Success, Dominance, And Interoperability, Alan Devlin, Michael Jacobs, Bruno Peixoto
Indiana Law Journal
In September 2007, the European Court of First Instance (CFI) ruled that Microsoft violated the European Union's competition law by failing to provide certain of its rivals with proprietary computer protocols that would have enabled them to make their products fully "interoperable" with Microsoft's dominant operating system. In the process, the court suggested that an owner of certain kinds of dominant intellectual property is obliged to share its property with rivals to the extent necessary to allow those rivals to compete "viably" with the dominant firm. Thus, in theory, should protocol sharing fail to achieve the requisite degree of "viability, …

Does One Size Fit All? A Comparative Study To Determine An Alternative To International Patent Harmonization, Rohan K. George
Does One Size Fit All? A Comparative Study To Determine An Alternative To International Patent Harmonization, Rohan K. George
Cornell Law School Inter-University Graduate Student Conference Papers
The Agreement for Trade Related Aspects of Intellectual Property Rights (TRIPS) was ratified by a majority of the countries of the world in 1994 as a precondition to membership in the World Trade Organization. Today, 153 of the countries of the world are parties to the TRIPS Agreement. The effect of the TRIPS Agreement was to create the first international substantive standards of patent harmonization, and to cause many countries to adopt intellectual property laws far stronger than they had in existence at the time. Today, the process of patent harmonization initiated with the TRIPS Agreement moves forward, through a …

La Marca Renombrada, ¿Un Obstaculo A La Libre Competencia?, Salvador Francisco Ruiz Medrano
La Marca Renombrada, ¿Un Obstaculo A La Libre Competencia?, Salvador Francisco Ruiz Medrano
Salvador Francisco Ruiz Medrano
The present investigation is the fruit of my interest in the Italian doctrine regarding well known trade marks. The Italian doctrine was based in the 1942, June 21st Decree, which for some scholars did not protect the attractive force of the well known trade mark, since such a protection would have been based not in the quality of the products and services offered, but in an absolutely irrational data, which is the suggestive capacity of the trade mark. The protection of this attractive power will not do any favor to free trade market; on the contrary, it would create monopolist …
Global Warming Trend? The Creeping Indulgence Of Fair Use In International Copyright Law, Richard J. Peltz-Steele
Global Warming Trend? The Creeping Indulgence Of Fair Use In International Copyright Law, Richard J. Peltz-Steele
Faculty Publications
In her article Toward an International Fair Use Doctrine in 2000, Professor Ruth Okediji hypothesized that the internationalization of copyright law would threaten the freedom of expression if some doctrine akin to U.S. “fair use” were not established as an international legal norm. Acknowledging the central concern of the Okediji article, this paper analyzes research and legal developments since that article to determine how the present state of the “fair use” concept in international copyright law differs from its state in 2000. The paper concludes that in the last eight years, though there has been no formal adoption of an …

Is China A ‘Currency Manipulator’?: The Legitimacy Of China’S Exchange Regime Under The Current International Legal Framework, Bryan Mercurio, Celine Sze Ning Leung
Is China A ‘Currency Manipulator’?: The Legitimacy Of China’S Exchange Regime Under The Current International Legal Framework, Bryan Mercurio, Celine Sze Ning Leung
Bryan Mercurio
While most economists are in agreement that China’s currency is undervalued, economists are less certain as to the effect of the undervaluation. Despite the equivocal data, critics of China’s regime claim that the undervaluation leads to cheaper, and therefore increased exported goods, while at the same time raising the price of imported goods. For this reason, U.S. lawmakers perpetually raise the issue and periodically initiate legislation, which would deem China a “currency manipulator” and thus trigger retaliatory measures. Lawyers are less certain whether there can be a multilateral solution to the perceived problem.
With the existing legal literature consisting mostly …
The American Models Of Technology Transfer: Contextualized Emulation By Developing Countries?, Benton C. Martin
The American Models Of Technology Transfer: Contextualized Emulation By Developing Countries?, Benton C. Martin
Benton C. Martin
Patents are an essential part of the US economy, sparked by ground-breaking legislation, the Bayh-Dole Act and the Stevenson-Wydler Technology Innovation Act, which allowed ownership of technology resulting from research funded by the federal government, though it is far from clear whether this same type of legislation would benefit developing countries. Yet because of the legislation’s success in the United States, developing countries are increasingly adopting the same approach. Thus, studying how this legislation might be adopted by developing countries is an important topic. This article emphasized that that these two particular pieces of legislation have been tailored to specific …

The Role Of The Office Of The Administrative Law Judges Within The United States International Trade Commission, 8 J. Marshall Rev. Intell. Prop. L. 216 (2009), Carl C. Charneski
UIC Review of Intellectual Property Law
Section 337 of the Tariff Act of 1930 makes unlawful, specifically, the importation of products that infringe intellectual property rights. The U.S. International Trade Commission (“ITC”) is the forum in which all section 337 proceedings are adjudicated and, within the ITC, the Office of Administrative Law Judges handles all these proceedings. Section 337 cases can be exceedingly complex and technical, and the Administrative Law Judges (“ALJ”) are the initial triers of fact, administrators, and decision makers in every case. Thus, the amount of work that the ALJs—along with their staff—must meet to see these cases to completion can be substantial. …
Of Silos And Constellations: Comparing Notions Of Originality In Copyright Law, Daniel J. Gervais, Elizabeth F. Judge
Of Silos And Constellations: Comparing Notions Of Originality In Copyright Law, Daniel J. Gervais, Elizabeth F. Judge
Vanderbilt Law School Faculty Publications
Originality is a central theme in the efforts to understand human evolution, thinking, innovation, and creativity. Artists strive to be "original," however the term is understood by each of them. It is also one of the major concepts in copyright law. This paper considers the evolution of the notion of originality since 2002 (when one of the coauthors published an article entitled Feist Goes Global: A Comparative Analysis Of The Notion Of Originality In Copyright Law) and continues the analysis, in particular whether the notion of "creative choices," which seems to have substantial normative heft in several jurisdictions, is optimal …
The Public Policy Exception To Recognition And Enforcement Of Judgments In Cases Of Copyright Infringement, Marketa Trimble
The Public Policy Exception To Recognition And Enforcement Of Judgments In Cases Of Copyright Infringement, Marketa Trimble
Scholarly Works
In recent years proposals have been made for an international convention that would facilitate a smooth recognition and enforcement of foreign judgments in intellectual property matters. Like all of these proposals, the American Law Institute’s preliminary version, short titled "Draft Principles" published in March 2007, strives to eliminate most hurdles to recognition and enforcement by providing rules for jurisdiction, choice of law and coordination of multi-territorial actions. As long as the rules are applied by the court that issues a judgment (the “rendering court”), most of the obstacles to recognition and enforcement − differing jurisdictional rules and choice of law …
Cross-Border Injunctions In U.S. Patent Cases And Their Enforcement Abroad, Marketa Trimble
Cross-Border Injunctions In U.S. Patent Cases And Their Enforcement Abroad, Marketa Trimble
Scholarly Works
In surveying recent literature on difficulties with cross-border injunctions in patent cases, one may conclude that the problem appears to be limited to the phenomenon of pan-European injunctions granted by some courts in Europe in cases concerning infringements of foreign patents. However, even in cases concerning domestic patents, injunctions reaching beyond national borders can be issued; the empirical evidence presented in the paper demonstrates a variety of such instances in U.S. patent cases. Certainly the existence of such injunctions in the U.S. raises concerns about their enforceability in other countries, particularly when they are issued against a foreign entity that …
Solutions For Disputes Over Intellectual Property Between Taiwan And China – Analyzing Arbitration, Szu-Chou Peng, Fu-Jung Wu
Solutions For Disputes Over Intellectual Property Between Taiwan And China – Analyzing Arbitration, Szu-Chou Peng, Fu-Jung Wu
Barry Law Review
Increasing business transactions between Taiwan and China have caused international intellectual property disputes to become a new and serious problem for Taiwanese businessmen who have direct and indirect investments in trade. In order to solve this problem, Taiwan and China sequentially set special regulations. For example, section 74 of the Act Governing Relations between Peoples of the Taiwan Area and the Mainland Area was enacted by the government of Taiwan to recognize China’s civil arbitration procedures. On July 23, 2004, China established the Regulations of the Supreme People’s Court Regarding the People’s Courts’ Recognition of the Civil Judgments Rendered by …
Of Clusters And Assumptions: Innovation As Part Of A Full Trips Implementation, Daniel J. Gervais
Of Clusters And Assumptions: Innovation As Part Of A Full Trips Implementation, Daniel J. Gervais
Vanderbilt Law School Faculty Publications
Because TRIPS introduced a high(er) level of intellectual property protection in a number of developing countries, it provides an opportunity to examine the impact of the introduction of (property) rights on a variety of intangibles in legal systems from which those rights were absent. One question is whether, and if so how, 18th century European rules, updated in concert with other Western nations until 1989, can be successfully integrated into the social, cultural, economic and legal fabric of dozens of developing nations, and how success is measured in that context. TRIPS also allows us to consider the impact of high(er) …
Contracts, Orphan Works, And Copyright Norms: What Role For Berne And Trips?, Jane C. Ginsburg
Contracts, Orphan Works, And Copyright Norms: What Role For Berne And Trips?, Jane C. Ginsburg
Faculty Scholarship
This Chapter addresses the extremes of private ordering, and the extent to which the principal multilateral copyright instruments, the Berne Convention and the TRIPs Accord, limit the range of State responses to the problems encountered at the far ends of the copyright-contract spectrum. At one end, we encounter private ordering at its most aggressive, in which private parties enter into agreements (or, more likely, the stronger party coerces the weaker parties, who may be mass market consumers) to protect subject matter or rights excluded from the ambit of copyright's exclusivity. At the other end, the difficulties arise not from overweening …

The Distinctive Characteristics Of Section 337, 8 J. Marshall Rev. Intell. Prop. L. 231 (2009), Jay H. Reiziss
UIC Review of Intellectual Property Law
In an investigation by the International Trade Commission (“ITC” or “Commission”) under Section 337 of the Tariff Act of 1930 (“Section 337”) a complainant must satisfy two unique statutory criteria. First, a complainant must establish that the ITC has jurisdiction, usually by showing importation of an accused product. Second, a complainant must demonstrate that a domestic industry exists or is in the process of being established. A practitioner can be assured that the ITC’s jurisdiction is expansive and reaches foreign-based activities that affect U.S. commerce. Such actions can involve any unfair act and can be brought regardless of whether personal …
Post-Litigation Enforcement Of Remedial Orders Issued By The U.S. International Trade Commission In Section 337 Investigations, 8 J. Marshall Rev. Intell. Prop. L. 248 (2009), Merritt R. Blakeslee
Post-Litigation Enforcement Of Remedial Orders Issued By The U.S. International Trade Commission In Section 337 Investigations, 8 J. Marshall Rev. Intell. Prop. L. 248 (2009), Merritt R. Blakeslee
UIC Review of Intellectual Property Law
There is a common misperception that enforcement of International Trade Commission (“ITC”) remedial orders is automatic and self implementing. In reality, such remedial orders are not self-implementing, are less-than-perfect enforcement tools, and their effective enforcement carries with it a number of practical difficulties. This paper explores the realities of enforcing the ITC’s remedial orders – exclusion orders, consent orders, and cease-and-desist orders – with the goal of giving both complainants and respondents a heightened appreciation of the tactics and strategies that can be effectively deployed following the conclusion of a Section 337 investigation and the issuance of one or more …

The U.S. International Trade Commission's Growing Role In The Global Economy, 8 J. Marshall Rev. Intell. Prop. L. 290 (2009), Patricia Larios
UIC Review of Intellectual Property Law
The widespread offshoring of manufacturing operations has created dramatic efficiencies and meaningful cost savings for many U.S. businesses. But as an unintended consequence, the move to foreign manufacturing also has created challenges to the U.S. patent system and its ability to protect American businesses from infringing competition. U.S. District Courts are frequently an inadequate forum for litigating patent infringement suits involving an accused device manufactured abroad because of the difficulties associated with obtaining jurisdiction and proving infringement. Patent holders faced with such a situation, however, are not left without recourse. This article explores the different enforcement mechanisms available in the …
Compulsory Licensing Of Patented Pharmaceutical Inventions: Evaluating The Options, Jerome H. Reichman
Compulsory Licensing Of Patented Pharmaceutical Inventions: Evaluating The Options, Jerome H. Reichman
Faculty Scholarship
In this Comment, the author traces the relevant legislative history pertaining to compulsory licensing of patented pharmaceuticals from the TRIPS Agreement of 1994 to the 2003 waiver to, and later proposed amendment of, article 31, which enables poor countries to obtain needed medicines from other countries that possess manufacturing capacity. The Comment then evaluates recent, controversial uses of the relevant legislative machinery as viewed from different critical perspectives. The Comment shows how developing countries seeking access to esential medicines can collaborate in ways that would avoid undermining incentives to innovation and other social costs attributed to compulsory licensing. It ends …
