Portal:Review Board of the United States Copyright Office

“ The Review Board of the United States Copyright Office (“Board”) has considered Sands Costner Inc.’s second request for reconsideration of the Registration Program’s refusal to register a two-dimensional artwork claim in the work titled “COINME” (“Work”) . After reviewing the application, deposit copy, and relevant correspondence, along with the arguments in the second requests for reconsideration, the Board affirms the Registration Program’s refusal of registration. ”

“ Though some combinations of non-protectable elements may contain sufficient creativity with respect to how they are arranged to support a copyright registration, not every combination will be numerous enough and their arrangement original enough to constitute an original work of authorship. ”
