Copyright Tribunal

Copyright Tribunal

The Copyright Tribunal is a tribunal in the United Kingdom which has jurisdiction over some intellectual property disputes under the Copyright, Designs and Patents Act 1988. Its principal task is adjudicating disputes between collective licensing agencies (such as the Copyright Licensing Agency) and persons (natural or legal) who feel they have been unfairly treated[1]; for example if a licence is refused, or is offered on terms which the person considers unreasonable[2].
