Finally, the Intellectual Property Lawyers Organisation is hosting a dinner on 11 June at Gray’s Inn on Copyright v. Fundamental Rights in the EU. The Grand Chamber of the Court of Justice of the European Union is currently deliberating on three copyright cases – Funke Medien, Pelham and Spiegel Online involving a clash between copyright and other fundamental rights. Judging by the Opinions issued by Advocate General Szpunar, the decisions in these cases are likely to be significant to the development of EU copyright law.

No comments:

All comments must be moderated by a member of the IPKat team before they appear on the blog. Comments will not be allowed if the contravene the IPKat policy that readers' comments should not be obscene or defamatory; they should not consist of ad hominem attacks on members of the blog team or other comment-posters and they should make a constructive contribution to the discussion of the post on which they purport to comment.

It is also the IPKat policy that comments should not be made completely anonymously, and users should use a consistent name or pseudonym (which should not itself be defamatory or obscene, or that of another real person), either in the "identity" field, or at the beginning of the comment. Current practice is to, however, allow a limited number of comments that contravene this policy, provided that the comment has a high degree of relevance and the comment chain does not become too difficult to follow.
