Reliability Notes

Official judiciary.uk PDF of the approved public judgment in claim IL-2023-000007, also cited as [2025] EWHC 2863 (Ch). Primary authority for the holdings summarized on the case page. It is English law, not a U.S. fair-use decision. The judgment records that Getty abandoned primary training and output copyright claims before closing submissions. A later permission-to-appeal ruling, [2025] EWHC 3343 (Ch), is not this source.
