Thanks to all of you for the input.

Just to clarify, it's not me involved, but someone very close, and have been asked my opinion. (I would be classed as Company A, BTW)

Martin and Sean, your points make sense, and do clear up the murkyness of it all, to some extent...

The lawyers will be involved, I'm sure.

Pete

If you want the short answer then it is that Company C still own the copyright.

This is beacuse copyright remains with the originator of the copyright (unless they created it as part of their normal course of employment, in which case it is their employer that would own it) unless there is a contract to the contrary which says something like "copyright will pass to the contracting party upon payment of invice"

So as they were never paid for their work then they still own the copyright and can do with it whatever they wish.

Feel free to PM me if you want to go into more detail.

Pete, have a look here:

Look at the IP one. I might be a bit biased

Good link Martin,

have printed it off so as to try to make some sort of sense of it way from the computer... it all looks as clear as mud now!

...and your point is?

Pete asked for some guidance as to who owns copyright and when it is transferred. That was the initial advice that I gave. You will also note that I asked him to PM me if he wanted more info. He did and I was able to give further explanation.

sweeping generalisation beats wrong advice though, don't you agree?
