Still Adjusting To Markman: A Prescription For The Timing Of Claim Construction Hearings, William Lee, Anita Krug Jan 1999

Still Adjusting To Markman: A Prescription For The Timing Of Claim Construction Hearings, William Lee, Anita Krug

All Faculty Scholarship

In Markman v. Westview Instruments, Inc., the Supreme Court held that the interpretation of patent claims is a question of law to be determined by the court rather than a question of fact to be decided by the jury. The Court based its holding on the belief that judges are better suited than juries to address claim interpretation issues and that claim interpretation by the court would result in greater uniformity in the treatment of patents. The Markman decision, however, has confronted the district courts with a host of thorny questions, such as what evidence they may consider in their …

The Myth Of Market Power: Why Market Power Should Not Be Presumed When Applying Antitrust Principles To The Analysis Of Tying Agreements Involving Intellectual Property, Russell Lombardy Jan 1996

The Myth Of Market Power: Why Market Power Should Not Be Presumed When Applying Antitrust Principles To The Analysis Of Tying Agreements Involving Intellectual Property, Russell Lombardy

St. Thomas Law Review

This Comment will illustrate one of the many tensions occurring at the fault line of intersection between intellectual property law and antitrust law. This tension derives from the presumption of market power as it has been applied by the courts to the ownership of property protected by intellectual property law. The area where the effects of this presumption are the most apparent is in antitrust litigation involving "tied" products. A policy that recognizes the differences between intellectual property and other forms of property as they pertain to antitrust law and competitiveness is needed. This Comment asserts that this policy should …
