Weatherly v. Universal Music Publishing Group

How courts have described this case

Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.

• “The duty of diligence does not create a duty to continuously monitor a [licensee] to ensure 19 compliance with its obligations, absent any reason to otherwise suspect a breach. The law does 20 not inject such paranoia into the licensor-licensee relationship.”
• “Where no duty is imposed by 14 law to make inquiry, and where, under the circumstances, a prudent man would not be put on 15 inquiry, the mere fact that means of knowledge are open and not availed of does not operate to 16 give constructive notice of the facts.”
