Editorial Policy

The Brand is a non-political forum for the balanced presentation of intellectual property news. The Brand attempts to present the arguments and positions of both sides equally in any given legal controversy.  Whenever possible, this is done by posting the actual pleadings, which are filed with a court by the plaintiffs and defendants in each case. 

While The Brand does not take sides in any legal controversy, we do encourage respect for the law.  Additionally, we encourage our readers to respect the moral and legal rights of intellectual property owners.

The Brand publishes news and feature articles written by student authors at the University of Louisville, Louis D. Brandeis School of Law.  All editorial decisions are made by student editors.  Additionally, The Brand publishes articles written by attorneys who are members of the Louisville Bar Association’s Intellectual Property Section, and interviews with other legal practitioners.  The views expressed in these articles and interviews are not necessarily those of The Brand.

If you have a question, concern, or suggestion, regarding anything on The Brand, please email us at thebrand@louisville.edu
