Description
GURFEIN, Circuit Judge: ""JESUS CHRIST SUPERSTAR"" (""SUPERSTAR""), the successful rock opera, covered by copyrights, was publicly performed by the defendants without permission. They have been found to be infringers. We are the first appellate court to be asked to decide how statutory damages, 17 U.S.C. Γ§ 101(b), are to be assessed when there have been multiple unauthorized performances of an opera, several copyrights of which were ""infringed"" at each performance.1 The consolidated appeals are from two amended final judgments entered in the United States District Court for the District of Connecticut, Hon. Robert C. Zampano, Judge.
