when is material protected from discovery by work product protection
Work-product doctrine In American civil procedure, the work-product doctrine protects materials prepared in anticipation of litigation from discovery by opposing counsel.[1] It is also known as the work-product rule, the work-product immunity, and the work-product exception. It is sometimes mistakenly called the work-product privilege.This doctrine does not apply in other countries, where such communications are not protected, but where the legal discovery process itself is much more limited.[2]
Geographical Indications of Goods (Registration and Protection) Act, 1999 The Geographical Indications of Goods (Registration and Protection) Act, 1999 (GI Act) is a sui generis Act of the Parliament of India for protection of geographical indications in India. India, as a member of the World Trade Organization (WTO), enacted the Act to comply with the Agreement on Trade-Related Aspects of Intellectual Property Rights.[1] The GI tag ensures that none other than those registered as authorised users (or at least those residing inside the geographic territory) are allowed to use the popular product name. Darjeeling tea became the first GI tagged product in India, in 2004â€“05, since then 323 goods had been added to the list as of August 2018.
