REVIEWING

The text ‘Resolution in a neutral forum’ by Jeremy Winter deals with international arbitration in commercial cases. According to the text, lawyers appeal to the centres of international arbitration (the best of them are in Paris, London, Geneva, Stockholm, New York, Hong Kong and Singapore) looking for quick, effective, confident and reliable arbitrators relying on certain factors. In conclusion, the author underlines the idea that British national legislation has to lend its support to arbitration.
The next text under the title ‘Court to hear key case on discrimination’ by Patti Waldmeir mentions a case of the US Supreme Court concerning punitive damages paid for sex discrimination in an office. From the text we know the order of the USA justice system, from trial court to the Supreme Court. Summing it up, the US Chamber of Commerce Stephen Bokat assumed that punitive damages would soon become the norm, not the exception.
The article ‘Brussels files suit over bilateral aviation deals’ by Michael Smith, focuses on a case in the European Court of Justice including eight European states and the USA. It should be noted that British Airlines want an alliance with American ones because customers travel worldwide now. On the whole, one can safely say that BA plans concluding code-sharing agreement with American.
A European Law Report from Luxemburg named ‘Can ‘Cannon’ be confused with ‘Canon’?’ deals with the case between Canon Kabushiki Kaisha and Metro-Goldwyn-Meyer Inc. concerning reputation of a trademark. It is clear from the text that the court judged two positions of similarity: distinctive reputation of former marks and likelihood of confusion. All things considered, there could be likelihood of confusion even where the public perception was that the goods or services had different places of production.
