DoD Tightens Counterfeit Prevention Policy
Client Alert | less than 1 min read | 05.02.13
On April 26, 2013, DoD issued an Instruction to establish policies to prevent the introduction of counterfeit material at any level of the DoD supply chain and to seek restitution for critical failures and damages caused by such material. DoD component heads are tasked with integrating the policy into contract requirements and procedures, procuring critical material only from suppliers that meet appropriate counterfeit avoidance criteria or applying additional risk management measures when such suppliers are not available, using sampling techniques and material testing for detection, and reporting all suspected or confirmed occurrences.

Important EU Court Judgment Clarifies Rules on Interest Due in Cartel Damages Cases
In a judgment that will have direct and immediate consequences, the Court of Justice of the European Union (CJEU) has clarified that for all competition damages actions brought after 26 December 2014, interest runs from the date on which the harm occurred. The ruling addressed two important questions: (1) whether national provisions implementing Article 3(2) of the EU Damages Directive — which requires interest to run from the date harm occurred —apply to cases in which the harm preceded the adoption of those provisions; and (2) how the date of harm should be determined in cartel cases involving the purchase of goods at inflated prices.
