The Court from Iasi decided that the development of a computer program by former employees who had access to the source code does not infringe copyright if the two programs have different architectures, use different technologies and are developed by different methods.
In the case in question, a company that owns and operates a computer program – call counting system has sued former employees and the company set up by them, accusing them of acquiring and using a computer program without right. Former employees have demonstrated that they have developed a new computer program – call counting system from scratch without reusing / copying the source code.
