Oscar,
First another great big thank you for attending to the questions on this website.
My question. I live in the US and knowing that their demand would probably never go to court, but if it did - and I lost - could I be liable for other costs beyond the amount of the amount they are asking for the picture (like their court costs)? Their demand letter seems to imply this and I just wanted to know the total potential "theoretical" risks of ignoring their demand and calls.
My situation: I've got one $1,200 demand on an image I believe is not infringing but I cannot locate the subcontractor that used the picture 6 years ago. Took down the picture right away, etc. etc.
Thanks
Dave
