Networked Economy

The persuasive force of the accepted account’s property logic has driven antitrust and intellectual property law jurisprudence for at least the past three decades. It has been through the theory of trademark ownership and the commercial strategy of branding that these laws led the courts to comprehend markets as fundamentally bifurcated—as operating according to discrete types of interbrand and intrabrand competition—a division that had an effect far beyond the confines of trademark law and resonates today in the way government agencies and courts evaluate the emerging challenges of the networked economy along the previously introduced distinction between intertype and intratype competition. While the government in its appeal to the Supreme Court in ...

This study aims to determine the legal protection of the government agency logo according to intellectual property law according to state financial law and to find out the harmonization strategy of legal protection of government agency logos between according to intellectual property law and according to state financial law. Qualitative research is carried out using the applied law research approach. The results showed that the logo of government agencies is the result of intellectual property that can become a trademark or copyright. Repressive intellectual property legal protection can be done if preventive legal protection has been done through trademark registration or copyright. While legal protection for state finances can be done if the logos of government agencies become part of intangible assets. Government agencies are required to safeguard intangible assets through administrative safeguards, in the form of bookkeeping in financial statements, and legal safeguards, in the form of registering and storing proof of trademark certificates or copyrights. If these two safeguards are carried out, harmonization between legal protection according to state financial law and intellectual property law has taken place. Preventive and repressive protection of agency logos as intangible assets can be optimized. Keywords: agency logos, intangible assets, legal

Trade Secret Protection

Rapid advances in digital and life sciences technology continue to spur theevolution of intellectual property law. As professors and practitioners inthis field know all too well, Congress and the courts continue to developintellectual property law and jurisprudence at a rapid pace. For thatreason, we have significantly augmented and revised "Intellectual Propertyin the New Technological Age.The 2016 Edition reflects the following principal developments:● Trade Secrets: Congress passed the Defend Trade Secrets Act of 2016, oneof the most momentous changes in the history of trade secret protection. Thenew law opens up the federal courts to trade secret cases, provides for exparte seizures of misappropriated trade secrets in “extraordinarycircumstances,” and establishes immunity for whistleblowers.● Patents: The past several years have witnessed some of the mostsignificant developments in U.S. patent history — from the establishment ofthe new administrative review proceedings at the Patent Office to importantshifts in patent-eligibility, claim indefiniteness, and enhanced damages atthe Supreme Court and means-plus-function claim interpretation andinfringement doctrine at the Federal Circuit. We have restructured thepatent chapter to illuminate these areas. We have also significantlyexpanded coverage of design patents in response to the growing importanceof this form of protection.● Copyrights: The Supreme Court issued important decisions addressing thepublic performance right and the first sale doctrine. The past few yearsalso witnessed important developments in the Online Service Provider safeharbor, fair use, and state protection for pre-1972 sound recordings. Wehave also integrated the digital copyright materials into a unifiedtreatment of copyright law and substantially revamped the fair use sectionto reflect the broadening landscape of this important doctrine.● Trademarks: We have integrated important cases on federal registrabilityof disparaging marks, merchandising rights, likelihood of confusion on theInternet, and remedies.● Other State Protections: We have updated material on the right ofpublicity, an active and growing area. We have also reorganized the chapterand focused it on IP regimes.

Historically, State Administrative Court (PTUN) has existed since 1986, with the enactment of Law Number 5 of 1986 concerning State Administrative Court which currently has been amended by Law Number 9 of 2004 concerning Amendment to Law Number 5 of 1986 concerning State Administrative Court and amended again by Law Number 51 of 2009 concerning the Second Amendment to Law Number 5 of 1986 concerning State Administrative Court. The role of the Administrative Court according to the explanation of the law, the PTUN functions as a control or supervisory agency thus legal actions from government officials do not deviate, in addition to protecting the rights of citizens from the actions of officials who abuse their authority or act arbitrarily. Currently, the object of dispute and can be sued at the State Administrative Court is only a State Administration decision reduced by the exceptions stipulated in Article 2 and Article 49 of the PTUN Law. The provisions of Article 3 of the Administrative Court Law No. 5 of 1986 on negative fictitious could potentially no longer be enforced since the enactment of Article 53 of the AP Law which stipulates positive fictitious. Since the promulgation of Law Number 30 of 2014 concerning Government Administration (hereinafter referred to as AP Law) on 17 October 2014, there has been a change in the legal criteria from the government written stipulation (beschikkingen) which was initially restrictive and can be sued to the PTUN, yet it has recently become extensive (which was originally mere beschkking, currently it almost covers all variations of besluiten). With the enactment of the AP Law, there will be an expansion of absolute competence and objects of state administration disputes, as stipulated in Article 87 of the AP Law which includes: first, Government Administration Decrees, as stipulated in Article 1 point 7 of the AP Law; second, Government Administration Actions Based on Article 1 point 8 of the AP Law. Furthermore, with the enactment of the Supreme Court Regulation Number 2 of 2019 concerning Guidelines for Government Action Dispute Resolution and the Authority to Adjudicate Unlawful Conducts by Government Agencies and/or Officials (onrechtmatige overheidsdaad / OOD), the judicial power shall transfer from the General Court to the State Administrative Court. This crucial matter continues to be the groundwork and reason for conducting the current research entitled the expansion of the state administration dispute object after the enactment of Law Number 30 of 2014 concerning Government Administration and the supreme court regulation (Perma) Number 2 of 2019 concerning Guidelines for Government Action Dispute Resolution and Authority to Adjudicate Unlawful Conducts by the Government Agencies and/or Officials (onrechtmatige overheidsdaad / OOD). Conducted through normative juridical research method, this research-based paper examined the interviews through judges at PTUN Jakarta and Bandung and the main data source within this qualitative analysis serves as the secondary data or literature data.

Conceptual Underpinning

Purpose – This paper aims to examine the recent jurisprudence of the Supreme Court concerning the registration of land as a town or village green (TVG). This area of law has proved contentious over the past decade and shows no sign of relenting. Most recently, in April 2014, the Supreme Court was asked to determine whether use that is pursuant to a statutory right could be qualifying use for the purposes of village green registration, which requires 20 years use “as of right”. Design/methodology/approach – The paper starts by summarising the law relating to the registration of land as a TVG and identifies the current problem that the courts are grappling with, namely the “by right” defence. After analysing the two leading authorities in relation to this point, the paper makes a judgment on the operation and conceptual underpinning of the “by right” defence. Findings – The paper concludes that the “by right” defence in the context of village green registration is a functioning concept that prevents the registration of land as a town and village green whenever the use relied upon is indulged in pursuant to a statutory right. Furthermore, the defence should also be construed with the pre-existing test for use “as of right” rather than being recognised as an additional limb to this test. Originality/value – The value of this paper is that it seeks to clarify an area of planning and property law that is fraught with conceptual uncertainty, and seeks to re-align the law of town and village greens with its prescriptive underpinnings.

Law Making

The techniques used by courts to interpret statutes can be characterized as inconsistent, and at times, excessive. Current methodologies of statutory interpretation often reflect deeply normative views about the appropriate institutional role of the legislative and judicial branches of law-making, but this characterization of the debate is misleading. Rather, the problem lies with properly discerning legislative meaning and intent in full awareness of the limitations and possibilities of statutes as communicative devices. The author suggests a new methodology of statutory interpretation, whereby courts analogize the facts before them with certain paradigm cases. This methodology serves to constrain judicial discretion and enables courts to fill gaps in legislation in connection with novel cases.

Abstract This article examines the attitude of the Supreme Court of Israel towards international law in the past decade, focusing on cases concerning the Occupied Territories. It compares the decisions of the past decade to those of the preceding decade, which were characterized as developing a “jurisprudence inspired by international law.” The article argues that the status of international law in decisions that regard the Occupied Territories has, overall, declined. While the international law of occupation still operates, officially, as the governing law in the Occupied Territories, the emphasis on compliance with the norms of international law in the Court’s decisions has decreased. Instead of relying on international law, the Court has increased its reliance on Israeli administrative law, and, in recent years, on Israeli constitutional law. As a result, the distinction between the Occupied Territories and Israel is blurred. The article argues that this shift is consistent with a deliberate eradication of the distinction between Israel and the Occupied Territories by the legislator and the government. While the article does not argue that the Court intentionally supports this eradication, it does argue that it facilitates it.

The law of patent, trademark law, copyright law and the law relating to industrial designs are the statutory enactments forming part of intellectual property law which have a bearing on the transfer of technology. There is one more branch of intellectual property law which also has a bearing on the transfer of technology and that is the law relating to confidential information or law relating to confidentiality. This law is not a written law; it is judge made law, in the sense that it is developed through cases.
