Never Too Late: If you missed the IPKat last week!

This Kitten is delighted to bring you the 131th edition of Never Too Late covering the posts from 9 until 15 January!

Seeking an Arrow

GuestKat Eibhlin Vardy discusses Fujifilm Kyowa Kirin Biologics Co., Ltd v AbbVie Biotechnology Ltd & Anor [2017] EWCA Civ 1, which involves two appeals, both raising the question of whether a Court can grant a so called ‘Arrow declaration’, i.e. a declaration that “a product was old or obvious in patent law terms at a particular date”.


Yangjin Li shares a guest post analysing the reasons why the State Intellectual Property Office of China (SIPO) tops the World Intellectual Property Indicators of IP Offices based on receiving more patent applications, the quality of the patent applications filed and the impact of this patent activity on China.


GuestKat Rosie Burbidge discusses Bhayani & Anor v Taylor Bracewell LLP, [2016] EWHC 3360, a summary judgment in which addressed the question of whether there was passing off due to the use of the plaintiff’s family name as part of the law firm’s name after she had left the partnership.

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.
