Restriction fragment length polymorphism analysis of forensic science casework in the People's Republic of China.

Restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) analysis for the purpose of individualization is now being used in casework in the People's Republic of China. This report describes the use of the multilocus minisatellite probe 33.15 to solve three cases, including two homicides and a rape. In the third case, fetal tissue was analyzed to prove that the alleged rapist was, in fact, the father. In each case, analysis of deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) resulted in a positive match. The probability of chance association of the DNA fingerprint was calculated as 5.6 x 10(-12), which is similar to the figures reported in the literature.

The individuality of fibres used to provide forensic evidence--not all blue polyesters are the same.

Fibres used in forensic casework suffer from a disadvantage common to other forms of trace evidence--it is not possible to state with absolute certainty that they originate from a specific source. Target fibre studies, population studies and research on 'blocks of colour' have effectively demonstrated the polymorphism of textile fibres (particularly man-made ones) and have shown that when a fibre is believed to have a specific putative source, the chance that it has originated from a different source purely by coincidence is extremely remote. A study by Houck MM (Houck MM, Inter-comparison of unrelated fibre evidence. Forensic Science International 2003; 135: 146-149) has shown that no coincidental matching fibres were recovered from items of clothing examined in 20 unrelated crimes. The study involved over two million comparisons. This work goes a step further, and using the example of blue polyester fibres shows that even within a very narrow segment of the whole general fibre population, many examples of a specific colour/type of man-made fibre taken from random sources can be compared and the chance of any two being the same is very low. These studies should help to show the specificity and value of transferred fibres in providing forensic evidence.     

寻衅滋事罪几个问题探究

寻衅滋事罪与其他有关联犯罪所不同的一个显著特征是基于流氓动机而产生的主观随意性、任意性和肆意性 ,其本质是无事生非。在司法实践中 ,认定“事”的有无要考虑被害人的过错情况以及社会观念。行为人实施了本罪四种行为中的三种或两种 ,但每种行为又未达到情节严重的条件 ,是否构成本罪要遵循罪刑法定原则。本罪与故意伤害罪、故意杀人罪在故意的内容上具有复合性和竞合性 ,视情形不同 ,或是无论本罪转化为后两罪 ,还是本罪与后两罪系竞合关系 ,最终以后两罪论处。     

专利实用性要件的国际协调研究

专利实用性要件是当前《实质性专利法条约》签订中的争论焦点之一。在此问题上,欧洲、美国等分别坚持自己的Industrial Applicability(工业应用性)标准与Utility(实用性)标准,二者存在竞合,更有实质的差异与分歧,各自的演变及二者的协调反映了专利制度作为商业竞争手段的工具性的一面,也体现了实用性要件作为专利权人、产业集团与社会公众利益平衡的调节因素的一面。最后的协调结果可能会是欧、美工业应用性/实用性标准的某种妥协与折中。我国对该问题应加紧研究、积极参与,在专利制度国际化协调进程中寻求对我国最为有利的结果。

The Trilateral cooperation

Legal context: The relatively informal agreements setting up the TrilateralCooperation (TC) among the world's three most important patentoffices are contrasted with formal multinational treaties suchas the Patent Law Treaty and the abortive Substantive PatentLaw Treaty. Key points: After its inception in 1983, the TC concentrated initially ondeveloping and implementing standards for electronic storageand retrieval of prior art documents, and facilitation of searching.This was later extended to electronic sharing of priority documentsand to standardization and searching of DNA sequence databases.More recently emphasis has been placed on harmonization of searchingand examination procedures, and working groups have comparedthe approaches of the Trilateral Offices (TOs) to the patentabilityof claims in areas of new technology. Encouragingly, the resultsare usually the same, although the specific objections raisedmay differ. The ultimate goal is to reach a situation in whicha claim allowed by one TO would be accepted by the others withoutfurther examination. Practical significance: The TC has already facilitated search and examination, leadingto lower costs and shorter pendency times than would otherwisebe the case. Further progress depends on harmonization of substantivepatent law, which in turn depends on the willingness of theUSA to accept a first-to-file system.     

东盟系列峰会凸显各方战略盘算

1月13-15日，东盟系列峰会（第十二届东盟峰会、第十届10＋3峰会、第七次中日韩峰会及第二届东亚峰会）在菲律宾宿务召开。在会上，相关国家竞想抛售其东亚合作战略，既主张强化经济和非传统安全联系，更注重提升自身的实力和地位，峰会呈现出大国在东亚地区既合作又竞争的新态势，进一步折射出区内外大国竞相角逐东亚舞台的战略盘算。
