Re: Claim Number: OQ993N    FRE 408 Settlement Communication
. 
The letter goes on to say: Dear Sir or Madam,   The Law Firm of Higbee & Associates represents Nature Picture Library.  After making several unsuccessful efforts to resolve a copyright matter (PicRights Claim Number 377588750484) with West Saint Paul Antiques, Nature Picture Library has now hired our law firm to pursue this claim. We hope that we will resolve this matter without going to court.  You may wish to hire an attorney and forward this matter to them.   "This section(s) has changed a little bit to a lot since the first letter September 19th, 2018 for Claim Number: 516719" This letter goes on to say.
.
Please see the attached exhibits that show the use of the copyrighted works and the alleged infringing use.  If West Saint Paul Antiques has a license to use the image, please let us know so that we can close this case and apologize for the inconvenience. you can email me at claims@higbeeassociates.com.

In some instances, the business owner can be held individually liable. We are enclosed relevant sections with this letter so that you can see the potential damages.
.
Our client is now asking that West Saint Paul Antiques pay $2000 to settle this matter. This amount takes into account the normal licensing fee, the costs incurred in detecting and pursuing the unauthorized use, and the nature of the use. If you believe there are factors that should make this amount lower, or justify withdrwal of this claim, please let us know by calling us or sending us an email. We welcome the opportunity to have a discussion about the matter.
