Read about the soon to be fully operational U.S. Copyright Office Small Claims Court:
“In December 2020, Congress passed the Copyright Alternative in Small-Claims Enforcement Act of 2020 (CASE Act), which directed the Copyright Office to establish the Copyright Claims Board (CCB). The CCB is a three-member tribunal within the Office that will provide an efficient and user-friendly option to resolve certain copyright disputes that involve up to $30,000 (called “small claims”). The Office is in the process of developing the CCB, which should begin hearing claims by spring 2022. In the meantime, read about what the CCB is, why you might want to use it, and our implementation progress.” [Link to U.S. Copyright small claims Court page.]
