Patent Infringement  This is when one’s patent rights are used by others without the express permission of the patent holder.  A patent holder may recover damages and other remedies against a patent infringer that includes “disgorgement of profits” (taking the profits way from the infringer)  Patents must be filed.

Copyright Infringement  Copyright holders can sue those who use their works without permission or authorization.  A copyright holder can recover damages which also include “disgorgement of profits”.  Copyrights attach automatically when the work is created and no filing is necessary. However it is advisable to file for a copyright so that the creator has a legal presumption in court that they were the 1 st in time and creator should there be litigation.

The Fair Use Doctrine  The copyright holder’s rights in the work are not absolute and there are times when use of the copyright work is legal. The main legal theory in this are is called the “Fair Use Doctrine”.  This law permits certain limited unauthorized use of copyrighted materials under the following exceptions:

Elements of Fair Use Doctrine The following are protected under this doctrine: 1. Educational uses or quotations for scholarly or technical work. 2. Parody or satire work. 3. News reports that offer a brief quotation of the work.

Elements of Fair Use Doctrine 4. Reproduction by a teacher or student of a small part of the work to illustrate a lesson. 5. Minor, incidental reprinting of copyrighted work in a news story or broadcast of an event being reported. 6. Legislative or judicial reproduction for legal reasons (case writing, passing laws etc..)

Trademark Infringement  Third parties are liable for unauthorized use of trademarks and may be ordered to “disgorge” all profits.  The owner may stop an infringing activity if they prove that: The defendant infringed the plaintiff’s mark by using it in an unauthorized manner, and The defendant infringed the plaintiff’s mark by using it in an unauthorized manner, and Such use is likely to cause confusion, mistake, or deception of the public as to the origin of the goods or services.
