Compliance with the Digital Millennium Copyright Act of 1998
Court TV is committed to full
compliance with U.S. copyright
law, and expects its users to
do the same.
The Digital Millennium Copyright
Act of 1998 ("DMCA")
provides recourse for owners
of copyrighted material who
believe that their rights under
U.S. copyright laws have been
infringed online. Under the
DMCA, copyright owners may contact
the authorized agent of an Internet
service provider to report alleged
infringements based on unauthorized
use of their protected works
appearing on web pages hosted
by the service provider. Upon
receipt of properly filed complaints
satisfying the requirements
of the DMCA, Court TV will remove
or block access to the allegedly
infringing material posted by
third party users of the Court
TV websites. If a Court TV user
who posted such material believes
in good faith that a notice
of copyright infringement has
been wrongly filed, the user
may submit a counter-notice
to provoke a private dispute
with the copyright owner. Court
TV will not be a party to such
disputes over alleged copyright
infringement.
