The International Trade Commission: Potential Bias, Hold-Up, And The Need For Reform, William Dolan
The International Trade Commission: Potential Bias, Hold-Up, And The Need For Reform, William Dolan
Duke Law & Technology Review
The International Trade Commission (ITC) is an alternate venue for holders of U.S. patents to pursue litigation against infringing products produced abroad and imported to the United States. Because the ITC may only grant injunctive relief, it has awarded injunctions in situations where there may have been better and more efficient remedies to the infringement available through litigation in federal district court. The increased likelihood of injunctive relief bolsters the position of patent holders against a wide range of producers in royalty negotiations and can harm the end consumers through a process known as "patent hold-up." There are currently sweeping …

The Ncaa’S Lost Cause And The Legal Ease Of Redefining Amateurism, Virginia A. Fitt
The Ncaa’S Lost Cause And The Legal Ease Of Redefining Amateurism, Virginia A. Fitt
Duke Law Journal
The recent resolution of the Andrew Oliver case may mark the death throes of the NCAA's no-agent rule, prohibiting college athletes from retaining agents in professional contract negotiations, and perhaps the traditional paradigm of amateurism in sport. In light of the trial court's ruling, as well as continuing calls for the revocation of the NCAA's tax-exempt status, the time is ripe for a reexamination of amateurism and the law. This Note argues that the NCAA has developed a complicated web of largely unenforceable rules and regulations that are unnecessary to maintain tax-exempt status in light of the regulatory environment. This …
Not Peace, But A Sword: Navy V. Egan And The Case Against Judicial Abdication In Foreign Affairs, Jason Rathod
Not Peace, But A Sword: Navy V. Egan And The Case Against Judicial Abdication In Foreign Affairs, Jason Rathod
Duke Law Journal
In the United States' system of separation of powers, the judiciary must safeguard the rights of individuals from abuses by the political branches of government. Yet, when it comes to matters touching foreign affairs, scholars such as John Yoo and jurists such as Antonin Scalia argue that the executive branch is entitled to virtually unreviewable discretion. They point to Navy v. Egan for support. There, the Court held that an administrative body that hears appeals from adverse actions against government employees was precluded from reviewing the merits of security clearance determinations because the executive branch deserves "super-strong" deference in foreign …

Cybersieves, Derek E. Bambauer
Duke Law Journal
This Article offers a process-based method to assess Internet censorship that is compatible with different value sets about what content should be blocked. Whereas China's Internet censorship receives considerable attention, censorship in the United States and other democratic countries is largely ignored. The Internet is increasingly fragmented by nations' different value judgments about what content is unacceptable. Countries differ not in their intent to censor material-from political dissent in Iran to copyrighted songs in America-but in the content they target, how precisely they block it, and how involved their citizens are in these choices. Previous scholars have analyzed Internet censorship …
The Limits Of Advocacy, Amanda Frost
The Limits Of Advocacy, Amanda Frost
Duke Law Journal
Party control over case presentation is regularly cited as a defining characteristic of the American adversarial system. Accordingly, American judges are strongly discouraged from engaging in so-called "issue creation"-that is, raising legal claims and arguments that the parties have overlooked or ignored-on the ground that doing so is antithetical to an adversarial legal culture that values litigant autonomy and prohibits agenda setting by judges. And yet, despite the rhetoric, federal judges regularly inject new legal issues into ongoing cases. Landmark Supreme Court decisions such as Erie Railroad Co. v. Tompkins and Mapp v. Ohio were decided on grounds never raised …
Constitutional Limits On Private Policing And The State’S Allocation Of Force, M. Rhead Enion
Constitutional Limits On Private Policing And The State’S Allocation Of Force, M. Rhead Enion
Duke Law Journal
This Note argues that a variety of "private police" forces, such as university patrols and residential security guards, should. be held to the constitutional limitations found in the Bill of Rights. These private police act as arms of the state by supplying force in response to a public demand for order and security. The state, as sovereign, retains responsibility to allocate force, in the form of either public or private police, in response to public demand. This state responsibility-a facet of its police power-is evidenced throughout English and American history. When this force responds to a public demand for order …

Lenz V. Universal Music Corp. And The Potential Effect Of Fair Use Analysis Under The Takedown Procedures Of §512 Of The Dmca, Kathleen O’Donnell
Duke Law & Technology Review
The notice and takedown/putback procedures in §512 of the Digital Millennium Act fail to adequately protect the rights of individuals who post content on the internet. This iBrief examines the notice and takedown/putback procedures and Judge Fogel's decision in Lenz v. Universal Music Corp., which requires a copyright owner to conduct a fair use evaluation prior to issuing a takedown notice. This iBrief concludes such a requirement is an appropriate first step towards creating adequate protection for user-generated content on the Internet.

A Hypothetical Non-Infringing Network: An Examination Of The Efficacy Of Safe Harbor In Section 512(C) Of The Dmca, Cassius Sims
Duke Law & Technology Review
This iBrief will present a hypothetical network that allows dissidents to transfer information outside the watchful eye of an oppressive government. It will argue that because a network operator meets the requirements of the safe harbor of section 512(c) of the Digital Millennium Copyright Act, the hosts of the network are immune from any vicarious copyright liability.

Prioritizing Professional Responsibility And The Legal Profession: A Preview Of The United States Supreme Court’S 2009–2010 Term, Renee Newman Knake
Duke Journal of Constitutional Law & Public Policy Sidebar
This term, the Supreme Court is scheduled to hear ten cases on the role of attorneys and the practice of law. In doing so, the Court is departing from its normal practice of hearing two, or at most three, cases on professional responsibility. Prof. Renee Knake of Michigan State University College of Law reviews the professional responsibility cases on the Court's docket and examines how they could influence the practice of law.

Living Originalism, Thomas B. Colby, Peter J. Smith
Living Originalism, Thomas B. Colby, Peter J. Smith
Duke Law Journal
Originalists routinely argue that originalism is the only coherent and legitimate theory of constitutional interpretation. This Article endeavors to undermine those claims by demonstrating that, despite the suggestion of originalist rhetoric, originalism is not a single, coherent, unified theory of constitutional interpretation, but is rather a disparate collection of distinct constitutional theories that share little more than a misleading reliance on a common label. Originalists generally agree only on certain very broad precepts that serve as the fundamental underlying principles of constitutional interpretation: specifically, that the "writtenness" of the Constitution necessitates a fixed constitutional meaning, and that courts that see …
Reasonableness Meets Requirements: Regulating Security And Privacy In Software, Paul N. Otto
Reasonableness Meets Requirements: Regulating Security And Privacy In Software, Paul N. Otto
Duke Law Journal
Software security and privacy issues regularly grab headlines amid fears of identity theft, data breaches, and threats to security. Policymakers have responded with a variety of approaches to combat such risk. Suggested measures include promulgation of strict rules, enactment of open-ended standards, and, at times, abstention in favor of allowing market forces to intervene. This Note lays out the basis for understanding how both policymakers and engineers should proceed in an increasingly software-dependent society. After explaining what distinguishes software-based systems from other objects of regulation, this Note argues that policymakers should pursue standards-based approaches to regulating software security and privacy. …
Making Amends: Amending The Icsid Convention To Reconcile Competing Interests In International Investment Law, Kate M. Supnik
Making Amends: Amending The Icsid Convention To Reconcile Competing Interests In International Investment Law, Kate M. Supnik
Duke Law Journal
Globalization has increased international investment activity, but no unified legal framework governs international investments. After several attempts to establish a multilateral investment framework, prospective parties remain unable to reach a consensus on a viable system to address investor and state rights. Developed, capital-exporting states wish to protect their citizens' investments, whereas developing states simultaneously seek to attract investments and maintain regulatory autonomy. In the absence of a comprehensive agreement, bilateral investment treaties serve as the primary legal instruments setting forth the terms of cross-border investments. These treaties often grant private investors the right to file claims before the International Centre …
The Future Of “Fair And Balanced”: The Fairness Doctrine, Net Neutrality, And The Internet, Sasha Leonhardt
The Future Of “Fair And Balanced”: The Fairness Doctrine, Net Neutrality, And The Internet, Sasha Leonhardt
Duke Law & Technology Review
In recent months, different groups--pundits, politicians, and even an FCC Commissioner--have discussed resurrecting the now-defunct Fairness Doctrine and applying it to Internet communication. This iBrief responds to the novel application of the Doctrine to the Internet in three parts. First, this iBrief will review the history and legal rationale that supported the Fairness Doctrine, with a particular emphasis on emerging technologies. Second, this iBrief applies these legal arguments to the evolving structure of the Internet. Third, this iBrief will consider what we can learn about Net Neutrality through an analogy to the Fairness Doctrine. This iBrief concludes that, while the …
