Federal Register / Vol. 76, No. 3 / Wednesday, January 5, 2011 / Notices
January 26, 2009, the Judges announced
the royalty rates and terms for the
section 115 compulsory license. 74 FR
4510 (January 26, 2009). Thus, in
accordance with section 804(b)(4), a
party may file a petition in 2011.
However, no petition has been filed;
consequently, section 803(b)(1)(A)(i)(V)
requires the Judges to publish in the
Federal Register by no later than
January 5, 2011, a notice commencing
this proceeding. Today’s notice fulfills
this requirement.
Petitions to Participate
Petitions to Participate must be filed
in accordance with § 351.1(b) of the
Judges’ regulations. See 37 CFR
351.1(b). Petitions to Participate must be
accompanied by the $150 filing fee.
Cash will not be accepted; therefore,
parties must pay the filing fee with a
check or money order made payable to
the ‘‘Copyright Royalty Board.’’ If a
check received in payment of the filing
fee is returned for lack of sufficient
funds, the corresponding Petition to
Participate will be dismissed.
Note that in accordance with 37 CFR
350.2 (Representation), only attorneys
who are members of the bar in one or
more states and in good standing will be
allowed to represent parties before the
Copyright Royalty Judges, unless a party
is an individual who represents herself
