About this page
This page contains data gathered by running a script to collect information about newly available public documents on eCCB. I stored that information in a SQLite database, then ran additional queries to create the tables and graphs on this page. Because the information was collected and compiled by scripts and mostly not checked by a human, I can't guarantee that it's 100% accurate. It should be pretty close, and more accurate than what I was capturing with the previous scripts (e.g. if two reasons are found in a dismissal order, both are now collected). I started watching CCB data when the CCB was a few months old, and I tried to make sure my code accounted for a variety of rare occurrences and edge cases. I also had it prompt for human input when the data it grabs is hard to interpret.
The code is available on GitHub with a BSD license. I don't have any rights in the PDFs stored in that repository, and the data are factual, but to the extent I own copyright in anything else in the project, you're welcome to reuse it under the terms of a Creative Commons Attribution (CC BY 4.0) license. You can contact me (Katie Fortney) at bibliobaloney@duck.com if you have questions, and I will try to answer them. I used that address for this project because while it combines my interest in copyright with my programming hobby, it's not particularly related to the work that I do for the University of California.
If you're looking for the CCB info that was here in 2023, it's also been archived. If you want to skim or search what claimants were writing in their claims, you can download a file that incudes that language for: Infringement claims (.csv); Noninfringement claims (.csv); or DMCA misrepresentation claims (.csv).
Page last updated 2025-06-20. All "current," total, "Past 60 days," etc. information is as of that date.
Final Determinations
Per the CCB website, "A CCB proceeding becomes 'active' after the claimant has filed proof of service with the CCB, and the respondent ... has not opted out within the required time (usually sixty days). ... After parties have submitted their written testimony and any hearings have been held, the CCB will issue its final determination."

Historical status numbers
Dismissed Cases
Reasons for dismissal
Totals may be more than the total number of dismissal orders because a few orders include two reasons, e.g. bad faith and failure to amend.
A few claims have been dismissed as the result of a settlement with the condition that they are initially without prejudice but will become dismissals with prejudice if the claimant does not file a new claim within a certain period of time. I have abbreviated this as "Settlement; prejudice pending."
There's also a pie chart for the reasons across all dismissals so far.

Smaller claims
"When total damages sought in a claim do not exceed $5,000 (exclusive of attorneys' fees and costs), a claimant may request consideration under the CCB's 'Smaller Claims' procedures. Smaller Claims will be decided by a single Copyright Claims Officer, but the determination will have the same effect as one issued by the full CCB. These types of cases are even more streamlined than the typical cases before the CCB."

Infringement Claims: Works Allegedly Infringed
In the database I created I have chosen to only include information on works from infringement claims. Some claims list multiple works. The data here describes all works listed in all infringement claims, not just, e.g., the first listed work.

Registration
For works allegedly infringed, did the claimant assert that the work was already registered at the time the claim was filed? Note that sometimes claimants assert this when it is not the case; I collected purported registration numbers and request numbers, but did not perform any checks or analysis on those numbers.

Orders to Amend
This data was collected by scraping all relevant headings from all publicly availble documents matching the type "Order to Amend Noncompliant Claim." The problems with claims can vary widely, and the attorneys writing the orders to amend aren't limited to a predefined set of headings. Because of that, similar reasons/headings appear in the table below, and the full tables would be very long, so I've trimmed them as indicated below. The full list of headings found, and counts for each, is provided at the end of the page for those who want to do their own analysis.
Note that many of the orders to amend include multiple reasons.
