Download or read book Patent Infringement in the European Community written by Amiram Benyamini and published by Wiley-VCH. This book was released on 1993-03-11 with total page 456 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book is a timely and detailed analysis of the acts constituting patent infringement in the laws of European Community states and associated countries. The provisions on the question have recently been re-drawn in a standardised form which derives from the Community Patent Convention (itself an established text which is not yet operational). These provisions on patent infringement need to be similarly interpreted in the different jurisdictions if any real harmonisation of laws is to be attained. This book shows the evolution and logical structure of the provisions, making apposite comparisons not only with the formner laws of the countries concerned but also with the US, Australia, Canada and elsewhere. It will be of major assistance in understanding a crucial aspect of patent law throughout Europe.

Download or read book The EU Patent Package Handbook written by Hoffmann · Eitle and published by Hoffmann · Eitle. This book was released on with total page 580 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A new patent right for Europe (the European Patent with Unitary Effect) and a new European enforcement and invalidation regime (the Unified Patent Court) are expected to come into operation soon, potentially as early as 2015. Existing patents granted by the European Patent Office (EPO), as well as those granted in the future, will automatically come under the jurisdiction of the new Court, unless opt-out rights are exercised. These measures represent one of the most complex and ambitious legal reforms in the field of European intellectual property since the creation of the EPO in 1977. For applicants and proprietors used to the current European system of national patents and national courts, the new system will present both opportunities and challenges in developing, maintaining and leveraging a cost-effective patent portfolio. For manufacturers, distributors and end-users, the new system will subject their activities to the jurisdiction of a new court, with unique and possibly unfamiliar powers and procedures. Decisions must therefore be made as to how best to take advantage of the possibilities afforded by the new system. Applicants and proprietors are already asking themselves questions such as: Should I start to register European patents as European Patents with Unitary Effect when they become available, or should I continue with national validation? For which European patents and applications should I make use of the opt-out to keep litigation in the national courts? Should I consider reverting to national filings instead of using the EPO? How will the new Unified Patent Court be structured, and how will it work? What choices will I have in future as to where to litigate – should I choose a national court or the UPC to enforce or invalidate a European patent? This Handbook provides both guidance for the strategic decisions which will have to be taken and a detailed reference manual to the law and practice of the new system.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This title was first published in 2000: European Intellectual Property is a survey and discussion of the impact of the economic principles of the European Community, upon the legal regime for the protection of intellectual property rights within the Community and the laws of its Member States. Beginning with a discussion of the issues arising from the treaty itself and the efforts of both the European Court of Justice and the European Commission through the liberalization of licensing procedures to meet these specific issues, the survey goes on to consider the attempts to achieve harmonization of national laws in the fields of trade marks, patents, industrial design and the wider efforts to create Community wide intellectual property rights.

Download or read book EU Intellectual Property Law and Policy written by The late Catherine Seville and published by Edward Elgar Publishing. This book was released on 2016-09-28 with total page 588 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This fully updated book offers a compact and accessible account of EU intellectual property (IP) law and policy. The digital age brings many opportunities, but also presents continuing challenges to IP law as the EU’s programme of harmonisation unfolds. As well as addressing the main IP rights (copyright, patents, designs, trade marks and related rights), the book also considers IP’s relationship with the EU’s rules on free movement of goods and competition, as well as examining the enforcement of IP rights. Taking account of numerous changes, this timely second edition covers the substantive provisions and procedures which apply throughout the EU, making extensive reference to the case law. The author considers how the exploitation of IP is increasingly global; harmonisation, in contrast, is only partial, even at the EU level. In response, the book sets EU IP law in its wider international context. It also seeks to highlight policy issues and arguments of relevance to the EU, in its relations both within the Union and with the rest of the world. Designed as a compact and approachable account of these difficult and technical areas, and with advice on further reading and research, this unique book is useful both as a work of reference and for more general study. It is essential reading for postgraduate students, academic researchers and legal practitioners alike.

Download or read book Intellectual Property and the Internal Market of the European Community written by Peter Groves and published by Springer. This book was released on 1993-02-23 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This work, perhaps for the first time, provides a description of the great variety of proposals at EEC level for the reform and harmonisation of intellectual property law. It addresses patents, copyright and neighbouring rights, trade marks, biotechnology, semiconductor chips, topography right, industrial designs and plant breeders' rights. Save as required for the purpose of shedding light on the EEC proposals, it does not attempt to examine member states' national laws. In the case of industrial designs, where no harmonisation has yet been proposed, a very brief survey of national jurisdictions is presented. There is a useful appendix of documents, a bibliography and index. This practical handbook will prove invaluable to practitioners, both in the IP field and non-specialists, seeking up-to-date information on European developments, including solicitors, barristers, patent agents and trade mark agents in private practice, commerce and industry throughout the EEC and in Member States' major trading partners.

This book was released on 2008-06-25 with total page 106 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Diploma Thesis from the year 2008 in the subject Law - European and International Law, Intellectual Properties, grade: 1, University of Linz (Institute of European Law ), language: English, abstract: The patent law is based on intellectual property rights. The groundwork for this was laid in 1883 by the Paris Convention for the Protection of Industrial Property1. The international treaty allows for regional treaties, such as the Patent Cooperation Treaty (PCT) and the Agreement of the Trade-Relative Aspects of Intellectual Property Rights (TRIPs) of the WTO the European Patent Convention (EPC). These are all treaties devolving from the Paris Convention. The EPC covers Europe (in the broadest sense) (cf. Art. 45 PCT). The European Community (EC) is an entity, by international law (cf. Art. 281 EC) and may represent its constituent states in the concerns of the WIPO and WTO. The community has to respect International treaties such as the Paris Convention and many procedures and measures of the EC respond to those treaties. In this thesis only the EPC will be discussed. The EPC created a uniform body of substantive patent law for patents in Europe. It established a single European procedure for the grant of patents. A European patent is worth its fee, because the owner of the patent can use it to economic advantage. The EPC also laid the groundwork for the introduction of a Community Patent by the EC Council. The initial concept of a Community Patent was first discussed in 1960. The last attempt to finalize the Community Patent was made in 2007.
Download or read book Intellectual Property Review written by Dominick A Conde and published by Law Business Research Ltd.. This book was released on 2017-07-04 with total page 657 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Intellectual Property Review, edited by Dominick A Conde of Fitzpatrick, Cella, Harper & Scinto, covers 30 jurisdictions with leading practitioners explaining the opportunities for intellectual property protection in their respective region, plus significant recent developments and the unique aspects of each country. It is not an overstatement to say that essentially all business is global, and the protection of intellectual property is the lifeblood of all business. The scope and implementation of that protection, however, varies from country to country. It is therefore incumbent for both clients and their lawyers, to be conversant with the individual practices, laws, rules and procedures, in each of the economically significant countries. The goal of this review is to provide that guidance. Contributors include: Stanislas Roux-Vaillard, Hogan Lovells LLP; Felix Roediger, Bird & Bird LLP; and Tommaso Faelli, BonelliErede

Download or read book Intellectual Property Rights as Obstacles to Legitimate Trade written by Christopher Heath and published by Kluwer Law International B.V.. This book was released on 2018-09-20 with total page 295 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Intellectual Property Rights as Obstacles to Legitimate Trade helps to understand one of the underlying rationales of the TRIPS Agreement in light of some of the most pertinent IP issues. The WTO/TRIPS Agreement for the first time put IP rights in the context of trade rules, such as when does the exercise of IP rights become an unjustified burden to legitimate trade? Cases have arisen where IP rights are conferred, used, or enforced in a manner that arguably impedes trade, both in domestic and international contexts. This groundbreaking book is the first comprehensive assessment of this controversial area of trade law, shedding important new light on the underlying rationales of the TRIPS Agreement. With contributions by both practitioners and academics working in a range of countries, this book considers thorny issues in such areas as the following: – interpretation of ‘obstacles to legitimate trade’ in the context of GATT/ WTO jurisprudence; – separating markets by preventing parallel importation in the context of patents; – geoblocking – territorial separation of digital markets; – using trademarks to prevent competition; – geographical indications – protection of terms that are considered generic in certain domestic markets; – seizure of goods in transit; – ‘evergreening’ patents – attempts to extend the duration of patents; – rights to second-hand digital goods or content; – unjustified threats – towards appropriate standards of liability. Focusing on topical and under-researched areas of IP law, the contributors stimulate a discussion on an overarching concern that is not often addressed – how to assess whether the protection and enforcement of certain IP rights in particular situations should be classified as trade barriers. As an incisive analysis of the desirable balance between the exercise of IP rights and the demands of legitimate trade, this book will be welcomed by practitioners, lawmakers, policy advisers, and academics in both trade law and IP law.
