SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Each year 

cable systems must submit royalty 

payments to the Register of Copyrights 

as required by the statutory license 

detailed in section 111 of the Copyright 

Act for the retransmission to cable 

subscribers of over-the-air television 

and radio broadcast signals. See 17 

U.S.C. 111(d). The Copyright Royalty 

Judges (Judges) oversee distribution of 

royalties to copyright owners whose 

works were included in a qualifying 

transmission and who file a timely 

claim for royalties. 

Allocation of the royalties collected 

occurs in one of two ways. In the first 

instance, the Judges may authorize 

distribution in accordance with a 

negotiated agreement among all 

claiming parties. 17 U.S.C. 111(d)(4)(A), 

803(b)(3)(A). If all claimants do not 

reach agreement with respect to the 

royalties, the Judges must conduct a 

proceeding to determine the distribution 

of any royalties that remain in 

controversy. 17 U.S.C. 111(d)(4)(B), 

803(b)(3)(B). Alternatively, the Judges 

may, on motion of claimants and on 

notice to all interested parties, authorize 

a partial distribution of royalties, 

reserving on deposit sufficient funds to 

resolve identified disputes. 17 U.S.C. 

111(d)(4)(C), 801(b)(3)(C). 

On April 3, 2023, Worldwide Subsidy 

Group LLC dba Multigroup Claimants 

(MGC) filed with the Judges a motion 

pursuant to section 801(b)(3)(C) of the 

Copyright Act requesting a partial 

distribution amounting to $921,778 of 

the 2018 cable royalty funds on deposit, 

a partial distribution amounting to 

$963,466 of the 2019 cable royalty funds 

on deposit, and a partial distribution 

amounting to $928,162 of the 2020 cable 

royalty funds on deposit.1 That statutory 

section requires that, before ruling on 

the motion, the Judges publish a notice 

in the Federal Register seeking 

responses to the motion for partial 

distribution to ascertain whether any 

claimant entitled to receive the subject 

royalties has a reasonable objection to 

the requested distribution. 17 U.S.C. 

801(b)(3)(C). 

Accordingly, this notice seeks 

comments from interested claimants 2

on whether any reasonable objection 

exists that would preclude the 

distribution of the requested amounts of 

the 2018, 2019, and 2020 cable royalty 

funds to the requesting claimant 

representatives. Parties objecting to the 

proposed partial distribution must 

advise the Judges of the existence and 

extent of all objections by the end of the 

comment period. The Judges will not 

consider any objections with respect to 

the partial distribution that come to 

their attention after the close of the 

comment period. 

Members of the public may read the 

motion by accessing the Copyright 

Royalty Board’s electronic filing and 

case management system at https://

app.crb.gov and searching for docket 

number 19–CRB–0010–CD (2018), 20– 

CRB–0010–CD (2019), or 21–CRB–0008– 

CD (2020). 

Dated: October 19, 2023.
