| A Kat in the hand is worth two in the bush |
Copyright
The oft-unappreciated impact of the pre-Statute of Anne Licensing Acts was brought to the fore by PermaKat Neil Wilkof, with a post detailing how they changed the course of English history.
Following her recent 4IP Council webinar on the topic, SpecialKat Hayleigh Bosher answered viewers' questions on copyright and music.
Patents
GuestKat Rose Hughes continued her coverage of UK patent exams with posts reporting on the mock PEBX exams, and on subsequent candidate feedback.
Keeping up with the Kardashians may have run its course, but Kat readers were able to keep up with recent developments in German patent litigation thanks to Kat friend Dr Lisa Schneider's guest post giving an overview of the past half-year in case law.
Trade Marks
Continuing from his earlier post drawing attention to the low appeal success rate from the UK IPO to the Appointed Person, Kat friend Ian Gill contributed a guest post highlighting various deficiencies in the current appeal process.

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.
