IE 447 Chapter 4 HW Geovani Baaklini Reviewing: 1. Since Hallowed never filed a trademark application with the US Patent and Trademark Office, neither their trademark nor trade dress would be protected. 2. Halo 2 would violate Trent and Xavier's patent if they had one because a patent gives the inventor complete security and ownership of a product. 3. Trent and Xavier were never granted a patent for Hallowed, so they are unable to file a lawsuit against the creators of Halo 2 for copyright infringement. This implies that they lack the legal authority to defend what they have created. 4. This brings up concerns about the sale of trade secrets. Though ideas cannot be patentable, they can be protected under the laws governing trade secret protection. Trent and Xavier may be eligible for financial compensation from the company that created Halo 2 if they can demonstrate that the original concept belonged to them and was stolen and sold. Case Problems: 1. Exetron violates John and Andrew's patent by using a device that is like their hard-bearing device. This is so that the device can still serve its original purpose even if it is being used for a different purpose. John and Andrew did not grant Exetron permission to use and market their comparative device. 2. For his class, Professor Wise distributed copies of the textbook notes. The professor can defend himself in this situation by using the fair use doctrine. This enables the professor to make copies for legitimate educational purposes without having to pay royalties or other penalties for violating the authors' or publishers' copyright. 3. Redwin Wilchcombe willingly wrote, sang, and recorded the song at Lil Jon & the East Side Boyz's request. Redwin Wilchcombe was aware that the song would be included in the album when they were recording it. The song may be used by the LJESB under a license. As a result, Redwin's lawsuit against LJESB for copyright infringement is barred. 8. 1. Because the course pack was copied, custom copies were against the law. When ideas are copied, copyrights are violated. The offender is responsible for paying the owner back for any harm caused by the infringement. However, since the items were copied for educational purposes, custom copies may argue fair use. 2. In this scenario, the copyright owner's company would suffer losses. The person who copied and sold the book or journals would be responsible for paying these damages.
