On December 8, the U.S. Copyright Office published a Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (NPRM) to establish procedures governing active proceedings before the Copyright Claims Board (CCB) and post-determination procedures. “The proposed rule provides requirements regarding procedural practice, scheduling, conferences, discovery, written testimony, hearings, settlement, smaller claims, default and failure to prosecute, records, post-determination procedures, and conduct of parties.” Initial comments are due February 7, and reply comments are due February 22. The Office will also initiate a subsequent rulemaking regarding law student representation.
