The Internet, Personal Jurisdiction, And Daos, Matthew R. Mcguire
The Internet, Personal Jurisdiction, And Daos, Matthew R. Mcguire
Washington and Lee Law Review
Global connectivity is at an all-time high, and sovereign state law has not fully caught up with the technological innovations enabling that connectivity. TCP/IP—the communications protocol allowing computers on different networks to speak with each other—wasn’t adopted by ARPANET and the Defense Data Network until January 1983. That’s only forty years ago. And the World Wide Web wasn’t released to the general public until August 1991, less than thirty-five years ago. The first Bitcoin block was mined on January 3, 2009, less than fifteen years ago.
Legal doctrine doesn’t develop that fast, especially in legal systems heavily based around judicial …
The Justiciability Of Cancelled Patents, Greg Reilly
The Justiciability Of Cancelled Patents, Greg Reilly
Washington and Lee Law Review
The recent expansion of the Patent Office’s power to invalidate issued patents raises a coordination problem when there is concurrent litigation, particularly where the federal courts have already upheld the patent’s validity. The Federal Circuit has concluded that Patent Office cancellation extinguishes litigation pending at any stage and requires vacating prior decisions in the case. This rule is widely criticized on doctrinal, policy, and separation of powers grounds. Yet the Federal Circuit has reached (almost) the right outcome, except for the wrong reasons. Both the Federal Circuit and its critics overlook that the Federal Circuit’s rule reflects a straightforward application …
Personal Jurisdiction And National Sovereignty, Ray Worthy Campbell
Personal Jurisdiction And National Sovereignty, Ray Worthy Campbell
Washington and Lee Law Review
State sovereignty, once seemingly sidelined in personal jurisdiction analysis, has returned with a vengeance. Driven by the idea that states must not offend rival states in their jurisdictional reach, some justices have looked for specific targeting of individual states as individual states by the defendant in order to justify an assertion of personal jurisdiction. To allow cases to proceed based on national targeting alone, they argue, would diminish the sovereignty of any state that the defendant had specifically targeted.
This Article looks for the first time at how this emphasis on state sovereignty limits national sovereignty, especially where alien defendants …
Categorical Confusion In Personal Jurisdiction Law, Todd Peterson
Categorical Confusion In Personal Jurisdiction Law, Todd Peterson
Washington and Lee Law Review
In Part I, the Article discusses the history of the U.S. Supreme Court’s substantive due process limitations on personal jurisdiction and, in particular, the standards for corporate-activities-based jurisdiction before the Court’s recent cases on that issue. Part II discusses the Court’s failure to provide a convincing theoretical justification for imposing substantive due process limitations on personal jurisdiction. It also discusses the consequences of that failure in three doctrinal areas of personal jurisdiction law, the traditional basis of service on an individual in the forum state, specific jurisdiction and corporate-activities-based jurisdiction. Part III then analyzes in detail the four recent Supreme …
