Principles of the Law - Principles of Law - Intellectual Property: Principles Governing Jurisdiction, Choice of Law, and Judgments in Transnational Disputes

This timely work contains principles for resolving transnational intellectual property disputes. Transnational protection of rights to intellectual property is a critical issue today when intellectual property can be transferred around the globe – legally or illegally – with several clicks on a keyboard. These principles adapt traditional legal concepts to the world of the Internet and foster coordination between civil-law and common-law jurisdictions.

Topics include:
• Personal jurisdiction over the defendant
• Jurisdiction over subject matter and simplification
• Applicable law on title to and transfer of rights
• Recognition and enforcement of foreign judgments

This work represents the Institute’s first engagement with Internet Law. Meetings at The Hague concerning international jurisdiction and judgments led ALI to begin its work on Recognition and Enforcement of Foreign Judgments. That project concluded in 2005 when the Institute recommended enactment of a U.S. federal statute that would codify analysis based on careful study of American and foreign law. The same Hague discussions suggested the need for sophisticated study of national laws concerning transnational protection of rights to intellectual property. The Institute began this project in 2001 to address that need.
