Abstract
In response to the growing threat of intellectual property crime, on March 31, 2004, the Attorney General of the United States announced the creation of the Department of Justice’s Task Force on Intellectual Property. The Task Force formed five working groups, or subcommittees, to explore important areas of intellectual property. The working groups analyzed existing resources and proposed meaningful improvements in the following areas: (1) Criminal Enforcement, (2) International Cooperation, (3) Civil and Antitrust Enforcement, (4) Legislation, and (5) Prevention.
