Scholz Design, Inc. (Toledo, OH) has sued Keystone Development Corp. (Marlborough, MA) and a host of other developers, builders, and an architect alleging copyright infringement in house plans created and owned by Scholz. Scholz alleges that two houses (one in MA and one in NH) were built using its copyrighted designs and plans without permission.
The plans were originally sent to certain defendants for review in 2001 and 2002 but the defendants supposedly turned them down. At some point the plans were used to build the two houses, but the complaint doesn’t say when. It does say that Scholz had no “reason to investigate a potential copyright violation” until 2010.
What I want to know is when were the houses built, what caused Scholz to investigate, and what took so long? There are timeline issues here too.
