Standard Essential Patents and Antitrust

Last week, I participated in a panel discussion on standard essential patents and antitrust at the Washington Legal Foundation.  The panel was entitled, “Standard Essential Patents: Where do IP Protections End and Antitrust Concerns Begin?”  It was a great panel, and I think everyone did a really good job at avoiding any unnecessary technical jargon ...

Section 5 of the FTC Act and monopolization cases: A brief primer

In the past two weeks, Members of Congress from both parties have penned scathing letters to the FTC warning of the consequences (both to consumers and the agency itself) if the Commission sues Google not under traditional antitrust law, but instead by alleging unfair competition under Section 5 of the FTC Act. The FTC is rumored to be ... Section 5 of the FTC Act and monopolization cases: A brief primer

The market realities that undermine the antitrust case against Google

As the Google antitrust discussion heats up on its way toward some culmination at the FTC, I thought it would be helpful to address some of the major issues raised in the case by taking a look at what’s going on in the market(s) in which Google operates. To this end, I have penned a ... The market realities that undermine the antitrust case against Google

My latest article: A Signaling Theory of Law

Available here.  Although not the first article to build on Orin Kerr’s brilliant paper, A Theory of Law (blog post here) (that honor belongs to Josh Blackman’s challenging and thought-provoking paper, My Own Theory of the Law) (blog post here), I think this is an important contribution to this burgeoning field.  It’s still a working paper, though, ...

Dear DOJ: Take a Look at the Law Schools.

The U.S. Department of Justice sued eBay last week for agreeing not to poach employees from rival Intuit. According to the Department’s press release, “eBay’s agreement with Intuit hurt employees by lowering the salaries and benefits they might have received and deprived them of better job opportunities at the other company.” DOJ maintains that agreements among ...

Podcast Panel: Software Patents – Boon or Bane for Technological Innovation?

http://www.fed-soc.org/publications/detail/boon-or-bane-for-technological-innovation-software-patents-podcast Although pure software patents are only a couple decades old, they have become the focus of a heated innovation policy debate.

The Case for Copyright

Forget remedies – FairSearch doesn’t even have a valid statement of harm in its Google antitrust criticism

After more than a year of complaining about Google and being met with responses from me (see also here, here, here, here, and here, among others) and many others that these complaints have yet to offer up a rigorous theory of antitrust injury — let alone any evidence — FairSearch yesterday offered up its preferred ...

How Many Patents Make a “Patent War”?

I have a guest blog posting up on Intellectual Ventures’ blog on why a patent war — or “patent thicket” in scholarly parlance — cannot be defined solely in terms of the number of patents involved in the legal and commercial conflict.   Check it out at: http://www.intellectualventures.com/index.php/insights/archives/how-many-patents-make-a-patent-war As an aside, this issue is important because ...

ITC Patent Cases Dramatically Drop, or Another Patent Litigation Myth Bites the Dust

The claim that there is a “patent litigation explosion” is a myth, but there’s a related patent litigation myth that has proven cantankerously resilient in the patent policy debates — there’s an “explosion” of patent-owners racing to the International Trade Commission (ITC) who are obtaining exclusion orders against infringers. Well, this argument has crashed and ... ITC Patent Cases Dramatically Drop, or Another Patent Litigation Myth Bites the Dust

Who’s Flying The Plane?

It’s an appropriate question, both figuratively and literally. Today’s news headlines are now warning of a looming pilot shortage. A combination of new qualification standards for new pilots and a large percentage of pilots reaching the mandatory retirement age of 65 is creating the prospect of having too few pilots for the US airline industry. ...
