Courts and the EU Commission favor alternative dispute resolution (ADR) in this field, arbitral institutions start publishing specific rules, and the Munich IP Dispute Resolution Forum has worked out the first in-depth guidelines on SEP/FRAND arbitration. Nonetheless, a number of fundamental legal questions remain open and parties have to make complex strategy decisions when they think about entering into alternative dispute resolution on SEP/FRAND matters. This paper addresses, therefore, key aspects of SEP/FRAND ADR, including arbitrability, choice of law and applicable procedural rules, framing of the arbitration clause, (limited) confidentiality, combinations of state and alternative dispute resolution, and competition law challenges to the enforcement of arbitral awards under the New York Convention.","PeriodicalId":237792,"journal":{"name":"Gewerblicher Rechtsschutz und Urheberrecht","volume":"7 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-10-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125351662","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

On the basis of that analysis, a detailed examination will be made of the latest CJEU ruling to apply this framework, Case C-314/12, UPC Telekabel Wien GmbH v Constantin Film Verleih GmbH on the lawfulness of open-ended blocking injunctions against internet access providers.","PeriodicalId":237792,"journal":{"name":"Gewerblicher Rechtsschutz und Urheberrecht","volume":"39 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127549575","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
