Section 10(B) And The Vagaries Of Federal Common Law: The Merits Of Codifying The Private Cause Of Action Under A Structuralist Approach, Edward A. Fallone

Faculty Publications

Few issues in the field of securities law have proved as controversial as the legitimacy and proper application of the implied private cause of action for securities fraud under Section 10(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and its regulatory counterpart, Rule 10b-5. The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 was expected by many observers to bring about sweeping changes in the implied private cause of action, which critics charge has been abused by overzealous litigants bringing frivolous lawsuits.

Kwall details the effectiveness of the Act in a society that has not traditionally recognized such rights. Professor Kwall examines the many flaws of VARA and supports further legislation to strengthen the protection of artists' moral rights.

The European "Community Trade Mark": Is It Worth The Bother?, Daniel G. Radler

Marquette Intellectual Property Law Review

In growing regional societies such as the European Union, there is a recognized need for standardization of trademark protection. Radler discusses the recent creation of the "Community Trade Mark" ("CTM") and analyzes the pros, the cons, and the alternatives to regional trademark protection within the EU. Concluding that the CTM is the most appropriate alternative, Radler suggests that the CTM provides uniformity, efficiency, and a means for further harmonization.
