This chapter was prepared from a presentation given by the author at the 2019 Summer School in Transnational Commercial Law & Technology, jointly sponsored by the University of Verona School of Law and the Center for International Legal Education (CILE) of the University of Pittsburgh School of Law.

A. What is ODR?
B. Who does ODR?
C. What is the legal framework for ODR?

The Continuing Evolution Of U.S. Judgments Recognition Law, Ronald A. Brand
The Continuing Evolution Of U.S. Judgments Recognition Law, Ronald A. Brand
Articles

The Institutional Role In Arbitrating Patent Disputes, Murray Lee Eiland
The Institutional Role In Arbitrating Patent Disputes, Murray Lee Eiland
Pepperdine Dispute Resolution Law Journal
This paper will address, in particular, the nature of an international patent dispute and how the rules of the main arbitral institutions influence the unfolding arbitration. The main issue considered here is if institutional rules address the particular needs of patent disputes. Arbitral institutions are prepared to resolve many kinds of disputes, but because they operate under different rules, some may be more or less prepared for the special nature of IP. Patent related disputes are even more specialized. Even small differences in institutional rules can have a large impact upon the unfolding arbitration. After a brief consideration of arbitrability, …
