5. Given that an infringer has been selling within your own country (Country A) her domestically-produced illegitimate copies of your Number One selling song, which one of the following four choices would normally be the first action you would take to enforce your copyright?

a) Seek in civil court an action for economic injury against the infringer.

b) Approach the TRIPS Council for registering an infringement.

c) Where available, demonstrate to the proper judicial authorities that an infringement has occurred and that provisional measures be taken, without notice to the infringer, to prevent further entry of the infringing goods into commerce.

d) Request from neighboring countries D and J that they institute border controls to

stop importation from country A of the infringing items.

If it's all taking place within your own country (Country A), how are other countries involved?

Seek in civil court an action for economic injury against the infringer.

The correct answer would be c) Where available, demonstrate to the proper judicial authorities that an infringement has occurred and that provisional measures be taken, without notice to the infringer, to prevent further entry of the infringing goods into commerce.

To enforce your copyright in this scenario, the first action you would typically take is to demonstrate to the proper judicial authorities that an infringement has occurred. This would involve gathering evidence of the infringing activity, such as proof that the infringer has been selling domestically-produced illegitimate copies of your Number One selling song.

Once you have gathered sufficient evidence, you would present it to the judicial authorities and request that provisional measures be taken. These provisional measures typically involve preventing further entry of the infringing goods into commerce. In some cases, these measures can be taken without prior notice to the infringer, ensuring that they cannot continue their infringing activities while the legal proceedings are ongoing.

Options a) and b) are not typically the first actions taken to enforce copyright. Seeking an action for economic injury in civil court (a) would usually come later in the process after the infringement has been proven. Approaching the TRIPS Council for registering an infringement (b) is not a common initial step in enforcing copyright within a specific country.

Option d) may be a possible action to take, but it is not the first action. Requesting neighboring countries to institute border controls to stop importation from Country A of the infringing items would be a measure taken to prevent the entry of infringing goods from outside your country. In this scenario, the infringement is already occurring within your own country (Country A), so measures such as the one mentioned in option c) would be more appropriate.
