James E. Hudson Copyright Protection Video

Copyright Protection

In this educational video, Jim Hudson discussed copyright protection for creative works. He states that registration is beneficial for asserting infringement in federal court, especially for seeking relief such statutory damages and attorney’s fees, where timely registration is critical. Copyright protection extends to various forms of artistic expression, including software code and drawings. Businesses should consider registration of those original works due to the potential for revenue and the low cost of registration.
