separability

separability. Copyright. An element of various judicial tests used to determine whether a design in a functional article is a copyrightable work of applied art, or an uncopyrightable industrial design, the test being based on whether the beholder separates the work’s artistic appearance from its useful function. • Some courts use a strict physical separability test, but most look at whether the work’s two roles are conceptually separate. [Cases: Copyrights and Intellectual Property

4. C.J.S. Copyrights and Intellectual Property §§ 9–10, 16.]
