- Exploring the difficulty of presenting evidence of “negative acts”
- Considering which party bears the burden of proving the effect of the putative blocking patent
- Determining how much proof is required to overcome the “solid premise of diminished incentive” when a blocking patent is invoked?
- Analyzing how the Acorda decision effects the obviousness analysis
