In their never-ending battle against Chinese and other international online infringers, some rightsowners have adopted an aggressive enforcement scheme that relies on sealed filings and ex parte TROs. Due to the fact that proceedings occur partially out of public purview, this enforcement scheme has been underdiscussed and has not received much critical scrutiny. This program will explain how the scheme works, document its prevalence, and show why it's likely an illegitimate enforcement practice.

 

Presented by:

Professor Sarah Burstein, Suffolk University Law School
Professor Eric Goldman, Santa Clara University School of Law
