  • The Integration of International and Domestic Intellectual Property Lawmaking
    Essay: The Integration of International and Domestic Intellectual Property Lawmaking by Graeme B. Dinwoodie* It is increasingly impossible to analyze intellectual property law and policy without reference to international lawmaking. That is not, however, merely because several recent domestic reforms have been prompted by international developments.1 Indeed, because of significant U.S. influence in the formation of contemporary intellectual property treaties, U.S. law has undergone less change than most in order to comply with newly-assumed international obligations. Nor is it simply because, in an era of global trade and technological advances, a state is unable effectively to regulate economic activity on its own. Rather, the need for a broader awareness flows most directly from the integration of the international and domestic lawmaking processes. Consider this historical example. As nations met in Berlin in 1908 to revise the Berne Convention, the United States received an invitation to attend with “full free- dom of action.”2 Instead, the Register of Copyrights attended only as an observer.3 The reason might now seem unduly quaint. Thorvald Solberg, the Register of Copyrights explained to the Conference that the United States found it impracticable to send a delegate authorized to commit it to actual adhesion to the Berne Convention since some of the questions to be discussed there were pending before the Congress and premature action at the Convention might embarrass the legislative branch of the Government.4 Today, in contrast, there is a conscious blending of domestic and international lawmaking. International lawmaking demands attention to Washington; and domestic lawmaking cannot be conducted without regard for what is going on in Brussels, * Associate Professor of Law, University of Cincinnati College of Law; LL.B., Glasgow University, 1987; LL.M., Harvard Law School, 1988.

  • UNDERSTANDING TRADEMARK STRENGTH Timothy Denny Greene
    STANFORD TECHNOLOGY LAW REVIEW VOLUME 16, NUMBER 3 SPRING 2013 UNDERSTANDING TRADEMARK STRENGTH Timothy Denny Greene & Jeff Wilkerson* CITE AS: 16 STAN. TECH. L. REV. 535 (2013) http://stlr.stanford.edu/pdf/understandingtrademarkstrength.pdf ABSTRACT Trademark strength, properly understood, refers to the scope of protection afforded a trademark by courts based on that mark’s inherent and acquired: (1) tendency to signify to consumers a consistent source of the products to which the mark is affixed; and (2) ability to influence a consumer’s purchasing decisions. The stronger the mark, the more uses the mark’s owner may exclude from the marketplace through a trademark infringement or dilution action. We argue that the acquired strength prong is insufficiently theorized and lacking in analytical rigor, which results in inconsistent results as judges in each jurisdiction (and indeed, each judge within a jurisdiction) rely on their own peculiar heuristics for determining whether a trademark is strong or weak. Our goal in this Article is to develop a better understanding of what is at stake when judges and practitioners think about trademark strength and to provide analytical guideposts that judges and practitioners can use to improve outcomes. By describing mark strength in a more articulate, consistent manner we can work towards eliminating inconsistency across circuits, thereby promoting more uniform national application of the Lanham Act. And by predicting accurately how strong a court will hold a mark to be in litigation, practitioners and markholders can better calculate the risk of bringing suit against an alleged infringer (or diluter). * We thank Uli Widmaier and Chad Doellinger for providing vital comments and encouragement in early drafts of this Article.

  • Duane Morris Cannabis Trademark and Brand Protection at a Glance
    CANNABIS TRADEMARK AND BRAND PROTECTION With an increasing number of states coming “online” with respect to medicinal and adult-use cannabis products, and with the changes in the legality of cannabis extracts (namely CBD) following the 2018 Farm Bill, there is a strategic need for cannabis companies to brand their products and services. The branding of cannabis products and services—as with all products and services—is crucial for garnering consumer recognition, gaining and increasing market share, and attracting investment dollars. Cannabis companies that are developing and strengthening their brand equity now will be best-positioned for the market and legal changes that are sure to come in the future. Duane Morris attorneys work closely with clients operating or looking to operate in a wide array of verticals, and assist with developing brand strategies that make sense for their businesses from both practical and legal perspectives, and in the most cost-efficient manner possible. We’ve helped clients operating in both the medicinal and adult-use spaces in developing and implementing corporate structures that facilitate the growth and marketing of their brands.

  • How Developing Countries Can Manage Intellectual Property Rights to Maximize Access to Knowledge
    HOW DEVELOPING COUNTRIES CAN MANAGE INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS TO MAXIMIZE ACCESS TO KNOWLEDGE Edited by Xuan Li and Carlos Correa February 2009 THE SOUTH CENTRE In August 1995, the South Centre was established as a permanent inter-Governmental organization of developing countries. In pursuing its objectives of promoting South solidarity, South-South cooperation, and coordinated participation by developing countries in international forums, the South Centre has full intellectual independence. It prepares, publishes and distributes information, strategic analyses and recommendations on international economic, social and political matters of concern to the South. For detailed information about the South Centre see its website www.southcentre.org The South Centre enjoys support and cooperation from the governments of the countries of the South and is in regular working contact with the Non-Aligned Movement and the Group of 77 and China. The Centre’s studies and position papers are prepared by drawing on the technical and intellectual capacities existing within South governments and institutions and among individuals of the South. Through working group sessions and wide consultations which involve experts from different parts of the South, and sometimes from the North, common problems of the South are studied and experience and knowledge are shared. This South Perspectives series comprises authored policy papers and analyses on key issues facing developing countries in multilateral discussions and negotiations and on which they need to develop appropriate joint policy responses. It is hoped that the publications will also assist developing country governments in formulating the associated domestic policies which would further their development objectives. How Developing Countries Can Manage Intellectual Property Rights to Maximize Access to Knowledge was first published in February 2009 by the South Centre.

We deliver on that vision by creating shopping experiences that customers, sellers, and brands can trust. Today, we have more than 300 million active customer accounts and over 1.9 million selling partners worldwide. Many of these selling partners are small and medium-sized businesses, and they represent the majority of physical products sold in our stores. We are proud to help these small businesses thrive and create hundreds of thousands of new jobs in their local communities. In the face of COVID-19, we are grateful that Amazon could continue to serve our customers and selling partners. Customers were able to order and receive what they needed during a global pandemic and our selling partners, in many cases, grew their businesses as their physical storefronts saw decreased sales. The pandemic also attracted bad actors who tried to take advantage of the situation, and despite their attempts, we continued to make strong progress driving counterfeits to zero in our store. In 2020, Amazon invested over $700 million and employed more than 10,000 people to protect our store from fraud and abuse. As a result, the vast majority of our customers continued to only find authentic products in our store. We approach our anti-counterfeiting efforts through three strategies: 1. Robust proactive controls. We leverage a combination of advanced machine learning capabilities and expert human investigators to protect our store proactively from bad actors and bad products.
