Inevitable Imbalance: Why Ftc V. Actavis Was Inadequate To Solve The Reverse Payment Settlement Problem And Proposing A New Amendment To The Hatch-Waxman Act, Rachel A. Lewis Sep 2014

Inevitable Imbalance: Why Ftc V. Actavis Was Inadequate To Solve The Reverse Payment Settlement Problem And Proposing A New Amendment To The Hatch-Waxman Act, Rachel A. Lewis

Seattle University Law Review

The law regarding reverse payment settlements is anything but settled. Reverse payment settlements are settlements that occur during a patent infringement litigation in which a pharmaceutical patent holder pays a generic drug producer to not infringe on the pharmaceutical patent. Despite the recent decision by the United States Supreme Court in FTC v. Actavis, Inc., there are still unanswered questions about how the “full rule of reason” analysis will be applied to reverse payment. This Comment argues that despite the outcome in Actavis, the complex regulatory framework of the Hatch–Waxman Act will create repeated conflicts between antitrust law and patent …

Patent Club Convergence Among Nations, Daniel Benoliel Jan 2014

Patent Club Convergence Among Nations, Daniel Benoliel

Marquette Intellectual Property Law Review

The article uncovers profound empirical and conceptual shortcomings concerning the "one-size-fits-all" innovation and intellectual property-related policies used internationally. These policies surely are funneled by the World Trade Organization (WTO) and the Agreement on Trade Related Aspects of Intellectual Property Rights (TRIPS) or the World Intellectual Property Organization’s (WIPO) archetypical Development Agenda. The article offers a novel delineation of these policies vis-à-vis distinct country groups or “convergence clubs.”

In so doing, the article offers a unique statistical model carrying out hierarchal cluster analyses for sixty-six innovating countries twice during the 1996–2011 time series period. The model detects country groups that are …

Food For Thought: Genetically Modified Seeds As De Facto Standard-Essential Patents, Benjamin M. Cole, Brent J. Horton, Ryan Vacca Jan 2014

Food For Thought: Genetically Modified Seeds As De Facto Standard-Essential Patents, Benjamin M. Cole, Brent J. Horton, Ryan Vacca

University of Colorado Law Review

For several years, courts have improperly calculated damages in cases involving the unlicensed use of genetically modified (GM) seed technology. In particular, when courts determine patent damages based on the hypothetical negotiation method, they err in exaggerating these damages to a point where no rational negotiator would agree. In response, we propose a limited affirmative defense of an implied license due to the patent's status as a de facto standard-essential patent. To be classified as a de facto standard-essential patent, the farmer must prove three elements that reflect the peculiarities of GM seeds used in farming: (1) dominance, (2) impracticability, …
