Incomplete question. The options:
a) Yes, Though the author will probably not enforce his or her rights under this situation, Monic has technically violated federal copyright law.
b) No. Educators have a right under the "fair use doctrine" to make limited use of copyrighted materials.
c) Yes. Monic has technically violated federal copyright law by copying and distributing this original work.
d) None of the above.
Answer:
b) No. Educators have a right under the "fair use doctrine" to make limited use of copyrighted materials.
Step-by-step explanation:
Based on the "fair use doctrine" in the United States, professor Monic did not violate copyright law from a legal standpoint.
Another interesting detail is the number of copies redistributed by Monica, only "30 copies", and according to the provisions of the "fair use doctrine" that can be considered fair. Not forgetting also the substantial nature of copying, since only "a passage" from the novel is photocopied.
