The 12th edition of the renowned commentary has now been published by Prof. Dr. Axel Nordemann, Prof. Dr. Jan Bernd Nordemann and Prof. Dr. Christian Czychowski and (with the exception of the section on copyright crime) has been revised exclusively by BOEHMERT & BOEHMERT lawyers.

This standard commentary for copyright practice includes all statutory innovations – including the Knowledge Society Copyright Act (UrhWissG) enacted on 30 June 2017 – as well as current German and European jurisprudence.
