Doctrines about property that is a right and not a thing: intangible property, the chose in action, exclusive rights, common law copyright and the first-sale doctrine that ends control of a copy once it is sold. A doctrine belongs here when its cited article describes a rule on intangible or intellectual property. It excludes land and succession doctrines. Statutes on copyright or patents are laws and sit in the statutes subcategory, so only the doctrines that explain such rights belong in this group.
