DESCRIPTION
This course provides a unique perspective on investigations led by law enforcement, differing from those conducted by IP rights holders and covered in Course 112. Law enforcement led investigations focus primarily on criminal enforcement and some administrative enforcement, such as customs efforts. You will learn about the wide scope of law enforcement agencies involved in intellectual property crime enforcement, the types of criminal cases they handle, and how these cases evolve. The course will also discuss overlapping criminal issues.
Learning Objectives:
- Understand the roles and responsibilities of Law Enforcement Agencies.
- Identify key national and international agencies involved in illicit trade enforcement.
- Recognize the phases of an investigation, including intelligence gathering, case development, and enforcement actions.
- Explore best practices for intelligence sharing, case referrals, and joint investigations.
- Understand jurisdictional challenges and how to tailor investigative approaches accordingly.
- Assess the impact of enforcement actions on criminal networks and illicit markets.
