Alla:

The better choice of words would be that your statement is a simplified 
generalisation of course.

The bottom line is that I have no clue how it works in copyright law, 
but in no-fault law plaintiff's burden is so very LOW that it is not 
even funny, we often joke that all that plaintiffs have to win a case 
is show up. It is a joke of course but there is a part of truth in 
every joke. Defendant's burden is EXTREMELY high.
