| Richard Green (Fine Paintings) v. McClendon | Top |
| Woman Loses Breach Suit Over $4.2 Million Painting; E-Mails Satisfied Statute of Frauds | |
| The Endangered Ostrich Defense: Actual Belief Exception Questioned | Top |
| In their Second Circuit Review, Paul, Weiss, Rifkind, Wharton & Garrison members Martin Flumenbaum and Brad S. Karp discuss a recent case where the majority upheld a conviction despite the trial court's failure to include the subjective defense of actual belief, part of the conscious avoidance standard jury charge. The erosion of this defense to the conscious avoidance doctrine creates a definite risk in the corporate context, where knowledge could be implied up the corporate ladder. | |
| Federal Circuit Clarifies Law on Contempt and Reissue | Top |
| In their Patent and Trademark Law column, Robert C. Scheinfeld of Baker Botts and Parker H. Bagley of Goodwin Procter discuss the Federal Circuit's implementation of the "two-step KSM analysis" in the recent Tivo v. EchoStar decision and how that ruling suggests that contempt proceedings may be more streamlined and focused, and that counsel and litigants will be sure to seek certainty regarding the language of an injunction order sooner rather than later. | |
