Finally, the Note will examine the enforcement of ADR awards, the application of …

Bringing Down The Walls: How Technology Is Being Used To Thwart Parallel Importers Amid The International Confusion Concerning Exhaustion Of Rights, Ryan L. Vinelli

Cardozo Journal of International and Comparative Law

The note examines the tension between intellectual property rights and free trade, highlighting the conflict arising from market segmentation strategies employed by companies like Sony. It argues that the lack of a uniform international standard on the exhaustion of rights exacerbates this issue, suggesting that an international regime under the WTO could mitigate market segmentation and promote free trade.

Draconian Or Just? Adopting The Italian Model Of Imposing Administrative Fines On The Purchasers Of Counterfeit Goods, Amanda Silverman Jan 2009

Draconian Or Just? Adopting The Italian Model Of Imposing Administrative Fines On The Purchasers Of Counterfeit Goods, Amanda Silverman

Cardozo Journal of International and Comparative Law

The note examines the effectiveness of penalizing consumers for purchasing counterfeit goods, focusing on Italy's approach and its implications for the U.S. It argues that such penalties can deter demand and reduce counterfeiting, aligning with the propertization of trademarks. The analysis highlights enforcement challenges, including proving consumer intent, and suggests using objective criteria like price and seller credibility. The note proposes adopting Italy's model in the U.S. to protect intellectual property and consumer trust, despite potential privacy concerns and enforcement difficulties.


Gardasil A Year Later: Cervical Cancer As A Model For Inequality Of Access To Health Services, Micah Globerson Jan 2009

Gardasil A Year Later: Cervical Cancer As A Model For Inequality Of Access To Health Services, Micah Globerson

Cardozo Journal of Equal Rights & Social Justice

This article updates a prior feminist legal analysis of Gardasil, the vaccine against Human Papillomavirus ("HPV"), in light of new developments. Recent discoveries confirming that HPV poses threats to men led Merck & Co. ("Merck") to apply for FDA approval to market Gardasil to males. These developments have renewed focus on the recurring question of whether making Gardasil vaccination a prerequisite for boys' school participation will arouse the same public condemnation that resulted from the prior mandate targeting girls. Another new development involves a vaccine panel recommendation by the Centers for Disease Control ("CDC") that inadvertently resulted in a policy …

Cardozo Journal of Conflict Resolution

This Note will first explore the popularity of Seinfeld and discuss the influence of Seinfeld on legal culture.

Specific instances in-which Seinfeld has ridiculed formal legal practices and offered social criticisms of the legal profession are analyzed in Part IV. Part V describes a specific episode of Seinfeld and illustrates the consequences of parties' refusal to reach mutually satisfactory resolutions, the need for mediation to resolve highly contentious disputes, and the inadequacy of the legal system to provide an …


The Politics Of Intellectual Property, Jessica Litman Jan 2009

The Politics Of Intellectual Property, Jessica Litman

Cardozo Arts & Entertainment Law Journal

In May 2005, Keith Aoki invited me to participate on a panel on "The Politics of Copyright Law" at the 2006 Association of American Law Schools ("A.A.L.S. ") mid-year meeting workshop on Intellectual Property in Vancouver, British Columbia. The panel, renamed "The Politics of Intellectual Property," and moderated by Keith, included talks by Justin Hughes, Mark Lemley, Jay Thomas, and me, and it was followed by three concurrent sessions on "The Politics Concerning Moral Rights," "The Politics of Global Intellectual Property, " and "The Politics of Patent Reform." I'm not sure what the organizing committee had in mind when it …

Reciprocal Share-Alike Exemptions In Copyright Law, Guy Pessach Dec 2008

Reciprocal Share-Alike Exemptions In Copyright Law, Guy Pessach

Cardozo Law Review

This article introduces a novel element to copyright law's exemptions' scheme, and particularly the fair use doctrine - a reciprocal share-alike requirement. I argue that beneficiaries of a copyright exemption should comply with a complementary set of ex-post reciprocal share-alike obligations that come on top of the exemption that they benefit from. Among other aspects, reciprocal share-alike obligations may trump contractual limitations and technological protection measures that are imposed by parties who relied on a copyright exemption in the course of their own use of copyrighted materials. Thus, fair use beneficiaries should be obliged to treat alike subsequent third parties …

Internet File-Sharing: Swedish Pirates Challenge The U.S., Ulric M. Lewen

The note examines the challenges of enforcing copyright laws in the digital age, focusing on the contrasting approaches of the U.S. and Sweden in addressing peer-to-peer file sharing. It critiques the U.S. for its aggressive legal strategy, which may prove counterproductive, while highlighting Sweden's potential as a model for alternative solutions. The analysis underscores the need for a balanced approach that protects copyright holders without stifling innovation.
