The C.A.S.E. Act is good news!

Potentially good news in a sea of evil for creators: a small claims court copyright act has been introduced in the House. This -the Copyright Alternative In Small-Claims Enforcement (CASE) Act of 2016 would allow individuals a cost-effective (as opposed to cost-prohibitive) way to seek recourse against copyright infringers.

Thank you, Representative Hakeem Jeffries and co-sponsor Representative Tom Marino!

Authors and followers, please contact your own Congresspersons to encourage them to support CASE
