Translating Legal Terms In Context, Antoinette M. Sedillo Lopez

Faculty Scholarship

This article reviews a number of Spanish/English legal dictionaries, evaluating the relative merits and features of each. Translating legal terms requires an understanding of both the legal context in which the term is used and the legal context in which the translation is intended. Thus, this review of legal dictionaries concentrates on evaluating the authors'/editors' understanding of how the terms are used in the two legal cultures, as well as in two different languages.

The Death Of Ontology: A Teleological Approach To Trademark Law, Graeme Dinwoodie

All Faculty Scholarship

In recent years, U.S. courts have recognized that a wide (and potentially limitless) range of subject matter may act as a trademark.

This article addresses how trademark law should adapt to the reality that consumers identify and distinguish products using a range of symbols other than the traditional forms of words and pictorial images. I contend that, in order to regulate effectively the present-day marketplace, trademark law must recognize …
