• Princo, Patent Pools, and the Risk of Foreclosure: A Framework for Assessing Misuse

This Note explores various theories of patent misuse as they relate to patent pools. Taking into account varying ideological underpinnings of misuse, this Note proposes a framework for rule of reason analysis of anticompetitive foreclosure of alternative technologies. The framework offers a phased analysis, borrowed from antitrust law, to focus the inquiry on the harms patent misuse seeks to deter in patent-pool licensing practices. The goal of the proposed framework is to increase operational clarity to modern, innovative firms and provide guidance to courts when applying rule of reason analysis to determine whether anticompetitive foreclosure could result from a challenged use of a patent pool.
