  • Bouygues Telecom made a referral to the Conseil d’État on an issue concerning the non-payment of the allowances claimed by the IAP in return for the assistance provided to HADOPI in seeking out Internet users engaging in illegal downloading. Starting in September 2010, HADOPI’s Commission for the Protection of Rights (Commission de Protection des Droits) had called on the electronic communication operators for assistance in seeking out, noting, and prosecuting failures to fulfil the obligation set forth in Article L. 336-3 of the intellectual property code (Code de la Propriété Intellectuelle).
