Скачать или смотреть The (Mis)Use of Anti-Suit Injunctions in International IP Litigation

The propriety of anti-suit injunctions—that is, orders issued in one jurisdiction prohibiting a party from initiating or continuing litigation in another jurisdiction—has recently become a hot topic in international IP disputes. Chinese courts involved in these disputes are a primary reason why: the Shenzhen People’s Court has recently blocked litigants from enforcing their patent rights in other countries, including the United States. During this panel, we will discuss the use of anti-suit injunctions in international IP litigation, including the panelists’ views on recent anti-suit injunction cases and the future viability of this very powerful tool.
