Enforcement of Intellectual Property Rights in the EU Member States by Flip Petillion Pdf
Enforcement of Intellectual Property Rights in the EU Member States provides a timely overview and thorough analysis of intellectual property rights enforcement in the EU Member States. Taking legal action in one or several countries in the EU to enforce intellectual property rights is quite a challenge. The adoption of European Directive 2004/48/EC on the Enforcement of Intellectual Property Rights was meant to put a halt to considerable discrepancies in national legislations which caused uncertainty and a difference in enforcement between the EU Member States. The Enforcement Directive aimed to create a level playing field and to ensure a high, equivalent and homogeneous level of intellectual property protection across the EU.Over the past decade, the Enforcement Directive has been transposed into all EU Member States, in national legislation and through its application in national and EU case law. Both are essential to understand the Enforcement Directive's actual scope of application. In order to prepare and undertake an action in different countries potentially simultaneously knowledge of national legislation, local custom and practice, as well as procedural law, national and EU case law is essential.This book is a collaborative effort of lawyers from top tier firms from all 28 EU Member States. It is a valuable resource for both practitioners who are active cross-border and internationally and general counsel who seek an in-depth analysis of the legal landscape across the EU.

Landmark Intellectual Property Cases and Their Legacy by Christopher Heath,Anselm Kamperman Sanders Pdf
This is a book dedicated to the significance and legacy of landmark cases in the field of intellectual property. Eleven well-known scholars offer in-depth commentary and analysis of cases that have made an impact on legal theory or critical thinking about the scope and purpose of the protection of intellectual and industrial creativity. All the cases covered have proven useful in developing doctrine, even though subsequent developments have made some appear andmisleadingand rather than andleadingand, and for some recent cases it is too early to say whether their approach will become mainstream. Among the fundamental questions and all profoundly interesting, and to which no definite answers have yet been found and arising in the course of the analysis are the following: and Who should be master over the reputation, esteem and legacy of authors and their works and authors and their heirs, or subsequent copyright owners? and What, if any, protection should be granted to achievements in the absence of confusion? and Should prevention of unfair competition allow one to andreap what one has not sownand? and Should we protect commercial investment beyond the scope of defined intellectual property rights? and Should it be considered a tort to use a well-known mark in a way that may dilute its repute and distinctive character? and What kinds of monopolies should be protected, if any? and Does the patent system in its current form allow us to question the assumption that technological progress is good per se, and that novel and inventive solutions should thus be protected? and Should extraneous considerations such as public good and social usefulness be considered at the stages of grant and enforcement of patent rights? and Should we grant patents over living organisms whose workings and reproduction are a long way from being completely understood? and Should the rules developed for the enforcement of property rights limit a patenteeands remedies to appropriate damages, thereby effectively granting a compulsory licence? The book concludes with an analysis of two case clusters remarkable for the worldwide dimension of the dispute. The authors show how litigation over Lego in about 30 jurisdictions and Budweiser in over 40 jurisdictions has enriched doctrine on such issues as contract, trade marks, trade names, geographical indications, property rights in general, human rights, and various international and bilateral treaties, all as they impinge on the protection of intellectual property rights. For scholars in the field, as well as for lawyers seeking a rich vein of doctrine to buttress a case, this unusual book will be of incomparable value. As a masterful clarification of salient doctrine, it represents a major contribution to the legal theory underpinning intellectual property law.
