| | Plaintiff assumes in its brief that the graphic depiction, or pictorial illustration, is separately copyrightable as a component part, so that a verbatim copy of the depiction alone would satisfy the Benny test. | | | Plaintiff holds valid copyrights on the various works noted in the first seven causes of action. | | | As the district court's August 6, 1975, order granting plaintiff's motion for summary judgment shows, it considered that plaintiff also held a valid copyright on "The Tortoise and the Hare" involved in plaintiff's eleventh cause of action. |

| | Plaintiff further asserts that the 1998 amendment to section 3-108 of the Tort Immunity Act, excluding immunity for public entities and public employees for willful and wanton misconduct, mandates reversal of the trial court's dismissal of his complaint. | | | To interpret plaintiff's complaint as merely being premised upon the failure of the Board to prevent the commission of a crime would be in direct contravention of the Civil Code, which provides that "[p]leadings shall be liberally construed with a view to doing substantial justice between the parties." 735 ILCS 5/2-603 (West 2000). | | | On appeal, plaintiff contends that the trial court erred in summarily dismissing the two counts because they were properly pleaded and the Board is not immune from liability under section 4-102 of the Local Governmental and Governmental Employees Tort Immunity Act (Tort Immunity Act) (745 ILCS 10/4-102 (West 2000)). |
