The Antitrust Modernization Commission has requested public comment on several questions relating to its New Economy Study Plan.

AIPLA submits this comment in response to two of those questions:

(1) What significance should be attached to the existence of a patent or copyright in assessing market power in tying cases and in other contexts, and

(2) Specific comments on the reports on the patent system issued by the Federal Trade Commission and the National Academies Board on Science, Technology, and Economic Policy.
