Hi,
I'm wondering if any of you know the following according to NY state (if state matters at all). I've developed a software while I was so called *partner* in a company. I never signed any papers saying that the other partners or the company has any rights to this software whatsoever or anything, however, the company was using the software for close to a year now (as I installed/maintained it on the servers). There is also no signed paper that we were partners, however, it's provable that I was involved in that company. Time came and I decided to split from the company (my other partners). I asked them to give me my share but they refused, so I just left as I never met them before.
My question now is who legally owns the software and what right if any my other partners have over this software. From the research that I have done and as far as I understand I solely own this software.
PS: purpose of this software is to help administrator to maintain/run client's data on the servers which the company owns.
Awaiting for a response.
Thanks much,
Simon
