Federal district courts can stop violations of the seal rules in section 179q. Normally the only remedy is removing the improper seal from the film. If someone repeatedly and willfully breaks the rules, courts may also order a fine up to $10,000 and an injunction.

(a) Jurisdiction Federal district courts have the power, when good cause is shown, to prevent and stop violations of the seal rules in section 179q(a). (b) Relief (1) Removal of seal: except as described in paragraph (2), the only remedy for violating section 179q(a) is removing the National Film Registry seal from the film involved. (2) Fine and injunctive relief: if there is a pattern or practice of willfully violating section 179q(a), a federal district court may also order a civil fine of up to $10,000 and appropriate injunctive relief (a court order stopping the conduct).
