Many choose to register their works because they have the facts of their public copyright and want a certificate of registration. Registered works may be eligible for statutory damages and attorneys` fees in successful litigation.
If the registration is made within five years of publication, it is considered prima facie evidence in court. See Circular 1, Principles of Copyright, section „Registration of Copyright“ and Circular 38b, Highlights of Copyright Amendments in the Uruguay Round Agreements Act (URAA), on the Work of Non-U.S. Citizens. The United States has copyright relations with most countries in the world, and through these agreements, we respect the copyrights of each other`s citizens. However, the United States does not have such copyright relationships with all countries. For a list of countries and the nature of their copyright relations with the United States, see Circular 38a, U.S. International Copyright Relations. “ Legal Man “ is the debut single by Scottish band Belle and Sebastian.
