这次挺身而出的 是两个州的司法部长 起诉总统、国土安全部部长 和所有与移民法相关的联邦执法机构 判决最早会在近两天 关于Trump禁穆令的法律诉讼的介绍 文| 李克宁 美国明康律师事务所中国知识产权部负责人 美国总统必须尽其所能保卫宪法,不能违背现有法律,不能违宪。 总统不可以立法,不可以改变法律,不可以拒绝执行现有法律。因此,即使新总统不喜欢前任总统推进的立法,也不能随意拒绝执行该法律 (例如“奥巴马医疗保险法”, 即使Trump先生不喜欢,在其被国会通过相应程序修改或推翻之前,也必须继续实施)。 新总统在实施执法过程中,需要颁布一些行政法规,但这些行政法规的颁布和实施,也要在已有的法律框架之内。关于这一点,最关键的是“美国行政程序法” (Administrative Procedure Act.) 问题是,如果一个总统无法无天,人民和政府的其他两个分支能怎么办? 如果国会认为总统有明显的违法违宪行为,可以启动弹劾程序。 一般情况下,国会的众议院可以拒绝拨款,参议院可以拒绝确认总统的任命。少数情况下甚至也可以起诉总统。但所能做的有限,尤其是现在两院都在共和党控制之下,国会多半不会限制特朗普的行为。 民众可以抗议,游行,政府工作人员可以消极怠工,但后果是自己犯罪,没有法律上的效用,只有等到下届选举。 有所谓的“公权的第四分支”新闻媒体,对一个一意孤行、不计后果的总统来说,也没有太多的直接作用。 最最有力的,是法院。 法院如果判总统的行为违法,违宪,总统就必须听从法院的。 他可以上诉,但上诉期间,不得违背法院判决。 可是,要想有法院介入,必须有人(原告)起诉,而且要符合一定的其他条件,法院才会受理起诉。 美国宪法的第三大条 (Article III) 规定了司法机构的在解释法律意义和判定是否违法的无上权威。但是,法院不可以凭空作出判决,必须要有真实的案例。简而言之,只有受到了确实而又具体伤害的受害人,才可以在有管辖权的法院起诉被告(总统、政府部门)。 法院必须要对本案有司法管辖权(法院要有义务和能力管),而且,赢了诉讼的一方,要能获得有效的、有意义的司法救济 (remedy) 。 在上面的背景下面,我们就可以来理解这两天闹得沸沸扬扬的 “Trump 禁穆令”和联邦地区法院的临时禁令、第九巡回法院的维持该临时禁令的临时判决了。 “ Trump 禁穆令,是白宫下令,在90天内禁止所有的来自七个穆斯林占多数的国家的所有非美国公民入境。所有的签证,包括有永久居留权(绿卡)的人,不管三七二十一,都不准入境;然后是在120天内禁止一些国家的难民入境。后来朝令夕改,允许有绿卡者入境。 根据其对美国现有移民法和国土安全相关法律的理解,现任总统认为该禁穆令不仅合法,而且是为了保护美国人民和国家利益最好的做法。 很多人认为这不对,歧视,会伤害美国的长远利益 (例如让更多人反美,加入暴恐组织, 影响美国在高科技和教育方面的长远竞争力) 等等。需要首先澄清的是,这个跟非法移民毫无关系:这些是合法拿到签证的移民和非移民。 这个禁穆令具体有谁是受害者?他们可能成为原告吗? 第一,上述的种种大道理,不可以构成法院接受起诉的理由。因为没有具体的受害者。 其次,那些具体的受害者,尤其是还没有踏上美国国土的非移民的外国人,根本没有起诉的资格。美国法律没有义务保护他们。 而且,美国政府确实可以随时收回已经签发的任何签证。 而且,美国宪法确实将国防、外交和相关的移民问题的所有权力交给了联邦政府(而不是州政府), 而且传统上,总统有非常大的权力来决定执行力度。 那些身在美国、绿卡持有者的家属,也许可以起诉。但可以想象,他们诉讼的艰难。 这次挺身而出的,首先是美国华盛顿州的司法部长,一天后,是明尼苏达州的司法部长 , 一起以两个州的名义,起诉总统、国土安全部部长,和所有与移民法相关的联邦执法机构。称这个禁穆令,损害了他们两个州的利益,包括两州的公民、州内的公司、学校的具体利益,也违背了州法。作为一个州的司法部长,有义务、有权力代表州政府和公民捍卫上述利益。 两个司法部长声称禁穆令违反了下述10条法律: 1. 美国宪法第五修正案:法律必须平等的保护所有人 (Fifth Amendment, equal protection of the law); 2. 美国宪法第五修正案:禁止联邦政府以任何形式优待一种宗教 (Fifth Amendment, establishment clause); 3. 美国宪法第五修正案:禁止联邦政府未经正当程序剥夺个人自由 (Fifth Amendment, procedural due process); 4.移民和公民归化法:禁止联邦政府在发放移民签证时有种族、国家、出生地、居住地方面的歧视 (The Immigration and Naturalization Act (“INA”), 8 U.S.C. §1152(a)(1)(A), prohibiting discrimination in the issuance of immigrant visas on the basis of race, nationality, place of birth, or place of residence); 5. 移民和归化法,规定所有到达美国港口、机场的非公民有权申请避难,而且暂时不被递解出境的权利 (INA § 1158 and 1231(b)(3): non-citizens arriving at the States’ ports of entry to apply for asylum and withholding of removal); 6. 联合国反酷刑国际公约 (美国已经签约并承认 生效,现在是美国法律的一条 8 U.S.C. §1231): 如果有相当的理由相信,当事人有可能在其祖国遭受酷刑,美国政府不可以在不情愿的情况下遣返任何当事人回到其祖国 (United Nations Convention Against Torture). 7. 恢复宗教自由法: 禁止联邦政府实质性的给宗教行为造成负担 (The Religious Freedom Restoration Act, 42 U.S.C. § 200bb-1(a), prohibits the federal government from substantially burdening the exercise of religion, even if the burden results from a rule of general applicability. ) 8. 行政程序法,要求联邦政府机构必须通过固定的程序方可颁布和实施影响个人实际权利的法规(包括一定的公示期、允许社会各界提修改意见等等)。 (The APA, 5 U.S.C. §§ 553 and 706(2)(D) requires that federal agencies conduct formal rule making before engaging in action that impacts substantive rights); 9. 同样,美国行政程序法禁止联邦政府机构采取任何随心所欲、违宪和违背法律的行为 (The APA, 5 U.S.C. §706(2) prohibits federal agency action that is arbitrary, unconstitutional and contrary to statute); 10. 美国宪法第十修正案:除明确归属与联邦政府的部分权力以外,所有权力属于州政府。联邦政府无权迫使州政府执行联邦法律 (Tenth Amendment, which reserves all powers not enumerated in the Constitution to the states, and prohibits the federal government from commandeering state legislative process. Prohibits federal government from compelling state governments to enact and enforce federal law). 上面的任何一条,最终只有最高法院才能决定。可是,成千上万的人由于禁穆令骨肉分离,工作受到严重影响,真是等不起。 因此,原告们要求法院颁布一个临时禁令 (TRO, temporary restraining order) ,在没有最终判决前,先临时禁止禁穆令的实施。 法院是不会轻易颁布TRO的。 只有法官认为原告很有可能赢,而且没有TRO原告会遭到不可弥补的损失,TRO的颁布符合公众利益,才会采取这种紧急救济措施。一个TRO在案子有初审结果前都有效,但是被告可以立即上诉。 联邦政府的律师(美国联邦司法部代理部长)已经上诉,但是输了。 第九巡回法院的两个法官维持了这个TRO。 不过巡回法院要求双方在极短的时间内 (加州时间周一中午前提交其论点;被告的答辩书必须在加州时间下午三点前提交, 判决最早会在加州时间当天下午六点或次日上午。 北京时间,提交和答辩分别是2月7日凌晨4点和7点) 提交更多的理由,以便进一步决定。鉴于此,联邦政府的律师们没有马上上诉至最高法院。 如果周二,第九巡回法院依然维持这个TRO,那么联邦政府的律师们马上就会上诉。但是,在最高法院作出决定之前,TRO依然有效,禁穆令就不能被执行。 如果最高法院推翻TRO,那么禁穆令又会马上被执行。因此所有被禁穆令所影响的签证持有者,最好尽快入境。 “ 所以现在的情况是,特朗普总统下了禁止部分外国人入境的禁穆令,位于华盛顿州的联邦地区法院下令禁止实行该禁穆令,特朗普总统的律师上诉,要求位于旧金山的联邦第九巡回上诉法院推翻禁止禁 穆令的法院禁令,第九巡回法院拒绝了总统的律师的上诉请求,但同意以特别紧急的方式听证双方的辩点。 具体关于本案两个原告的十条理由,是否会得到巡回法院然后是最高法院的认可? 甚至,在法院判令禁穆令确实违法之后,如果白宫拒不听从法院的指令,会发生什么? 且听下回分解。
看这个 MICHAEL LUO的网页 ,有华裔说有人问自己哪来的,其实他明知对方是在问自己是什么种族,却硬是不正面回答,而是说自己纽约哪的,出生在哪,直到对方问自己父母哪来的,才说是上海。为什么不痛痛快快说自己是 CHINESE 呢?好像 CHINESE 是件不光彩的事情似的,要隐藏一下。其实,这就是种族自卑心理作怪。自己瞧不起自己,也就不能怪别人歧视了。 大概10年前,我公司的第一个版权案子,被告是赛门铁克。当时我对知识产权方面的法律知道的很少,对联邦程序也不清楚,都不知道案子进展可以查 PACER,经常被律师(某大律师事务所的白人)蒙在鼓里。后来才知道PACER,发现该律师很多事情都瞒着我,立刻决定将其开除,换人。 于是找了另外的律师,一个看起来挺精炼的白人小老头,大概60岁了,自称还在某法学院教过书。第一次在我办公室见面,当然需要聊各种背景啊,等等之类,也算是互相了解。正聊着,他电话响了,是他太太打来,大概问他在哪干什么。这人说道,在跟客户面谈,“Heis a Chinese”。也不知是我听力好还是手机声音太大,那女士大概说,你这样说人家不好吧。这律师辩解说,"But he is proud of it." 哈哈。真是。可见在他们心里,CHINESE 是一个贬义词,称中国人是 CHINESE 近乎侮辱。生在美国的华人自己可能也这么认为。但是至少这个白人律师从我这得到了一个概念,我自己没有认为 CHINESE 是什么坏事。换言之,我具备种族自信,不会认为中国人比盎格鲁-撒克逊差。 当然了,鸦片战争中国被盎格鲁-撒克逊打败了,随后中国又经历了一系列的战败。这种战争造成的种族心理优势与劣势是客观存在的。但是 朝鲜战争改变了这个局面,所以我们说朝鲜战争也是一场人权战场。 生物的很多素质是基因决定,基因素质是客观的。人是一种生物,人也是如此。一个人首先得有种族自信,也就是说相信你自己这个种族的基因还行,进化程度相对可以。注意,这个种族自信是一个种族概念,而不是个体概念。你不能说,我家族基因还行。那不管用。因为你没法在脸上贴个标签说我家族基因不错。如果你认为自己种族基因不行,只认为自己家族基因可以,就出问题了。就像一头猪如果说自己基因特好,有什么用呢? 世界文明发展的涨落有变化,但种族的潜力是基因决定的。这一点不能忽略。 所以,海外华人要有尊严,先得自己明白CHINESE 这个遗传特征的是值得珍惜的。这就得了解自己的文化,自己的历史,从一个更大的角度、更长的时间尺度来看待民族地位问题,而不是拘泥于满清与民国时期的历史。 生长在中国国内的人极少有自我认同问题,没有 identity crisis。很多来自中国的如果别人问起哪来的,会说 PRC - The People's Republic。但在美国生长的华人孩子就难说了。贺梅在贝克家被抚养到基本懂事,就开始发现自己不是蓝眼睛,否认自己是中国人,对英文媒体说自己是墨西哥人。她回到中国后,这种自我否定心理就基本消失了。 记得我在北加州联邦法院起诉某上市公司侵权,等待陪审团裁决结果,因为陪审团随时可能出结果,大家也不能离开,被告律师也相当焦虑,找些话题聊天,聊到罗马帝国之类,话题转到了同时代的汉帝国。我就跟他们讲到,汉之前还有个大秦帝国 -- The GREAT CHIN EMPIRE that built the great wall。所谓 CHINESE,就是源自这个 CHIN。洋律们一听,原来如此,不是脆瓷器。美国出生的孩子的教育应该告诉他们 CHINESE 是何意。
前天在各个网站转了一下,看到有人提到岳东晓在联邦法院的一个知识产权官司,以前其他人也提到过。 案情是有个公司使用了岳的软件,没有支付费用,岳博士起诉对方侵犯版权与商标权。 几个月前,这个公司提出要把商标部分撤诉,岳东晓赢了那个回合。 后来双方又因为版权追诉期问题而意见不同。这个公司认为根据一个美国最高法的案子,版权纠纷中,原告只能追诉三年的侵权,岳是2015年起诉,只能追到2012年。岳东晓的观点是,应该按照发现规则计算,他是2014年才发现侵权,2015年就起诉了,起诉是在发现侵权的三年之内,应该可以一直追回去到2005年。这一点,法官也支持了岳东晓。两个情况差别很大,一个情况顶多是三年,一个10年。 今天看了下,发现岳这个官司和解了。法庭文件说:“the parties to this action have participated in a mediation and reached a settlement whereby Plaintiff shall receive valuable consideration”。案件各方参加了调解会议并且达成和解,原告将得到有价值的补偿。 这应该是一个双赢的结果,被告省去了更多的律师费,原告应该也节省了时间、生命,还得到了满意的补偿。 (不允许转载)
邹婧称罗秦告诉邹婧:【在他们打官司的过程中岳东晓自己也在打他自己的知识产权官司,曾经一直输一直输,(更多虚假陈述略去)。后来,在中国政府部门的介入帮助下才打赢了官司,且获得一大笔赔偿款。】 这一点罗秦在电话中否认了,认为邹婧所言虚假,因为我跟罗秦根本没有谈到过我的官司 。而且邹婧这个撒谎极为明显。看看贺梅案结束的时间以及我的知识产权案的时间就知道了。我参与贺梅案于2002年。贺梅案结束是2007年1月23日(田纳西最高法院最终判决日期)。 我公司对SYMANTEC的知识产权开始于2006年一月,而且我开始是压着对方打。直到郑一芳于2007年5月参与。我对GCM的案子开始于2006年11月,在取得对被告GCM的禁令与没收令后,双方和解。 参见下面的案卷: U.S. District Court California Northern District (San Francisco) CIVIL DOCKET FOR CASE #: 3:06-cv-00711-MJJ Netbula, LLC v.

美国法律既是严谨的又是灵活的,广大新移民生活在美国,不能想当然。NN 网民从桑兰案中可能得到了一个错误概念,以为在联邦法院打官司争议额必须大于 $75000 美金 (“ the matter in controversy exceeds the sum or value of $75,000”) 。但广大网民似乎没有明白,桑兰案并不涉及联邦法,这种案子本来应该是在州法院打的。只是因为桑兰与被告们属于不同州,根据美国宪法联邦法院也可以管辖(但争议金额必须大于7万5)。各位想一想,就应该明白金额固定的只有死合同之类的案子,对于任何 tort 来说,这个争议金额很容易可能超过7万5,比如诽谤该陪多少?可能是0,也可能是100万。 比如说, 违背 Lanham Act以及恶意诽谤需要作出的赔偿与惩罚性赔偿就只能由陪审团定了。所以,这个争议额一般根本不是问题。 我在之前介绍过,侵犯版权属于联邦法 Copyright Act 的管辖范围,这类案子根本没有争议额的要求。Copyright 对美国的发展是如此重要,乃至美国的创始人们把它写入了美国宪法,由联邦政府统一保护。对于那些不懂知识产权概念的新移民来说,这一点值得注意。 中西部网客提出了一系列的质疑,还是老生常谈的概念错误。即使不去逻辑推理,举例就知道了。那个下载 20首 mp3的单身母亲为什么要陪上百万美金? 原告难道证明自己因为别人下载了20首歌就损失了上百万? 当然不是。其实,那位下载者最初可以交几千块钱就了事,但她不干,原告的 settlement offer 就失效了。最终她需要赔偿的叫做 statutory damage, 也就是法定赔偿。对于蓄意侵权来说,每次侵权的法定赔偿上限为15万美金 。 原告可以在诉讼过程的任何时候选择索取实际赔偿+对方利润,或者法定赔偿。联邦版权法这样写道:【Statutory Damages. — (1) Except as provided by clause (2) of this subsection, the copyright owner may elect, at any time before final judgment is rendered, to recover... an award of statutory damages for all infringements involved in the action, with respect to any one work... in a sum of not less than $750 or more than $30,000 as the court considers just... (2) In a case where the copyright owner sustains the burden of proving, and the court finds, that infringement was committed willfully, the court in its discretion may increase the award of statutory damages to a sum of not more than $150,000.】 换言之,非蓄意侵权的最低赔偿是750, 最高 30,000。如果是蓄意侵权,则最高为15万,可以买2万包水饺了,一天吃一包,如果你不厌倦,可以吃55年 。估计如果你买这么多,还可以打折。骑自行车卖沙发如果每件利润100,那得卖1500件,自行车轮胎都会磨破、脸都会晒得脱皮。这就像一个一两重的iPhone 要800美金,一个几百斤的电冰箱可能也就这价-- 还 free delivery+free installation。由此可见,美国之所以科技发达、文化艺术事业兴旺是有原因的,那就是美国尊重知识、保护 发明创造 。在美国,价值的衡量不是看东西的重量或者你是否汗湿背心,而是知识、技术含量。 那么什么叫蓄意侵权呢? 这有两个要素,原告必须证明(1)被告侵权;(2)被告知道自己在侵权。 读者可能要说了,假如侵权者坚决撒谎,说自己就是不知道这侵权了,那你怎么办? 当然,这个判断最终是由陪审团做出,取决于陪审团是否相信被告。但是从法律上这个判断准则包括 “reckless disregard" 以及 ”willful blindness"。第九巡回法院写道:【要证明蓄意侵犯版权,原告必须证明(1)被告实际了解侵权活动;或者(2)被告的行为是源自对版权所有者权利的“鲁莽漠视”或者“蓄意无视”】(【To prove `willfulness' under the Copyright Act, the plaintiff must show (1) that the defendant was actually aware of the infringing activity, or (2) that the defendant's actions were the result of `reckless disregard' for, or `willful blindness' to, the copyright holder's rights'" 】)。 那些看多了电视、电影,以为美国法律空子好钻的应该明白一点,民事案件不像刑事案件。刑事案件的证明标准是 beyond a reasonable doubt,而民事责任的证明标准是 "more probable than not" (可能大于不可能)。
科普不存在抄袭,这好像是方舟子或者其粉丝们的一个辩解。听起来好像跟孔乙己的窃书不是偷一样 。但这是不成立的,孔乙己如果去书店窃书照样会被打一顿,抄科普作品也是抄袭。 所谓抄袭其实就是蓄意侵犯著作权的一种形式---willful or malicious copyright infringement。“抄袭”一词有一点道德上的含义。而著作权侵犯属于“严格责任侵权”(strict liability tort),不管你主观意识如何,你抄了就构成侵权。 根据中国与美国的法律以及相关国际条约,侵犯著作权等知识产权既有民事责任,也完全可能有刑事责任。 要搞清什么是抄袭,我们就得先搞清什么是著作权。在这里,我们把讨论限于文字作品。 什么是文字作品? 在美国著作权法里,文字作品指用文字、数字或者其他符号表达的作品(“ works ... expressed in words, numbers, or other verbal or numerical symbols or indicia...”, 17 U.S.C. S101, etc) ,中国相关法律是参照相关西方法律制定,也差不多。小说、诗词、文章等等当然是文字作品,计算机软件(无论是源代码还是执行码),也是文字作品。说穿了,文字作品就是符号的排列组合。科普作品当然属于文字作品。 什么是著作权? 这是由法律赋予给著作权所有人对相关作品的一系列专有权利,包括发表、复制、改编、创做衍生作品等。所谓专有权利就是其他人不能行使的权利。 发表、复制、改编等著作权是可以转让的。 另外还有一项署名权,顾名思义就是说这是谁的作品,这个署名权只属于原作者。 著作权是知识产权的一种,英文称intellectual property 。IP概念 是西方文明的一个重大发明,把智慧成果当成一种财产保护,以此鼓励创造与知识的分享,这也是西方文明突飞猛进的原因之一。 著作权如何产生? 当作者写下其作品的一瞬间,著作权就存在了。也就是说,你并不需要注册你的作品才有著作权。但在美国,如果要去起诉他人,你必须申请注册你的作品,而且如果在被告侵权之前注册还有各种好处,可以不需要证明自己的损失而索取法定赔偿。 举例说,如果你10年前在网上发表了篇文章(或者照片等),结果你发现三年前这篇文章被人抄袭了。在美国要起诉抄袭者,你需要先去注册一下,但你要获得赔偿必须证明自己的损失或者对方的获利。但如果你在4年前就注册了,那么由于这个侵权是在注册之后,抄袭者的日子就难过多了--因为你可以要求有法定赔偿(statutory damage)。 什么是侵犯著作权? 根据美国法律,侵犯著作权有且只有两个要素(1)原告拥有作品的著作权;(2)被告行使了作品的著作权 (注一)。 侵权最直接、最明显的是那种几乎一对一的复制,比如说把一段英文翻成中文,或者只做细微的改动(比如说只是把人名、地名换掉)。而比较隐蔽的侵权就需要进行更为复杂的分析,确定其相似度。 我举个例子,假如我进行牛顿力学与摩擦力的科普,自然规律是没有著作权保护的,但我用薄的鞋底作为例子进行一系列的讲解,这就产生了著作权,另外一个人如果按照我的文字,依样画葫芦写篇科普,那就侵权了。 抄多少算是侵权? 有些人以为要大段大段地抄,抄到百分之几十才能算侵权,这是误解。我见过的侵权案中最短的被告只是在一本书里抄了四个英语单词(见下面的案例),但被告所有相关的收入全部判给了原告。 从案例看,即使COPY很少的内容,后果也可能很严重。 如何维权? 由于知识产权诉讼费用高昂,除非侵权者获得大额利益,或者被侵权者有的是资本,一般来说,被侵权的人也不会去进行法律追究了。但是应该注意的是,法律往往是道德的底线,违法也往往意味着违背社会道德。所以,大家对抄袭的行为应该指责,而不是企图掩盖。 在美国,如果需要保护自己的著作权,应该将作品注册 --- http://www.copyright.gov ,注册之后,起诉侵权者时就愉快多了,因为被告可能得赔偿你的律师费,而这个费用很容易上几十万美金。 相关案例 1) 美国第九巡回法院的判例:COOK v. ROBBINS, 232 F.3d 736 (9th Cir, 2000) 这个案子里,原告写了一本书,里面有两个独特的词语组合“meter drop", "rolling stock"。被告办讲座的时候,发的资料里用了这两个词组。原告起诉被告侵犯COPYRIGHT。陪审团把被告讲座所获全部利润都判给了原告。审判庭法官认为抄的很少(还有其他理由),把陪审团的判决废了。联邦第九巡回法院发了一道措辞严厉的判决,说区法官概念不清,被告就是侵权了,维持陪审团原判。 2) 美国第八巡回法院的判例: Andreas v. Volkswagen of America, Inc., 336 F. 3d 789 (8th Cir, 2003) 原告Brian Andreas 作了一幅画,在画上写了一句话,全文是: "Most people don't know that there are angels whose only job is to make sure you don't get too comfortable fall asleep miss your life." 大众汽车公司雇佣了一家广告公司设计电视广告,这家广告公司设计了一个睡天使之类的画面,旁白说到: “"I think I just had a wake-up call, and it was disguised as a car, and it was screaming at me not to get too comfortable and fall asleep and miss my life." 原告起诉广告公司与大众汽车侵犯copyright。陪审团判决被告赔偿当年所卖相关汽车(AUDI)利润的10%。审判庭法官认为没有原告没有证明汽车的利润与这句话有关(广告还有其他内容),说没有证据说某个客户是听了这句话才买的车,因此废掉陪审团判决。但联邦巡回法院推翻下级法院的裁决,维持陪审团的判决。 注一: 值得注意的是,被告没有获得许可不是侵权的要素,那是被告的辩护,对此,我曾经以我在美国联邦法院的案例说明。某些原告就是在这个地方没搞清,被耍了。
