It contains an extensive analysis of the United States, the European Union (EU), selected EU Member States (Germany, France, the Netherlands, Belgium, the United Kingdom and Poland), China, India, Japan and South Korea. It covers both preliminary (interim) and permanent injunctions. In numerous jurisdictions, courts have realized that injunctive relief should not be available automatically in case of patent infringement. Particularly in the wake of the US Supreme Court decision in eBay v. MercExchange, it has become clear that granting an injunction may in some cases enable abuse by patent holders in order to obtain royalties exceeding significantly the value of the patent-protected invention or that it may be manifestly against the public interest.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat's in this book: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Recognizing that patent disputes have become truly global disputes and responding to the growing need to provide a comprehensive and flexible framework for the application of injunctive relief, twelve patent law experts, both academics and well-known practitioners familiar with practice in their particular jurisdictions, offer analyses of such elements of patent law injunctions as the following: \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eaccess to SEPs;\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eoperations of patent assertion entities;\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003etrolls and patent privateers;\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eequitable nature of injunctive relief as a source of flexibility;\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eabuse of right and competition law defences to injunctive relief as sources of flexibility;\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eanalysis of EU instruments that could be used in the interpretation of Member State implementing laws;\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003econditions for the application of tools such as equity, competition law or general doctrines such as abuse of rights;\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003ecircumstances when injunctions should be denied to patentees even though a valid patent was infringed;\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003ecomplex products cases where patents protect minor parts of the technologies; and\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eadvantages and disadvantages of various approaches to injunctive relief.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cp\u003eA proposal for an optimal model of granting injunctions is also included.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow this will help you: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Given that there is a growing consensus as to the circumstances in which injunctions should be available to the patentees and the circumstances when injunctions should be denied, a comprehensive analysis of the various legal doctrines that justify a more flexible approach towards injunctive relief is warranted. This book will give patent law practitioners and in-house counsel the opportunity to draw from the experience of other jurisdictions where courts faced similar problems. Policymakers, patent office officials, academics and researchers in intellectual property law will also welcome this approach.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Rafal Sikorski\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 9041194576\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9789041194572\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Kluwer Law International\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/28\/2018\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 284\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.27lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.80h x 6.30w x 0.80d","brand":"Rafal Sikorski","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44079547810047,"sku":"9789041194572","price":200.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_08cbbf49-1afb-47c2-a453-8332ada235d1.jpg?v=1685481775","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/patent-law-injunctions-rafal-sikorski-9789041194572","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
