Trademark infringement and passing off remediesSolubilis
A trademark refers to a design, expression, or symbol that identifies products or services of a particular source. Trademarks play an essential role in protecting consumers and promoting economic growth by enabling quick purchasing decisions. Registration of a trademark offers better legal protection against infringement. Infringement involves unauthorized use of a registered trademark and can be addressed through civil proceedings like injunctions or damages claims, or criminal complaints. For unregistered trademarks, the remedy is an action for "passing off" which protects goodwill and prevents misrepresentation of goods or services.

Intellectual Property Rights In India: Patents Trademarks And Copyrights JRA & Associates
Intellectual property (IP) refers to creations of the mind, such as inventions; literary and artistic works; designs; and symbols, names and images used in commerce.
IP is protected in law by, for example, patents, copyright and trademarks, which enable people to earn recognition or financial benefit from what they invent or create. By striking the right balance between the interests of innovators and the wider public interest, the IP system aims to foster an environment in which creativity and innovation can flourish.

Intellectual property encompasses ideas and concepts that can be sold, such as songs written by songwriters. There are three main types of intellectual property: copyrights, which protect original creative works; patents, which prohibit others from recreating an invention for a specified period; and trademarks, which identify companies and products through images, phrases or designs to distinguish them from competitors. Copyright law provides exclusive rights to copy and distribute works, while patent law protects inventions for up to 20 years, requiring disclosure of details. Trademarks automatically lead consumers to link a product with its creator.
This document provides an overview and introduction to key concepts in trademark law, including definitions of trademarks, trade names, and trade dress. It discusses the differences and overlaps between trademark, patent, copyright, and domain name laws. Specifically, it examines two seminal Supreme Court cases on trade dress - Two Pesos and Wal-Mart Stores - and the TrafFix Devices case that addressed the boundaries between trademark and patent protection. The document analyzes when functional aspects of a product may be eligible for trademark versus patent protection.
The document discusses various topics related to patent searching and drafting patent claims including:
1) The purposes of conducting patent searches such as avoiding infringement and monitoring competitors.
2) Resources for conducting patent searches such as online databases and tools from patent offices which provide time-efficient and cost-effective access to comprehensive international patent information.
3) Key considerations for drafting patent claims including writing broad and narrow claims to fully cover the invention while avoiding prior art and unnecessary limitations.
A patent is a right to monopolize an invention. A would-be inventor specifies the scope of activities from which he wants to exclude others (the claims), and submits it to the Patent Office. Patent Office evaluates whether these claims depict an invention within the sense of the Patent law and whether the invention is correctly disclosed and industrially applicable (formal examination). Some patent offices will moreover examine whether the invention is new and non-obvious (substantive examination). If the application passes the examination hurdles, the Patent Office grants the applicant exclusive rights to produce and market the invention for a period of 20 years

Co-owned Patent Disputes in Vietnam What to Do .pdfKenfoxLaw
A co-owned patent arises when two or more parties jointly create an invention and seek patent protection for it. How if an invention is created by two parties, but just one party is named as inventor and owner while the other is only named as “inventor”? Can it cause any legal consequences? What can the other inventor do in such a case if the inventor who filed the patent application does not reach an amicable agreement on a co-owned patent? In recent news, the Intellectual Property Offices of Vietnam (IP VIETNAM) have been dealing with a case regarding “the right to file a patent application” in case of co-owned patent, highlighting the importance of understanding the legal requirements for patent filing and ownership. This article will focus on the specifics of this case and examine its implications for intellectual property rights in Vietnam.
The Federal Circuit affirmed in part and reversed in part a district court's judgment regarding patent infringement. It affirmed the judgment of infringement of a fourth system as a sanction for failing to fully respond to interrogatories. It reversed findings of infringement for the first two systems because the patent required an unmodified point of sale device, but testimony only showed the systems could use one, not that they actually did. It affirmed that a third system was covered by a license agreement. The Supreme Court ruled that patent exhaustion does not allow reproducing patented seeds through planting and harvesting without permission. The Federal Circuit affirmed that litigation activities alone do not satisfy the domestic industry requirement for the ITC.
The Federal Circuit Review is a monthly newsletter featuring the latest case summaries handed down from the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit.
In this Issue:
• Judgment of Infringement Entered as Sanction
• Patent Exhaustion Does Not Apply to Harvested Seeds
• Judges Disagree on § 101 Standards

The document then lists different forms of intellectual property and provides examples of free patent and non-patent databases that can be used to search for patent information and technical documents.
This document discusses patent infringement, including what it is, types of infringement, how to judge infringement, and potential consequences. Patent infringement occurs when someone makes, uses, or sells a patented invention without permission from the patent holder. There are two types of infringement: direct infringement involves directly using the patented invention, while indirect infringement involves supplying parts that can only be used with a patented invention. To determine if infringement occurred, a court will analyze the patent claims and see if they encompass the accused device or process. Potential consequences of infringement include barriers to innovation, damage to economic and legal systems, and financial remedies determined in court cases.
