Certainty vs. Fairness? Must We Choose?

Posted on February 11, 2009 by Victoria Pynchon

Thanks to @IPStrategist (Jackie Hutter of the IP Asset Maximizer Blog) for calling our attention to Duncan Bucknell's intriguing post at the IP Think Tank, Certainty or fairness - what would you choose? 

If you had to choose between business certainty and fairness, what would you choose? 

If the intellectual property laws could be codified so that the result in intellectual property disputes is always certain - even though it might not be fair - would that be ok?  Or would you prefer that the legislative guidelines remain broad and the fine details in each circumstance be worked out in context - in litigation?  (As happens today?)

Link on the title above to continue reading.  And while you're on Jackie's blog, check on this post on the micro-firm model of providing client service in the downturn.  In fact, just SLEEP with Jackie's blog.  If you could read only a single blog; or were permitted to take just one to a desert island, hers is the one, particularly during hard times calling for innovation and efficiency.
