Legal Question in Technology Law in Nevada

Although you give no specific information as to what the letter says, I have never heard of a copyright claim for just watching a movie - whether in a theater, online, or from a DVD. The Copyright Act spells out very specific exclusive rights, and none of them include watching a movie, reading a book, and so on. I have often said that you can watch a stolen infringing DVD movie without infringing the copyright. So unless they are basing their claim on something more than just watching it, you should be very suspicious of what smells like a sham. Check with your lawyer, and be sure to provide your lawyer with the entire letter and any related facts. It could be it is not your lawyer, but law enforcement officials you should be telling this to.
