Justice Joe M. Omido, has once again upheld justice in the ongoing legal battle over copyright licensing. This afternoon, the court declined to stay the Copyright Tribunal&#8217;s decision, reinforcing the directive that KECOBO must issue KAMP with a provisional license without further delay. This ruling marks another resounding victory for KAMP in its unwavering pursuit of fairness and the protection of copyright. Justice has truly been served, reaffirming that the law must be upheld and that producers and performers rights cannot be ignored. The court\u2019s decision means that the license issued to PAVRISK on 2 August 2024 remains annulled, solidifying KAMP\u2019s rightful position as a legitimate Collective Management Organization (CMO) in Kenya. KAMP Chairperson, Ms. Angela Ndambuki in response to the ruling, stated: &#8220;KECOBO\u2019s attempt to review a stay was nothing more than a delaying tactic to obstruct justice, but today, they have been stopped right in their tracks. Justice has prevailed, and we will not be deterred in our quest to safeguard the rights of our members&#8221; Adding to this, KAMP CEO, CS Maurice Okoth emphasized: &#8220;This decision is a significant victory, not only for KAMP but for all rights holders who rely on a just and transparent licensing framework. We urge KECOBO to respect the rule of law and fulfill its obligations without further delay.&#8221; KAMP continues to lead the charge in advocating for the rights of producers and performers. This triumph serves as a firm reminder that legal due process must be respected, and regulatory bodies must act in accordance with the law. The position remains clear; KECOBO must obey the Tribunal\u2019s orders and ensure that KAMP receives its rightful provisional license. We extend our gratitude to our members, stakeholders, and the entire creative industry for their unwavering support. KAMP WINS AGAIN \u2013 THE FIGHT FOR JUSTICE CONTINUES!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>31 JANUARY 2025 \u2013 The High Court of Kenya, in Case Number, HCA\/E1035\/2024, presided over&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-5747","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/kenyatopstories.co.ke\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5747","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/kenyatopstories.co.ke\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/kenyatopstories.co.ke\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kenyatopstories.co.ke\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kenyatopstories.co.ke\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=5747"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/kenyatopstories.co.ke\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5747\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":5749,"href":"https:\/\/kenyatopstories.co.ke\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5747\/revisions\/5749"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/kenyatopstories.co.ke\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=5747"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kenyatopstories.co.ke\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=5747"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kenyatopstories.co.ke\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=5747"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
