October 22, the U.S. House passed H.R. 2426, the Copyright Alternative in Small-Claims Enforcement Act of 2019. Also known as the "CASE Act," the bill would provide copyright owners of modest means a less expensive, voluntary venue to bring infringement claims. My September 22 blog post discussed the merits of the CASE Act. It is important access to justice legislation. Bravo to the House for giving the bill a 410-6 passing vote. Hopefully, the Senate will promptly approve the CASE Act.
