THE CONTRACT OF AUDIOVISUAL ADAPTATION FROM THE PERSPECTIVE OF THE CIVIL CODE IN FORCE
THE CONTRACT OF AUDIOVISUAL ADAPTATION FROM THE PERSPECTIVE OF THE CIVIL CODE IN FORCE

Summary/Abstract: The study of the contract of audiovisual adaptation is necessary for multiple reasons. Firstly, because no contract of copyright transfer agreement, which includes also the contract of audiovisual adaptation, has its own regulation in the Civil Code (Law no. 287/2009). Consequently, the current article deals also with the problem of the incidence of the norms of common law on the analyzed contract. Secondly, the research was also determined by the fact that in the Law no. 8/1996, regarding the copyrights and the related rights, to this type of contract was allocated a laconic regulation, i.e. only in a single article of law. Thirdly, the discussion of this topic was necessary as the norms dedicated to the contract of audiovisual adaptation included in the special Law are not clearly, fluently and comprehensively enough formulated, presenting quite a few lacunae and even imprecision, which the author highlighted, sometimes under the form of de lege ferenda proposals.
