The Practising Law Institute’s (PLI) Patent Litigation 2007 seminar will take place October 22-23, 2007 at the PLI New York Center. With the cost of patent lawsuits on the rise, now, more than ever, technology-driven businesses are threatened by costly patent litigation. Damage awards, attorney fees and associated costs can easily run into millions of dollars, potentially closing business operations overnight.
Foley Senior Counsel C. Edward Polk Jr. will be presenting on October 22 on “Enablement & Written Description & Obviousness.” In this session, the Supreme Court’s decision in KSR v. Teleflex will be analyzed. Additionally, these questions will be addressed:
- Is written description creating a new “missing essential element” defense?
- What does it take to succeed with an enablement defense?
- Are the enablement tests harder for biochemical cases than other chemical case?
