Activity run in FRENCH

Authors are increasingly turning to the Small Claims Court to settle conflicts over unauthorized uses of their works.  The merit of this approach has been more officially recognized in 2019 in the United States with the Copyright Alternative in Small-Claims Enforcement Act (the “CASE Act”).  Two judges who practiced in copyright law before their appointments to the bench will guide a discussion on the merits of each system.
