Why is Copyright, of all things, exempt from the federal statute of limitations?<p>Are federal CSA cases exempted from the federal statute of limitations then?<p>For CSA cases, e.g. California has: two (2) years from when the victim remembers IIUC?
The title is not accurate.<p>The Court clarified that the time limit is 3 years from discovering the infringement, not 3 years from when the infringement took place.
Unfortunately, this is probably the correct decision. It's not the SCOTUS's job to determine what a "good" law versus a "bad" law is, unless it directly violates the constitution - which, when the constitution specifically says copyright is acceptable, and says nothing about a requirement for any statute of limitations, this clearly isn't.
No time limit for copyright claims but very strict limits for anything to do with labour rights - and they still keep telling us it's a country of laws.
