Foley Partner Jon Dudas, former Under Secretary of Commerce for Intellectual Property and Director of the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO), will be presenting on “Appealing Beyond the Supreme Court: Patent Reform Legislation” as part of the BrightTALK’s Web conference program on October 8, 2009.
With litigation costs and awards significantly increasing, many are seeking answers outside of the courtroom. Controversial legislation to revamp the law of damages, challenges to patents outside the court, venue and more is held up again in Congress. If passed, the legislation could mean dramatic changes to your business model and patent strategies.
