SUMMARY:Webinar: The Use of International Law in Domestic Courts and International Tribunals
DESCRIPTION:Robert “Bob” Pauw\, a partner with Gibbs Houston Pauw in Seattle\, Washington\, will focus on the use of international law in U.S. domestic courts and at the Inter American Commission on Human Rights (IACHR). Mr. Pauw will discuss exhaustion of domestic remedies\, the procedure for bringing claims to the IACHR\, and the enforceability of decisions issued by international tribunals. Although under the Constitution international law is part of “the supreme Law of the Land\,” courts and agencies may be reluctant to follow requirements of international law. Often international law is not directly enforceable in United States courts and it can be difficult to convince courts and agencies to follow international law norms. Mr. Pauw will discuss how\, in spite of these difficulties\, international law may be useful for purposes of constitutional and statutory interpretation\, and ways to facilitate consideration of international law by courts and agencies. The IACHR cases which will be discussed involve removal proceedings under U.S. immigration law. \nPresented by the International Law Section\nCo-Sponsored by the Immigration Law Section \nRegistration for this event is now closed. \n\nAbout the Presenters\nRobert “Bob” Pauw\, Founding Partner\, Gibbs Houston Pauw \nRobert Pauw is a founding partner of Gibbs Houston Pauw.

Mr. Pauw has been a faculty member at the American Immigration Lawyers Association (“AILA”) Litigation Training Institute and an Adjunct Professor of Immigration Law at the Seattle University School of Law.

SUMMARY:Webinar: A SCOTUS Review of IP Cases in the Recent 2020 Term and its Implications for Constitutional Jurisprudence in Other Areas of Law
DESCRIPTION:As has been the case in several of the past terms\, the U.S. Supreme Court has rendered decisions involving intellectual property law issues that have broader implications which also touch upon other areas of law. So too\, in this most recent term\, with the Court’s opinions in United States v. Arthrex\, Inc. et al.\, 141 S.Ct. 1970 (2021) (Constitutionality of APJs under the Appointments Clause); Google LLC v. Oracle America\, Inc.\, 141 S.Ct. 1183 (2021) (Copyright fair use and application programming interface software (“API”)); and Minerva Surgical\, Inc. v. Hologic\, Inc.\, et al. 141 S.Ct. 2298 (2021) (assignor estoppel). This webinar will discuss these Supreme Court decisions within the IP law context as well as the potential impact of the decisions on other areas of law. \nThe webinar will also take a forward look at the next term for a case that\, although it was not decided in the current term\, and the petition for certiorari is still pending\, the Court has invited the Solicitor General to weigh in on at the petition stage. The American Axle & Manufacturing\, Inc. v. Neapco Holdings LLC\, et al.\, No. 20-891\, U.S. Sup. Ct. (March 1\, 2021)\, has generated a considerable amount of attention since it concerns a highly controversial issue of patent eligibility that continues to stymie congressional patent law reform efforts\, and which has a direct impact on U.S. economic and national security interests as well as innovators\, investors\, and entrepreneurs across the entire spectrum of industries from Pharma to Big Tech. \nPresented by the Intellectual Property Section \n\nAbout the Presenter\nRobert J.
