Increased Market Power As A New Secondary Consideration In Patent Law A Review Of Recent Decisions Of The United States Court Of Appeals For The Federal Circuit, Andrew Blair-Stanek
American University Law Review
Courts have developed several non-technical “secondary considerations” to help judges and juries in patent litigation decide whether a patent meets the crucial statutory requirement that a patent be non-obvious. This Article proposes a tenth secondary consideration to help judges and juries: increased market power. If a patent measurably increases its holders’ market power in the market into which it sells products or services, then that increase should weigh in favor of finding the patent non-obvious. Using increased market power incorporates the predictive benefits of several other secondary considerations, while often increasing the accuracy and availability of evidence. It would provide …

In 2008, the United States Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit issued eight trademark decisions and designated one of those eight decisions as precedential. These numbers are significantly lower than in recent years. The cases consist of appeals from the Trademark Trial and Appeal Board (“TTAB”), the United States Court of International Trade, and the United States Court of Federal Claims. Of the eight trademark decisions, four focused on substantive issues and four primarily involved procedural issues. The Federal Circuit generally adopted the findings of the lower tribunals, affirming all but one of the eight decisions on appeal. The …

American University Law Review
The United States is the world’s largest importing country, with nearly $2 trillion in imports of goods during 2007. Given the ever- increasing volume of international trade, the United States has put in place an intricate body of laws designed to regulate the flow of goods and has created federal agencies responsible for the enforcement of those laws, including U.S. Customs and Border Protection (“CBP”), the U.S. Department of Commerce (“Commerce”), the U.S. International Trade Commission (“ITC” or “Commission”), and the Office of the U.S. Trade Representative (“USTR”). Each agency is charged with different responsibilities over the fair and efficient …

The United States Supreme Court took a slight breather from patent-law issues in 2008. After issuing three patent-law decisions in 2007 (including KSR International Co. v. Teleflex Inc.), the Court issued just one patent-law decision in 2008—Quanta Computer, Inc. v. LG Electronics, Inc. Despite the Supreme Court’s slower pace, however, the Court’s influence loomed large in the United States Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit in 2008. In a number of cases, the Federal Circuit continued to work through the implications of the Supreme Court’s recent precedents, most notably KSR and the Supreme Court’s 2006 decision in eBay Inc. …
