People who regularly infringe copyright will get the message.&#8217; <\/p>\n<p>Edinburgh law firm Shepherd &amp; Wedderburn says the small claims option may encourage people to take legal action where, before, they may not have done.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018If an individual can bring a claim for copyright infringement with little risk of costs this may open the floodgates,&#8217; says the firm on its website. <\/p>\n<p>Though the PCC deals with cases in England and Wales, the system may have a wider reach.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;Given the UK and EU-wide nature of intellectual property rights, the new procedure will be of relevance to Scottish businesses also,&#8217; claims Shepherd &amp; Wedderburn.<\/p>\n<p>\n    <strong>Photographers welcome move <\/strong>\n  <\/p>\n<p>The Bureau of Freelance Photographers (BFP) was quick to welcome the move.<\/p>\n<p>The BFP points out that, previously, photographers faced a long wait when pursuing civil actions through their local county court &#8211; \u2018before eventually coming before a judge who often has little or no experience of copyright issues&#8217;.<\/p>\n<p>In its November <em>Market Newsletter<\/em>, the organisation adds: \u2018The new procedure is intended to be user-friendly, with hearings in a judge&#8217;s chambers rather than a courtroom.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018Decisions can also be made on written documents alone or even following a telephone hearing&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>\u2018It has been too easy for infringers to calculate that a copyright owner would be reluctant to pursue a case where the cost of enforcement might be greater than the value of the claim.&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>Announcing the new system, on 1 October, Business Minister Michael Fallon said: \u2018Lower legal costs will make it easier for entrepreneurs to protect their creative ideas where they had previously struggled to access justice in what could often be an expensive process.&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>\n    <a href=\"http:\/\/amateurphotographer.co.uk\/photo-news\/539324\/photography-copyright-claims-a-step-by-step-guide\">STEP-BY-STEP GUIDE TO MAKING A CLAIM <\/a>\n  <\/p>\n<p>For more details see <a href=\"http:\/\/www.justice.gov.uk\/downloads\/courts\/patents-court\/patents-court-small-claims.pdf\">HERE <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Copyright law breakers, including those who regard online photos as easy prey, face a potential flood of lawsuits from photographers now equipped with an easier and cheaper legal process.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":324,"featured_media":6569,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[39],"tags":[],"product-category":[],"class_list":["post-11154","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-photo-news"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v26.8 (Yoast SEO v26.8) -
