Citations, Plagiarism and Different citation styles
What is a citation? Citation is way of giving credit when certain material in your work came
from another source; gives your readers the information necessary to find that source again-- it
provides an important roadmap to your research process.
Why do researchers cite? Purposes of Citations
To show your reader you've done proper research by listing sources you used to get
your information
To be a responsible scholar by giving credit to other researchers and acknowledging
their ideas
To avoid plagiarism by quoting words and ideas used by other authors
To allow your reader to track down the sources you used by citing them accurately in
your paper by way of footnotes, a bibliography or reference list
Standard elements of citation
- author name(s)
- titles of books, articles, and journals
- date of publication
- page numbers
- volume and issue numbers (for articles)
Plagiarism - act of using someone else’s work—such as words, ideas, data, or creative
expressions—without proper acknowledgment or citation, presenting it as one’s own. Although
widely addressed in academic and professional standards, “plagiarism” is not expressly named
as a specific offense in the Philippine legal code. It is, however, covered under the broader
umbrella of copyright infringement if the plagiarized work is protected by copyright and if the
unauthorized use violates the exclusive rights of the copyright owner.
Ethical vs. Legal Dimensions
Ethical/Academic Violation: Many institutions (universities, publishers, professional bodies)
have guidelines imposing sanctions on plagiarism, ranging from academic penalties (failing
grades, expulsion) to reputational damage.
Legal Violation (Copyright Infringement): When someone reproduces or uses a protected
work—without authorization or without adhering to the “fair use” or other exemptions—this may
constitute copyright infringement, which can be actionable under the Intellectual Property Code
of the Philippines (R.A. 8293) and related laws.
Plagiarism vs. Copyright Infringement
Although plagiarism and copyright infringement are often discussed together, they are not
legally identical:
Plagiarism Copyright Infringement
1. Primarily an ethical breach or moral wrong. 1. A legal violation of the Intellectual Property
Code.
2. Involves failing to credit the author or 2. Focuses on the unauthorized use,
passing off someone else’s work as one’s reproduction, or distribution of a copyrighted
own. work.
3. Remedied often by academic or 3. The central question is whether the
professional disciplinary processes. plagiarist violated an exclusive right of the
owner (e.g., reproduction without
permission).
Legal Framework: Copyright Law in the Philippines
Republic Act No. 8293 (The Intellectual Property Code of the Philippines)
Enacted in 1998, R.A. 8293 consolidated and revised the country’s laws on intellectual property.
Pertinent aspects related to plagiarism include:
- Exclusive Rights of the Copyright Owner (Section 177)
The author of a literary, scholarly, artistic, or other original work is granted the exclusive
right to reproduce, prepare derivative works, distribute copies, perform or display the
work publicly, and to allow or prohibit any of these acts.
- Original Works (Section 172)
Copyright extends to original intellectual creations in the literary and artistic domain,
Legal Research and Writing – Thu 7:30-9:30pm | Atty. Kristy Jane M. Balino
Prepared by: BURCE, ROJANE MAE P.
including books, lectures, letters, musical works, paintings, drawings, and other literary,
scholarly, scientific, and artistic works, irrespective of mode or form of expression.
- Moral Rights (Sections 193-198)
Authors have the right to:
1. Require that their authorship be properly attributed to them.
2. Object to any distortion or modification of the work that could harm their reputation.
3. Withdraw the work from circulation if it no longer reflects their convictions.
- Fair Use (Section 185)
Certain acts, such as quoting excerpts for scholarly, research, or news purposes, can be
considered fair use, provided they are compatible with fair practice and that the source,
including the author’s name, is properly acknowledged.
Possible Legal Actions and Penalties
Civil Liability – An author or copyright holder may file a civil action for damages if their
exclusive rights are violated. Under R.A. 8293, the copyright owner may seek:
- Injunction (court order to prevent further infringement).
- Actual Damages (loss caused by unauthorized use).
- Moral Damages (for injury to reputation or honor, especially relevant to moral rights
violations).
- Exemplary Damages (to set an example when infringement is committed with malice).
- Attorney’s Fees.
Criminal Liability – In extreme cases where the infringement is willful or carried out on a
commercial scale, criminal charges may be filed, potentially resulting in fines and imprisonment.
The penalties depend on the extent of the infringement and any aggravating circumstances,
such as repeated violations or piracy.
Moral Rights Cases: Courts have affirmed that failing to acknowledge the creator of a work can
violate moral rights, subjecting the violator to damages. Even minor works that are
“transformations” or “adaptations” could be scrutinized if the author’s right to attribution is
ignored.
*To Avoid Plagiarism and Copyright Infringement in academic, journalistic, or
professional contexts, always acknowledge the original source.
Seeking Permission - If the portion of the work to be used is substantial or not covered by the
fair use exceptions, obtain written permission or a license from the copyright owner or publisher.
Fair Use Guidelines is typically evaluated on four factors (mirroring the concept found in many
jurisdictions):
- Purpose and character of the use (whether for commercial or nonprofit educational
purposes).
- Nature of the copyrighted work.
- Amount and substantiality of the portion used.
- Effect of the use on the market for or value of the original work.
Role of the Intellectual Property Office of the Philippines (IPOPHL) - Accepts complaints
and aids in administrative enforcement proceedings; offers alternative dispute resolution (ADR)
services, such as mediation, to resolve copyright-related disputes before escalating to court.
Court Proceedings
Civil Cases: Initiated by filing a complaint in the proper Regional Trial Court with jurisdiction
over intellectual property disputes.
Criminal Cases: Typically commence with a complaint filed with the Department of Justice or
local prosecutors, followed by a preliminary investigation to determine probable cause.
Administrative Proceedings
For minor infractions or less complex cases, administrative remedies through IPOPHL may
suffice, leading to cease-and-desist orders or fines without a full trial.
Practical Implications
Academic Setting: Universities may penalize students or faculty for plagiarism without
necessarily resorting to legal action. However, if significant copyrighted material is used (e.g.,
large sections of a book or article) without permission, the publisher or author could pursue
copyright infringement claims.
Professional and Creative Industries: Writers, designers, photographers, and other content
creators must remain vigilant about properly licensing and attributing source material.
Commercial use of plagiarized/copyrighted material is more likely to draw legal scrutiny.

Online and Digital Media: With the rise of digital content creation, including blogs, social media
posts, and YouTube videos, plagiarism can quickly escalate into copyright infringement.
Attribution and permission are crucial, especially where the market for digital works is well-
monitored.
Conclusion
In the Philippines, plagiarism is primarily an ethical or academic offense, but it can give rise
to legal liability when it constitutes copyright infringement. The Intellectual Property Code (R.A.
8293) grants authors exclusive rights over their works, including the right to be recognized as
the creator (moral right) and to control the reproduction and distribution of their works (economic
rights). Using another’s work without proper attribution may violate these rights, especially if it
goes beyond the scope of fair use or lacks permission.

Those found in secondary sources such as the Supreme Court Reports Annotated (SCRA) are
cited by family name of the parties, case no. (G.R. No.), date of promulgation, volume number
of the court reports and page. For example:
Ong v. People, G.R. No. 139006, November 27, 2000, 346 SCRA 117.
The case names are cited using the surnames of the parties. Exception to the general rule of
using family names are Islamic, Chinese names, which are cited in full. Those with Christian first

anywhere and anytime.
