摘要

This paper considers how the Ghanaian courts have,over the years,dealt with copyright law cases in Ghana.It argues that though this area of law is at its inception stage in Ghana,its development depends,to a large extent,on the attitude of the Ghanaian courts.Thus,using an interpretive paradigm mainly through an examination of some Ghanaian cases on the subject,the paper concludes that the future of copyright law lies in the hands of the Ghanaian courts.
