Trademark Assignment “With Goodwill”: A Concept Whose Time Has Gone, Irene Calboli Jan 2005

Trademark Assignment “With Goodwill”: A Concept Whose Time Has Gone, Irene Calboli

Faculty Publications

Historically, starting from the premise that trademark protection is about consumer welfare, trademark law has required trademarks to be assigned with the goodwill of the business to which they refer, to deter assignees from changing the quality of the marked products. Yet, ever since its adoption, this rule has been hard to enforce because it hinges on a concept that is ambiguous and difficult to frame in a legislative context: trademark goodwill. Additionally, regardless of this rule, trading in trademarks has been a recurrent practice in the business world, and trademark practices have traditionally provided instruments to assist this trade. …

Marquette Intellectual Property Law Review

Professor Dinwoodie discusses the Rehnquist Supreme Court and its current approach to addressing trademark jurisprudence.

What Are You Looking At? Eliminating Consideration Of The General Public And The Ultimate Question In A Trade Dress Initial Interest Confusion Analysis., Paul J. Krause Jul 2004

What Are You Looking At? Eliminating Consideration Of The General Public And The Ultimate Question In A Trade Dress Initial Interest Confusion Analysis., Paul J. Krause

Marquette Intellectual Property Law Review

This comment addresses the concept of initial interest confusion in trade dress law and examines several different courts' approaches to the doctrine. Through the discussion, it becomes evident that while being careful to avoid bypassing an analysis of the likelihood of confusion factors, courts should also use the doctrine to determine confusion of potential purchasers. Failing to account for certain factors, such as the sophistication of the relevant consumer group, may allow courts to skew the likelihood of confusion factors in an initial interest confusion analysis. In sum, the author argues that courts should conduct a thorough analysis of likelihood …

The author overviews the P2P technology and details tactics being used by copyright holders to protect their works on the P2P networks. The author next analyzes various legal issues surrounding the copyright-protection tactics. The author concludes by examining proposed legislation designed to benefit copyright holders and asserts that Congressional intervention enabling sabotage tactics will not solve the P2P problem because such retaliatory measures will only worsen the situation by aggravating music lovers.

Market Definition In Intellectual Property Law: Should Intellectual Property Courts Use An Antitrust Approach To Market Definition?, Anna F. Kingsbury Jan 2004

Market Definition In Intellectual Property Law: Should Intellectual Property Courts Use An Antitrust Approach To Market Definition?, Anna F. Kingsbury

Marquette Intellectual Property Law Review

In her Article, Ms. Kingsbury notes that American courts do not use antitrust law's market definition approach in intellectual property cases. She discusses five potential rationales for this dichotomy: (1) intellectual property cases involve new products without defined markets; (2) market definition limits judicial flexibility; (3) courts do not want to burden intellectual property litigants with the time and expense of economic evidence; (4) judges reason from precedent, and that precedent did not consider market definition; and (5) "market" conveys a different meaning in intellectual property law than it does in antitrust law. Kingsbury presents counterarguments to these rationales and …

Protection For Indigenous Peoples And Their Traditional Knowledge: Would A Registry System Reduce The Misappropriation Of Traditional Knowledge?, Thomas J, Krumenacher Jan 2004

Protection For Indigenous Peoples And Their Traditional Knowledge: Would A Registry System Reduce The Misappropriation Of Traditional Knowledge?, Thomas J, Krumenacher

Marquette Intellectual Property Law Review

This Comment examines the controversy over whether a registry system is the best way to prevent Western inventors from obtaining intellectual property protection for traditional knowledge that has been misappropriated from underdeveloped parts of the world. This dilemma exists because traditional knowledge often constitutes patentable subject matter, most indigenous peoples do not subscribe to a Western "property rights" view of the world, and exploitation of traditional knowledge has become easier through improved communication capabilities. This Comment argues in favor of a registry system to catalog traditional knowledge; patent examiners would deny patent protection to any invention that replicates traditional knowledge. …


Patenting The Biological Bounty Of Nature: Re-Examining The Status Of Organic Inventions As Patentable Subject Matter, Burton T. Ong Jan 2004

Patenting The Biological Bounty Of Nature: Re-Examining The Status Of Organic Inventions As Patentable Subject Matter, Burton T. Ong

Marquette Intellectual Property Law Review

Mr. Ong discusses the controversy regarding biotechnology patents. Opponents of biotechnology patents are concerned that these patents show disrespect for life and nature, expropriate the traditional knowledge of indigenous communities, and encourage practices that threaten the environment. Proponents of biotechnology patents argue that patents are, at worst, neutral on such issues because they only grant a right to exclude; moreover, such patents encourage innovation in the public interest. Ong focuses instead on whether an individual inventor deserves an intellectual property right based on his contributions to a modified living organism or an organic substance derived from a living organism. He …


Trade Dress: Should Only The Secondary Meaning Trade Dress Standard Apply To Product Packaging? Or Should Courts Continue To Use The Inherently Distinctive Standard?, Jennifer L. Barwinski Jan 2004

Trade Dress: Should Only The Secondary Meaning Trade Dress Standard Apply To Product Packaging? Or Should Courts Continue To Use The Inherently Distinctive Standard?, Jennifer L. Barwinski

Marquette Intellectual Property Law Review

This Comment discusses the controversy over whether secondary meaning should be a prerequisite for trademark protection of product packaging, in light of Wal-Mart Stores, Inc. v. Samara Bros. The United States Supreme Court held in Wal-Mart that secondary meaning is a prerequisite for trademark protection of product design, limiting its earlier decision in Two Pesos, Inc. v. Taco Cabana, Inc. In discussing Wal-Mart's application to trademark protection for product packaging, this Comment focuses on the difficulty of distinguishing between product packaging and product design. This Comment argues that secondary meaning should be a prerequisite for trademark protection of product packaging; …


Counting Down Another Music Marathon: Copyright Arbitration Royalty Panels And The Case Of Internet Radio, Sara J. O'Connell Jan 2004

Counting Down Another Music Marathon: Copyright Arbitration Royalty Panels And The Case Of Internet Radio, Sara J. O'Connell

Marquette Intellectual Property Law Review

Ms. O'Connell won the Computer Law Association's 2003 Information Technology Law Writing Competition for this article discussing the controversy over Copyright Arbitration Royalty Panels ("CARPs"). A CARP sets royalty rates for the performance of copyrighted works when the copyright owner and the broadcaster have not agreed on those rates. Congress created CARPs as a way to encourage the creation of creative works and to promote public access to these creative works. Recently, a CARP recommended royalty rates for webcasting; the broadcasting of copyrighted works over the Internet. The CARP's recommendation was rejected by the Librarian of Congress, criticized by both …
