Section 337 provides powerful, efficient and rapid remedies for a wide range of unfair methods of competition involving imported goods. Most often used to combat products alleged to infringe patents, Section 337 can also be used for cases involving trade secrets, trademarks, copyrights, and other forms of unfair competition.
This program will discuss help you understand when Section 337 investigations should be considered as an alternative to district court litigation, what remedies and defenses are available, and some of the recent decisions from the Federal Circuit and ITC that are shaping how Section 337 investigations are litigated. While Section 337 can be a power tool in the arsenal for protecting intellectual property rights, these cases move very quickly and one must understand the unique aspects of a Section 337 case, whether representing complainants or respondents, in order to successfully navigate these sometimes-turbulent waters. This program will benefit those new to Section 337 practice as well as experienced ITC litigators wanting to learn about the latest trends and developments in this fast-paced forum.
