Death — devolution of copyright coming into existence after would‑be owner dies
144.—(1)  This section applies where a copyright comes into existence after the death of the person who would have been the copyright owner had he or she been alive.
(2)  The ownership of the copyright is to devolve as if —
(a)the copyright existed immediately before the person’s death; and
(b)the person had then been the copyright owner.
(3)  Despite sections 133, 134, 135 and 136, the person to whom the copyright devolves is the first owner of the copyright.
