The Tel-Aviv District Court ruled that one shall mention the name of the original work's creator next to that work, when it is possible, and in such manner and scope that are customary in the specific field. However, the court emphasized that this owner's right is not absolute, and that the requirement to mention the name of the creator shall apply when it is proved to the court that it is customary to do so in the relevant field.
The plaintiff, a graphic designer and a photographer, photographed kitchenware which were published in a catalogue produced for the housewares company, "Soltam Radad", but his name wasn't mentioned in the catalogue. He contended that the fact that his name was not mentioned, constitutes a violation of his "moral right", under section 4a(1) of the Copyright Act.
The court held that the burden to prove that in the specific field that both sides are active in, the photographer's name should be mentioned – lies upon the plaintiff. The court ruled that in such circumstances, whereby the evidences are equivocal, the plaintiff failed to prove that in the relevant field it is customary to mention the photographer's name. Therefore, the claim was denied.
