Hon'ble High Court of Delhi
Navin Chawla , H.J
Warner Bros Vs www.Uatchfree.st & Ors

The Subject matter Suit was decreed against Rogue websites under the Provisions of Order 13-A of the Commercial Court Act 2015 as the the Defendant Nos. 1, 14 to 21 were not appearing.

The Hon'ble High Court of Delhi decreed the suit by observing that the Defendant Nos. 1, 14 to 21 have no real prospect of successfully defending the claim of copyright infringement and have further not chosen to contest the said claim.

The Hon'ble Court further observed that the present matter is mainly concerned with the enforcement of the injunction orders which are passed against the rogue websites.

The rogue websites do not have any defense to the claim of copyright infringement but use the anonymity offered by the internet to engage in illegal activities, such as copyright infringement in the present case.

Accordingly the Suit was summarily decreed in favour of the Plaintiff under the Provisions of Order 13-A of the Commercial Court Act 2015.
