Peermusic III, Ltd.

Open case ↗

Needs attention

  • The available title evidence does not connect Donovan Leitch’s registered claim to Peer International Corporation, or Peer International Corporation to case owner Peermusic III, Ltd. The two Peermusic-related agreements below are synchronization licenses, not transfers of copyright.
  • Confirm execution of Peermusic III’s Third Chair authorization: the PDF contains blank date/signature lines and a BoldSign document ID, but no completion certificate or audit trail was available in the file.
  • The TikTok platform-content ID did not resolve in tiktok.items; the post date and account-region fields could not be checked.

Rights by work

  • Season of the Witch — Donovan Leitch composition (Lana Del Rey recording version)

    Show chain diagram
    • Master: Not listed for this work.
    • Composition: The catalogue scope is composition. The renewal registration identifies Donovan Leitch as author and claimant for “Season of the witch.” Peer International Corporation’s licenses describe its interest as 100% and represent licensing/control authority, but neither supplies the underlying acquisition nor establishes a rights link to Peermusic III, Ltd. The composition chain to the case owner is therefore not established by the reviewed evidence.
    Evidence and mapping limits

    The claim-linked registry association ties the selected audio match to ISRC GBUM71903671. The stored Lana Del Rey sound-recording registration identifies that ISRC/version; the composition renewal identifies “Season of the witch,” “Words & music,” and Donovan Leitch as author/claimant. The exact Spotify ID had no row in spotify.tracks. The registration and audio-to-ISRC association identify the version/work but do not establish Peermusic III’s composition title. No result in the case organization’s active text documents is proof that an agreement does not exist elsewhere. Of 148 active organization documents, 131 had both extracted text and a search vector; 17 had neither and were not text-searchable.

Supporting documents

  • RE0000654984 — 1994 renewal record for “Season of the witch”; identifies Donovan Leitch as author and claimant and notes “Words & music.” This establishes the recorded registration facts, not a later transfer to Peermusic.
  • SR0000858754 — identifies Lana Del Rey’s sound recording of “Season Of The Witch” and ISRC GBUM71903671; cited only to identify the matched recording/version, not as a master-rights claim by Peermusic.
  • REDACTED Season Of the Witch Licensing History 1.pdf — the 2010 Microsoft sync license names Peer International Corporation at 100% and includes its warranty that it owns or controls the composition. It licenses a specific use and expressly reserves ungranted rights; it is not a title-transfer instrument.
  • REDACTED Season of the Witch Licensing History 2.pdf — the 2016 sync license is from Southern Music Publishing on behalf of Peer International Corporation, states 100% administered, and licenses limited uses. It expressly reserves copyright ownership and does not license an existing master.
  • Peermusic III, Ltd. Client_Claim_Authorization_Letter_Completed.pdf — states that Peermusic III authorizes Third Chair to enforce claims for Company Content. Its scope is broad, but execution and the particular work’s inclusion need reviewer confirmation; the source shows a BoldSign ID but no completion evidence.

Document check

Still needed

  • The composition assignment, acquisition agreement, or other operative instrument linking Donovan Leitch’s rights to Peer International Corporation.
  • An assignment, succession/identity record, or applicable mandate connecting Peer International Corporation to Peermusic III, Ltd. for this composition.
  • The BoldSign completion record for the Peermusic III authorization and confirmation that this work is within its Company Content.
  • Review of any relevant items among the 17 active organization documents without extracted text.

What supports the chain

The stored composition renewal records Donovan Leitch’s authorship and claimant status. Two specific-use licenses represent Peer International Corporation as having 100% composition control/administration, but do not transfer title or bridge that company to Peermusic III. The master estate is not listed for this work.
