Abstract
Case comment of German Federal Supreme Court, Judgement of 30 April 2020, I ZR 228/15 – “Reformistischer Aufbruch II". Following the preliminary ruling by the Court of Justice of the European Union (CJEU), the German Federal Supreme Court (BGH) found that the publication on an online news portal of full versions of a previously published essay written by a politician does not infringe copyright.
