Art is in the eye of the beholder, but the protection of the rights of artists and other creators is in the eye of the legislator. Copyright Termination and Recapture Laws describes the history of Congressional efforts to give creators of copyright protected works an opportunity to renegotiate transfer agreements and related licensing agreements, first via a two-term system under the 1909 Act, and then via a termination and recapture system under the 1976 Act. This book extensively evaluates the policy and legislative evolution, and provides thoughtful guidance on how practitioners can create, submit, and effectively prosecute termination requests under current law.

Representing a compromise in the pharmaceutical industry in balancing patent exclusivity against market competition, the effect of the Drug Price Competition and Patent Term Restoration Act (commonly known as the Hatch-Waxman Act) on controlling the pharmaceutical market remains unsettled. Amendments to the original act included provisions for an abbreviated process for FDA approval of generic versions of patented pharmaceuticals through the filing of an Abbreviated New Drug Application (ANDA) and the right to initiate patent litigation against an applicant. This law has resulted in ANDA litigation cases and a constant struggle to shape the landscape of the patent and regulatory regime governing FDA approved patented and generic drugs. The Hatch-Waxman Act with it amendments is a hybrid of two already complex areas of the law — U.S. patent law and FDA regulatory law—which makes patent litigation in this area especially complicated and hotly contested.

?Patent litigation is increasingly prevalent today, but this use of the courts to resolve disputes makes the process significantly more expensive for the client, sometimes prohibitively so. Many patent disputes can't bear the level of expense that comes with the territory of a jury trial in federal court. Arbitration can provide a productive path for getting smaller cases resolved so that the entry fee doesn't end up being more than the prize. Arbitrating Patent Disputes provides a practical, clear, step-by-step guide to arbitration, covering everything from evaluating whether it makes sense to include arbitration in the patent-related agreement, to drafting the clause, pre-hearing preparation, presenting the most robust case during the hearing, enforcing or attacking the award, and handling appeals.

Invention Analysis and Claiming: A Patent Lawyer's Guide, Second Edition , presents a comprehensive approach to analyzing inventions and capturing them in a sophisticated set of patent claims. A central theme is the importance of using the problem-solution paradigm to identify the "inventive concept" before the claim-drafting begins. The book's teachings are grounded in "old school" principles of patent practice that, before now, have been learned only on the job from supervisors and mentors. In addition, a new chapter is devoted to means-plus-function claiming--explaining its history, how the Federal Circuit case law has dramatically affected the practice in this realm, and how the patent practitioner can secure appropriately broad coverage for the inventive concept while not triggering "means-plus-function treatment." Questions at the end of each chapter have been added to:  •  Confirm the understanding of the principles presented  •  Explore the jurisp…

The U.S. Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) encourages participants to use alternative dispute resolution (ADR) processes during post grant proceedings to facilitate resolution of conflicts that have become exceedingly complex. The flexibility and benefits of ADR proceedings are based on the expertise of qualified neutrals such as experienced IP attorneys and former judges and magistrates who are uniquely equipped to evaluate IP issues and settle conflicts in a manner much more streamlined than a Patent Trial and Appeal Board (PTAB) proceeding. Patent Neutral: Expanding Use of ADR for Settlement of Patent Disputes at the PTAB describes how these neutrals can be engaged to help parties more efficiently decide IP conflicts, particularly proceedings at the USPTO. In this concise guide, Author David L.

The First Book Devoted to Settlement of Patent Disputes. There two reasons for a book devoted to settlement of patent disputes and litigation. One is that settlement is more important than litigation. The effects of patents on people and businesses are overwhelmingly defined by the terms of settlement and license agreements and only rarely by judicial decisions. The other is that the subject of patent settlements has not received the attention it deserves. There are many books on litigation and licensing. Until now, there was no book directed to settlement. Organized in four sections, this resource is designed to help everyone involved improve patent settlement outcomes and processes. Throughout the book, numerous charts and graphs demonstrate the book's key concepts and pertinent data. Many charts are shown in color for ease of use. Economics of Settlement.

One man Steve Jobs outspokenly admired was Edwin Land, the creator of Polaroid's instant photography. Jobs revered Land as "a national treasure," and modeled much of his career after his. Neither had a college degree, but both men built highly successful, innovative organizations. Both were perfectionists, micro-managers with fanatic attention to detail, consummate showmen and marketers. In many ways, Edwin Land was the original Steve Jobs. This riveting biography from the American Bar Association, visits the spectacular life of Edwin Land, breakthrough inventor. At the time of his death, he stood third on the list of our most prolific inventors, behind only Thomas Edison and one of Edison's colleagues.

Legal experts agree that trade secrets are extremely important to the U.S. economy. The estimated value of trade secrets in the United States is a staggering $5 trillion, and corporations spend billions of dollars to protect their trade secrets. Research shows that billions of dollars are lost each year as a result of trade secret theft. In 2002, the Office of the National Counterintelligence Executive reported $300 billion in losses as the result of industrial espionage. Guide to Protecting and Litigating Trade Secrets focuses on several large jurisdictions in which trade secret cases are heavily litigated to illustrate the concepts, but the analysis also includes other jurisdictions to demonstrate the differing approaches to the treatment of trade secrets. In addition to a broader, more academic look at trade secret law, the book also draws on current, real-life examples of trade secret nightmares and the litigation experience of its primary authors to provide practical advice to th…

Trade secrets are of great and increasing importance to the U.S. economy, representing the vast majority of U.S. intellectual property. Corporations spend billions of dollars to protect their trade secrets, but with data breaches on the rise, the scenario of the ever-increasing threats to trade secret protection is bleaker than ever. Because of this, trade secret litigation is increasing at a phenomenal rate. As a result of the ever-increasing number of trade secret lawsuits, litigants have paid and juries have awarded hundreds of millions—even billions—of dollars. This book is intended to help business executives and in-house counsel take control of and protect what may be their business's most valuable asset—its trade secrets. In addition to a broader, more academic look at trade secret law, the book also draws on current, real-life examples of trade secret nightmares and the litigation experience of its primary authors to provide practical advice to the business ow…

Trade secrets are an essential component of a well-rounded intellectual property portfolio and the breadth of available protection can be extensive. Author Chris Scott Graham is a general commercial/technology litigator practicing in Silicon Valley for well over twenty-five years and has handled several dozen trade secret cases. He's found that many companies take the first step in creating protections only after an overt act of misappropriation and when those events arise, company executives have a tendency to demand rapid action from their general litigation counsel, who in turn may not have experience with the practical issues that exist when handling trade secret litigation. In this important resource he explores the questions of trade secret identification, protection, and economic value from the standpoint of what executives, the board of directors, and the general counsel must consider when faced with the prospect of trade secret litigation. While the main focus is on the trade…

"Trade Secret Law is the first and only book in the Nutshell series to cover trade secret law in depth. It was written as a companion to Cases and Materials on Trade Secret Law by Rowe and Sandeen (the first casebook on trade secret law), but adds more practical advice. Thus, it is a useful resource for attorneys and law students alike. It could be a supplement to a course on trade secret law or an IP survey course that covers trade secret law, as most now do. Like the casebook, it focuses on the predominate law governing trade secrets in the U.S.: The Uniform Trade Secrets Act (now applicable in 47 of 50 states). The Trade Secret Law in a Nutshell addresses both international and criminal enforcement of trade secret rights. The Second Edition includes significant legal developments, including coverage of the Defend Trade Secrets Act of 2016." - publisher's description

One man Steve Jobs outspokenly admired was Edwin Land, the creator of Polaroid's instant photography. Jobs revered Land as "a national treasure," and modeled much of his career after his. Neither had a college degree, but both men built highly successful, innovative organizations. Both were perfectionists, micro-managers with fanatic attention to detail, consummate showmen and marketers. In many ways, Edwin Land was the original Steve Jobs. This riveting biography from the American Bar Association, visits the spectacular life of Edwin Land, breakthrough inventor. At the time of his death, he stood third on the list of our most prolific inventors, behind only Thomas Edison and one of Edison's colleagues.

Representing a compromise in the pharmaceutical industry in balancing patent exclusivity against market competition, the effect of the Drug Price Competition and Patent Term Restoration Act (commonly known as the Hatch-Waxman Act) on controlling the pharmaceutical market remains unsettled. Amendments to the original act included provisions for an abbreviated process for FDA approval of generic versions of patented pharmaceuticals through the filing of an Abbreviated New Drug Application (ANDA) and the right to initiate patent litigation against an applicant. This law has resulted in ANDA litigation cases and a constant struggle to shape the landscape of the patent and regulatory regime governing FDA approved patented and generic drugs. The Hatch-Waxman Act with it amendments is a hybrid of two already complex areas of the law — U.S. patent law and FDA regulatory law—which makes patent litigation in this area especially complicated and hotly contested.

?Patent litigation is increasingly prevalent today, but this use of the courts to resolve disputes makes the process significantly more expensive for the client, sometimes prohibitively so. Many patent disputes can't bear the level of expense that comes with the territory of a jury trial in federal court. Arbitration can provide a productive path for getting smaller cases resolved so that the entry fee doesn't end up being more than the prize. Arbitrating Patent Disputes provides a practical, clear, step-by-step guide to arbitration, covering everything from evaluating whether it makes sense to include arbitration in the patent-related agreement, to drafting the clause, pre-hearing preparation, presenting the most robust case during the hearing, enforcing or attacking the award, and handling appeals.

Art is in the eye of the beholder, but the protection of the rights of artists and other creators is in the eye of the legislator. Copyright Termination and Recapture Laws describes the history of Congressional efforts to give creators of copyright protected works an opportunity to renegotiate transfer agreements and related licensing agreements, first via a two-term system under the 1909 Act, and then via a termination and recapture system under the 1976 Act. This book extensively evaluates the policy and legislative evolution, and provides thoughtful guidance on how practitioners can create, submit, and effectively prosecute termination requests under current law.

Legal experts agree that trade secrets are extremely important to the U.S. economy. The estimated value of trade secrets in the United States is a staggering $5 trillion, and corporations spend billions of dollars to protect their trade secrets. Research shows that billions of dollars are lost each year as a result of trade secret theft. In 2002, the Office of the National Counterintelligence Executive reported $300 billion in losses as the result of industrial espionage. Guide to Protecting and Litigating Trade Secrets focuses on several large jurisdictions in which trade secret cases are heavily litigated to illustrate the concepts, but the analysis also includes other jurisdictions to demonstrate the differing approaches to the treatment of trade secrets. In addition to a broader, more academic look at trade secret law, the book also draws on current, real-life examples of trade secret nightmares and the litigation experience of its primary authors to provide practical advice to th…

Trade secrets are of great and increasing importance to the U.S. economy, representing the vast majority of U.S. intellectual property. Corporations spend billions of dollars to protect their trade secrets, but with data breaches on the rise, the scenario of the ever-increasing threats to trade secret protection is bleaker than ever. Because of this, trade secret litigation is increasing at a phenomenal rate. As a result of the ever-increasing number of trade secret lawsuits, litigants have paid and juries have awarded hundreds of millions—even billions—of dollars. This book is intended to help business executives and in-house counsel take control of and protect what may be their business's most valuable asset—its trade secrets. In addition to a broader, more academic look at trade secret law, the book also draws on current, real-life examples of trade secret nightmares and the litigation experience of its primary authors to provide practical advice to the business ow…

Patent misuse is an affirmative defense to an action for patent infringement or for royalties under a license that arises when the patentee engages in certain anticompetitive conduct, or conduct contrary to public policy, using the patent in suit. The misuse doctrine protects against conduct that impermissibly extends intellectual property rights beyond their lawful scope. As a result, the modern misuse doctrine straddles the intersection of intellectual property law and antitrust—it borrows from both, but is completely at home in neither. This makes misuse a challenging landscape to navigate for antitrust and intellectual property practitioners alike. This book provides an update on new developments in the law since the first edition, and provides a practical, practitioner-orientated approach to understanding and applying misuse doctrine.

Invention Analysis and Claiming: A Patent Lawyer's Guide, Second Edition , presents a comprehensive approach to analyzing inventions and capturing them in a sophisticated set of patent claims. A central theme is the importance of using the problem-solution paradigm to identify the "inventive concept" before the claim-drafting begins. The book's teachings are grounded in "old school" principles of patent practice that, before now, have been learned only on the job from supervisors and mentors. In addition, a new chapter is devoted to means-plus-function claiming--explaining its history, how the Federal Circuit case law has dramatically affected the practice in this realm, and how the patent practitioner can secure appropriately broad coverage for the inventive concept while not triggering "means-plus-function treatment." Questions at the end of each chapter have been added to:  •  Confirm the understanding of the principles presented  •  Explore the jurisp…

Before China's entry into the World Trade Organization (WTO), the Chinese IP regime was out-of-step with international standards. China has made rapid progress since then. To obtain approval for entry, it made all the necessary amendments to its Patent Law, Copyright Law, and the Trademark Law, and also revised relevant Implementation Rules to bring such measures into compliance with the Agreement on Trade-Related Aspects of Intellectual Property Rights (TRIPS). Despite full compliance with these standards, the Chinese IP system still involves distinct characteristics: for example, enforcement power is divided between two powerful and independent branches of the government, which can surprise U.S. practitioners accustomed to using the judicial branch as the primary means for addressing IP infringement issues. Written by twenty legal practitioners who are extraordinarily familiar with China's intellectual property laws, this state-of-the-art book discusses and summarizes the protection …

The U.S. Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) encourages participants to use alternative dispute resolution (ADR) processes during post grant proceedings to facilitate resolution of conflicts that have become exceedingly complex. The flexibility and benefits of ADR proceedings are based on the expertise of qualified neutrals such as experienced IP attorneys and former judges and magistrates who are uniquely equipped to evaluate IP issues and settle conflicts in a manner much more streamlined than a Patent Trial and Appeal Board (PTAB) proceeding. Patent Neutral: Expanding Use of ADR for Settlement of Patent Disputes at the PTAB describes how these neutrals can be engaged to help parties more efficiently decide IP conflicts, particularly proceedings at the USPTO. In this concise guide, Author David L. Newman covers all essential aspects of using ADR to resolve these disputes at the PTAB, including: The full use of mediation and arbitration during proceedings at the PTAB Resolution of …

Trade secrets are an essential component of a well-rounded intellectual property portfolio and the breadth of available protection can be extensive. Author Chris Scott Graham is a general commercial/technology litigator practicing in Silicon Valley for well over twenty-five years and has handled several dozen trade secret cases. He's found that many companies take the first step in creating protections only after an overt act of misappropriation and when those events arise, company executives have a tendency to demand rapid action from their general litigation counsel, who in turn may not have experience with the practical issues that exist when handling trade secret litigation. In this important resource he explores the questions of trade secret identification, protection, and economic value from the standpoint of what executives, the board of directors, and the general counsel must consider when faced with the prospect of trade secret litigation. While the main focus is on the trade…

The First Book Devoted to Settlement of Patent Disputes. There two reasons for a book devoted to settlement of patent disputes and litigation. One is that settlement is more important than litigation. The effects of patents on people and businesses are overwhelmingly defined by the terms of settlement and license agreements and only rarely by judicial decisions. The other is that the subject of patent settlements has not received the attention it deserves. There are many books on litigation and licensing. Until now, there was no book directed to settlement. Organized in four sections, this resource is designed to help everyone involved improve patent settlement outcomes and processes. Throughout the book, numerous charts and graphs demonstrate the book's key concepts and pertinent data. Many charts are shown in color for ease of use. Economics of Settlement.

Although licensing itself is an old tactic, organizations are implementing licensing brand extension strategies today in a much more comprehensive and brand-oriented manner. Major organizations such as Procter & Gamble, General Motors, Black & Decker, The Coca-Cola Company and TGI Fridays have each embraced licensing and developed licensing-driven marketing programs that have not only generated additional revenue (a secondary objective that used to be primary) but capitalized on brand equity, extending the marketing message broadly and authentically. Licensing has become a powerful marketing tool. As CEO of Beanstalk, a leading, New York City-based global brand licensing agency and part of the Omnicom Group (NYSE: OMC), author Michael Stone has worked with companies as diverse as HGTV, the Ford Motor Company, the Coca-Cola Company and AT&T to create highly ambitious and successful strategic licensing and brand extension programs for Beanstalk's clients.

"Trade Secret Law is the first and only book in the Nutshell series to cover trade secret law in depth. It was written as a companion to Cases and Materials on Trade Secret Law by Rowe and Sandeen (the first casebook on trade secret law), but adds more practical advice. Thus, it is a useful resource for attorneys and law students alike. It could be a supplement to a course on trade secret law or an IP survey course that covers trade secret law, as most now do. Like the casebook, it focuses on the predominate law governing trade secrets in the U.S.: The Uniform Trade Secrets Act (now applicable in 47 of 50 states). The Trade Secret Law in a Nutshell addresses both international and criminal enforcement of trade secret rights. The Second Edition includes significant legal developments, including coverage of the Defend Trade Secrets Act of 2016." - publisher's description
