Chapter 30 Misbehavior
"Fujimura, do you have any opinion on Shimokawa's accusation against you?" Utsunomiya looked at the dean of the Department of Humanities and asked. After Shimokawa stated the plagiarism of his "Eastern Tour to the Tang Dynasty", this question
Dean Fujimura remained silent for nearly ten minutes.
Things were starting to get a little worse.
Utsunomiya had secretly sent several signals to Fujimura, asking him to proceed as planned, but Fujimura did not follow his instructions.
At this moment, Fujimura frowned, still thinking about countermeasures in his mind, and glanced at the lawyer named Kitahara from time to time.
Utsunomiya, Utsunomiya! How could you let that kid come in!
Fujimura had already begun to curse Utsunomiya in his heart. In an unexpected situation, he actually asked himself to proceed according to the original plan. He must not dare to follow it.
After another period of silence, Fujimura said: "This disciplinary hearing is unfair. I was not informed in advance that the speeches made at this meeting will be used as evidence to be submitted to the court! I request
The hearing will be held at a later date."
Beiyuan sat in his seat, picked up the paper cup, and took a sip of water. "Oh. When the dean said this, I was a little curious. The matter to be solved today is nothing more than "The Journey to the East"
Regarding the plagiarism issue, the dean said that it takes time to prepare. Does it mean that what you want to tell the school is different from what you are going to tell the court? "
"You!" Fujimura choked violently. After a pause for a few seconds, he spoke again: "You who study law, don't you want procedural justice? Procedural justice! Now, I need procedural justice!"
Kitahara spread his hands, shrugged, imitating Utsunomiya's tone just now, and said, "This is not a court. There is no procedural justice."
This is not a court. These words were exactly what Utsunomiya said to Kitahara before the hearing. At this moment, they were quoted exactly and presented to Fujimura.
Utsunomiya's face was extremely dark, and his fingers could not help but tremble slightly. This time, he really lost face in front of the school's senior officials.
Didn't stop this Beiyuan, let alone enter the university meeting.
Moreover, what he said was quoted in reverse to counter Fujimura.
I can't drag it out any longer, I have to end.
Utsunomiya raised his head and said sternly, "Lawyer Kitahara, I hope you will note that this is not a place for you to perform. This occasion is very serious. In addition, I would like to remind you, please do not use the word 'plagiarism' casually.
Words. Whether the punctuation marks in the proofreading of ancient books can be protected by copyright requires expert judgment. Don’t just use the word ‘plagiarism’ to mislead the listeners present!”
"It seems that what Professor Utsunomiya means is that if the punctuation marks of ancient books cannot be protected by copyright, then even if Fujimura completely copies the results of Shimokawa's collation, he does not need to be responsible, right?" Kitahara
He shook the paper cup in his hand and said.
"Please don't make too many factual assumptions in your speech. Before you come up with specific evidence, please don't say that Fujimura copied the results of Shimokawa's school!" Utsunomiya raised his voice slightly, and the pressure on him began to
spread out.
"As for the protection of copyrights." Utsunomiya sneered.
He decided to carry out a dimensionality reduction attack on the young man in front of him
Although, this young man took out the pre-litigation investigation order, which surprised him.
However, this is still a young man.
This determined that his qualifications and experience were far inferior to mine.
Utsunomiya showed a somewhat cold smile and said, "Lawyer Kitahara, how many intellectual property cases have you represented?"
A pointed question was raised.
The pressure in the conference room suddenly converged.
It was as if a cannon had been pulled out directly, the shells were loaded, and the dark muzzle was pointed at the young lawyer on the field.
Anyone with a discerning eye at the scene knew that the lawyer in front of him looked to be in his twenties. It would be impossible for him to have extensive experience in representing intellectual property cases.
Before Kitahara could answer, Utsunomiya laughed to himself, "Lawyer Kitahara, I am not showing off my qualifications. What I want to say is that I have been working in the field of intellectual property since I was a monk.
When I taught at Kyoto University, I handled more than a hundred intellectual property cases. I think I am still qualified to speak in this regard."
"To fall within the scope of protection of the Copyright Law, it must be proven that the so-called infringed written materials belong to 'works'. If these written materials do not fall within the scope of 'works' stipulated in the Copyright Law, then naturally they will not constitute infringement.
.From my personal experience, when collating ancient books, the punctuation marks added to break up the sentences of ancient texts themselves are really difficult to qualify as a 'work' under the copyright law."
"So Lawyer Kitahara. Regarding this matter, I still suggest that Teacher Shimokawa and Teacher Fujimura have another talk. Maybe there is some misunderstanding between the two teachers, but I don't necessarily think so."
Utsunomiya directly stated his attitude.
This attitude is naturally very weighty.
As the vice president of the Oriental Intellectual Property Law Society, he is a famous professor.
Such an opinion from a scholar will inevitably influence the school's judgment to a great extent.
It can be said that it is almost a final decision.
In the face of absolute authority, even if you want to express your personal opinions no matter what, it will be useless.
This is a confrontation with too great a disparity in status.
Kitahara sat in his seat and sneered softly, "Professor Utsunomiya, didn't you just say not to treat this as a court? I remember that the purpose of this hearing is to resolve academic discipline issues, not legal infringement issues. Utsunomiya
The copyright infringement issue discussed by Professor Gong just now has nothing to do with the purpose of this disciplinary hearing."
"The main purpose of this disciplinary hearing should be whether Fujimura's behavior involves misconduct that violates the academic regulations of the university!" Suddenly, Kitahara's voice rose a few points.
Upon hearing the words academic misconduct, Utsunomiya's eyes suddenly opened wide and his fingers flexed slightly. Utsunomiya's confidence in this disciplinary hearing lies in the fact that this is the home court of Kyoto University. However,
The fact of this hearing is that there is another biggest disadvantage - that is, plagiarism in the sense of academic regulations is more stringent than plagiarism in the sense of copyright law.
Utsunomiya just wanted to fish in troubled waters and secretly change the concept.
But I saw the young lawyer with a somewhat cautious smile, took out a form from the table, and raised his voice: "The form in my hand is the academic achievement declaration form of the Graduate School of Humanities of Kyoto University last year.
As can be seen from the table, the academic achievements declared by 5 teachers in the Graduate School of Humanities last year included the proofreading of ancient books. It can be seen that the academic achievement evaluation at Kyoto University includes the proofreading of ancient books. That is, the proofreading of ancient books.
It is a recognized academic achievement.”
"Therefore, the collation of ancient books should follow the academic citation standards within Peking University. Dean Fujimura simply excerpted the collation results of Professor Jun Okawa's "Eastern Land Parade to the Tang Dynasty" for his own use, and did not mention it in the whole book.
Refer to the proofreading results of Associate Professor Kawashita. Regardless of whether this behavior constitutes plagiarism in the sense of copyright law, there is no doubt that it constitutes plagiarism of academic results, which is serious academic misconduct. Here, as a complaint
