When a new claimant comes forward with a claim to a catalogue currently registered to another party (the “Original Claimant”), CMRRA will seek instructions from the Original Claimant on if they maintain, revise, or relinquish their claims to that catalogue.
CMRRA reserves the right, in an effort to assist the parties in resolving the conflict, and at any time during the conflict resolution process, to request claimants to submit relevant documentation to support their claim. However, CMRRA does not otherwise actively participate in the resolution of counterclaims or disputes.
This information may help to resolve a conflict and prevent royalties from being held unnecessarily.
