Spicy IP

My favourite Intellectual Property portal has recently launched a "Basic Case Law Series". The first post in there pretty much says it all about the purposes of venturing out on that endeavour, and until TDL finds a topic that piques his interest, this should preclude my followers from feeling deprived in the interim...

Bankruptcy Code passes its first brush with the SC with flying colours

The Supreme Court has recently been as busy with landmark decisions as our blog hasn't, rattling out a steady stream of must-read judgments. My billions of followers must have been wondering what my take is on the triple-talaq and right to privacy decisions, but I'm really not going to write anything about those two. TDL is frankly a touch embarrassed that it took this long for our judiciary to arrive at those conclusions, so let's just leave it at that.

The SC's latest significant decision, delivered yesterday (31st Aug) does deserve plenty of attention though. The court hasn't had an occasion to expound on the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code, 2016 before this, and they have embraced the opportunity wholeheartedly. Justice Nariman is in fine form, delivering a judgment that will come in handy in all future cases and transactions dealing with the Code, and his commentary deserves our full attention. More of the same please!
