OPINION

WOLIN, District Judge.

In this matter the Court is called upon to decide whether plaintiff, the City of Newark (“Newark”), is the owner of three copyrights and five trademarks related to an educational program designed to deter juvenile car theft, known as People Against Car Theft. The Court has bifurcated this matter so that the issues of copyright and trademark ownership could be decided prior to the issues of infringement and damages. As a result, the Court conducted a one day bench trial on the issues of ownership. The following constitutes the Opinion of the Court.
