Abstract

The unbounded territory known as cyberspace poses many jurisdictional questions. This Article presents and attempts to answer some of these questions as they relate to intellectual property ownership. The first section gives some background information on the Internet. The second section introduces some of the problems faced by owners of intellectual property who utilize the Internet. The third section discusses the jurisdictional questions posed by Internet infringment litigation. The fourth section discusses personal jurisdiction generally. A case study of existing cases dealing with Internet infringment follows and the Article concludes with a proposal for the most efficient and effective solution.
