AIPLA Patent Year-in-Review

By Jason Rantanen

I’m very much looking forward to giving the Patent Year-in-Review talk at the AIPLA annual meeting tomorrow.  If you’re at the AIPLA conference, I’d love to chat with you tonight at dinner or Saturday morning.  Look for the somewhat geeky guy with glasses.  😉

In connection with that talk, AIPLA asked me to put together an essay as well.  I posted a copy of that original essay a month ago; surprisingly, there have been developments in patent law since then! So if you’re looking for the updated version, which includes the Federal Circuit’s en banc opinion in SCA Hygiene and the Supreme Court’s grant of certiorari in Halo and Stryker earlier this week, it’s here: http://papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.cfm?abstract_id=2658737

      A 2014 Judicial Conduct Board review of the emails found them to be suggestive but not worthy of disciplinary action.

      It’d be funny if it weren’t so sad and predictable. Heckuva job, Pennsylvania. Let’s see if they manage to clean up that mess.

    The Year-In-Review segment has traditionally been one of the best and most enjoyable sessions at all of AIPLA. So… no pressure or anything. 🙂 Good luck!

      David, can you give us a list of professors who have conducted the Saturday morning session. Back in the ’90s, it was Chisum. But I have not been attending regularly in recent years.
