Although the evidence indicates that most authors, including college students, are aware of rules regarding the use of quotation marks, plagiarism of text is probably the most common type of plagiarism However in Costa Rica that kind of conduct is not a felony, therefore causes only civil liability that is potential responsibility for payment of damages Moreover the costarican Copyright Law does not have a definition of plagiariasm, lack which causes a lot of ambiguity. On the other hand there are other related terms like piracy and self -plagiarism which must be explained in order to avoid confusion. Finally, in Costa Rica, Perú and Colombia, for instance, judicial tribunals have solved relevant cases dealing with plagiarism and copyright infringement, particularly the moral rights.
