Case: Buc Int'l Corp. v. Int'l Yacht Council Ltd, 11th Cir. No. 05-16151 (2/25/08)

The One Sentence Summary: Defendants found liable for copyright infringement should have been allowed to reduce the judgment against them under Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 60(b)(5) by the amount paid by settling defendants because one satisfaction rule applies to copyright claims.
