Andrzej Sapkowski, the author of The Witcher novel series has come back to CD Projekt Red with demands for more money citing Polish copyright law. It’s all legalese and I’m only certified to practice Bird Law on a one square mile patch of dirt in northeast Philadelphia but I’ll try to translate where I can.
On October 1st, Mr. Sapkowski’s legal team filed a demand for further payment from CD Projekt Red citing Article 44 of Polish Copyright Law. Going off of the 1994 Act of Copyright and Related Rights this article states that:
In the event of gross discrepancy between the remuneration of the author and the benefits of the acquirer of the author’s economic rights or the licensee, the author may request the court for a due increase of his/her remuneration.
