About the session:

This roundtable discussion considered the recently reignited Havana Club rum litigation, a case study in the opportunities and challenges of intellectual property litigation related to Cuba. Since the 1980s, Bacardi, the distributor of Havana Club in the U.S., has been embroiled in on-and-off lawsuits against Cubaexport and Pernod Ricard, the joint venture that owns the Havana Club mark in Cuba. With the recent opening of commercial relations with Cuba and the PTO’s renewal of the Cuban-owned mark in the U.S., this litigation has reached uncharted territory. Using the example of the Havana Club case, the panel explored how U.S. firms should litigate intellectual property disputes with Cuban entities. The panel focused on both the U.S. and Cuban intellectual property regimes, the international players involved, and the role of the embargo in U.S.-Cuba commercial litigation.

About the session:

The “Panama Papers” exposed financial dealings of some of the world’s richest and most powerful individuals including a number of high ranking officials in Latin America. The papers include financial records, legal documents, and correspondences dating back over 40 years. These files reveal secret offshore accounts of current and former world leaders as well as individuals with close ties to political and business figures around the globe. A number of Latin American leaders are allegedly implicated in this corruption. The Panama Papers leak will likely raise legal issues for years to come. The panelists discussed the legal ramifications of the Panama Papers, including issues of law relating to cyber security, white-collar crimes, international litigation and finance.
