Interview with Lord Justice Arnold

Abstract

Lord Justice Arnold is renowned in the UK and the EU for his judicial contributions to the field of intellectual property (IP), and currently sits as a Justice of Appeal in the England and Wales Court of Appeal. As a judge, he has made 14 referrals to the Court of Justice of the European Union (CJEU) between 2004 and 20191. Our Chief-Editors had the pleasure of talking with him and getting his opinion on a broad range of topics, from recent case law developments, to the future of IP policies in the UK and in the EU, to website blocking and, finally, some valuable thoughts for IP students who wish to enter the field in the future.
