In this case, Sherman Nealy claimed that Warner Chappell Music had been using songs he co-owned without his permission since 2008.

The Supreme Court held that a copyright owner with a timely claim for infringement is entitled to damages, regardless of when the infringement occurred. This means that if a plaintiff discovers the infringement within three years before filing the lawsuit, they can seek damages for all infringing activities, even those that happened more than three years before the discovery1.
