Copyright Infringement Penalties
Copyright encroachment is the demonstration of damaging any
of a copyright proprietor's selective rights allowed by the government
Copyright Act. There are three components that must be set up all together for
the encroachment to happen.
1. The
copyright holder must have a legitimate copyright.
2. The man
who is supposedly encroaching must approach the copyrighted work.
3. The
duplication of the copyrighted work must be outside the special cases.
The legitimate punishments for copyright encroachment are:
1. Infringer
pays the genuine dollar measure of harms and benefits.
2. The law
gives a range from $200 to $150,000 for each work encroached.
3. Infringer
pays for all lawyers expenses and court costs.
4. The Court
can issue a directive to stop the encroaching demonstrations.
5. The Court
can seize the unlawful works.
6. The
infringer can go to imprison.
