Bring In The Nerds: Secrecy, National Security, And The Creation Of International Intellectual Property Law, David S. Levine Jan 2012

Bring In The Nerds: Secrecy, National Security, And The Creation Of International Intellectual Property Law, David S. Levine

Cardozo Arts & Entertainment Law Journal

The negotiations of the international Anti-Counterfeiting Trade Agreement and Trans Pacific Partnership Agreement have been conducted largely in secret, elevating intellectual property piracy to the level of national security concerns for purposes of accessing information through the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA). However, the level of actual secrecy has been tiered, with corporate interests enjoying far more access to negotiation information than the general public. At the same time, similar intellectual property issues were negotiated in the relative transparency of Congress' debate over the Stop Online Piracy Act and PROTECT IP Act, allowing for much greater public involvement. With national …

A Tango Between Copyright And Choreography: Whiteness As Status Property In Balanchine's Ballets, Fuller's Serpentine Dance, And Graham's Modern Dances, Caroline Joan S. Picart Jan 2012

A Tango Between Copyright And Choreography: Whiteness As Status Property In Balanchine's Ballets, Fuller's Serpentine Dance, And Graham's Modern Dances, Caroline Joan S. Picart

Cardozo Journal of Equal Rights & Social Justice

The article examines the intersection of race, gender, and copyright law in the context of modern dance in the United States. It argues that the legal battles over copyright protection for choreography were deeply influenced by racial and gender biases, with white male choreographers like George Balanchine securing ownership and control over their works, while female choreographers like Martha Graham faced significant challenges in maintaining control over their intellectual property. The article highlights how these dynamics shaped the legal framework for copyright protection in dance, emphasizing the role of whiteness and gender in determining ownership and legacy.

Battling Clearance Culture Shock: Comparing U.S. Fair Use And Canadian Fair Dealing In Advancing Freedom Of Expression In Non-Fiction Film, Sarah Sklar-Heyn Oct 2011

Battling Clearance Culture Shock: Comparing U.S. Fair Use And Canadian Fair Dealing In Advancing Freedom Of Expression In Non-Fiction Film, Sarah Sklar-Heyn

Cardozo Journal of International and Comparative Law

The note explores the tension between intellectual property rights and freedom of expression, particularly focusing on the challenges faced by nonfiction filmmakers in navigating copyright laws. It highlights how fair use and fair dealing doctrines in the U.S. and Canada serve as critical tools for balancing these competing interests. The analysis emphasizes the importance of flexible legal frameworks to accommodate the unique needs of documentary filmmaking, which often relies heavily on the use of preexisting works. The note also examines the potential for international harmonization of these doctrines to facilitate global distribution of audiovisual works.


Fame Law: Requiring Proof Of National Fame In Trademark Law, Xuan-Thao Nguyen Oct 2011

Fame Law: Requiring Proof Of National Fame In Trademark Law, Xuan-Thao Nguyen

Cardozo Law Review

The public has always been infatuated with fame. Trademark law likewise has a long history of infatuation with fame. Protecting the fame embodied in a trademark against dilutive use by others has not been easy. The difficulty stems from the wording of the statute and judicial failure to understand the "fame" requirement. The fundamental question centers on what level of fame is required for the property-like protection against subsequent uses that dilute the famous trademark. This Article argues for national fame to be the requisite requirement for property-like anti-dilution protection under trademark law. The Article recommends that the proof of …


Access To Network Services And Protection Of Constitutional Rights: Recognizing The Essential Role Of Internet Access For The Freedom Of Expression, Nicola Lucchi Jul 2011

Access To Network Services And Protection Of Constitutional Rights: Recognizing The Essential Role Of Internet Access For The Freedom Of Expression, Nicola Lucchi

Cardozo Journal of International and Comparative Law

In January 2010, after a troubled process, the French law for "creation and Internet," commonly known as "HADOPI 2," was finally adopted in an amended form. The enacted text was the result of corrective action undertaken by the Conseil constitutionnel [Constitutional Council] (France's highest constitutional authority), through Decision No. 2009580DC of the 10th of June 2009. In coming to its conclusion the Conseil constitutionnel examined the mechanism of sanctions introduced by the regulatory measure, assessing compliance with such fundamental rights and freedoms as the presumption of innocence, the separation of powers, the right of defense, the right to fair trial, …


Prognosis Indeterminable: How Patent Non-Obviousness Outcomes Depend Too Much On Decision-Makers, Benjamin H. Graf Jul 2011

Prognosis Indeterminable: How Patent Non-Obviousness Outcomes Depend Too Much On Decision-Makers, Benjamin H. Graf

Cardozo Public Law, Policy & Ethics Journal

The article argues that the nonobviousness requirement under 35 U.S.C. §103 is overly subjective and unpredictable, undermining the patent system's effectiveness. It contends that this indeterminacy discourages innovation and allows monopolies on minor improvements. The author proposes two reforms to enhance objectivity and consistency: a public database of nonobviousness decisions and treating prior art as a constructive specification for patent claims.


The Myth Of Buick Aspirin: An Empirical Study Of Trademark Dilution By Product And Trade Names, Paul J. Heald, Robert Brauneis Jul 2011

The Myth Of Buick Aspirin: An Empirical Study Of Trademark Dilution By Product And Trade Names, Paul J. Heald, Robert Brauneis

Cardozo Law Review

Trademark dilution is a highly controversial cause of action that has been the subject of hundreds of law review articles, but no significant scientific work. We analyze sixty years of telephone white pages, corporate and LLC naming data, advertisements from the New York Times, Wall Street Journal, and Washington Post, state and federal trademark databases, and all recorded dilution litigation. Our data strongly suggest that famous trademarks are frequently borrowed for use as trade names in services, but almost never as trade marks on products. Given that Congress based anti-dilution legislation on the assumption that uses like …

Dynamic Patent Governance In Europe And The United States: The Myriad Example, Kali Murray, Esther Van Zimmeren Apr 2011

Dynamic Patent Governance In Europe And The United States: The Myriad Example, Kali Murray, Esther Van Zimmeren

Cardozo Journal of International and Comparative Law

This Article examines the emerging elements of a new model for patent governance. It is divided into four parts. In Section One, we develop a model of dynamic patent governance. This model extends the theoretical framework of network governance, to explain the emergence of networks in the decisionmaking infrastructure for the public and private actors in the patent system. Dynamic patent governance widens this theoretical framework in two key ways. First, dynamic patent governance, within its formal dimensions, is based on the idea that heterogeneous administrative actors regulate the grant and enforcement of patents. This challenges a perspective that sees …
