As novas regras da PTAB: como vencer no campo de batalha ampliado pré-institucional
Beginning on or about May 1, 2016, patent owners will be permitted on the front end (pre-institution) to file a preliminary response introducing newly created expert declarations or evidence to rebut a petitioner’s case — an opportunity that will affect counsel, patent owners, and petitioners alike.
Join Foley Partners Stephen B. Maebius and Linda E.B. Hansen as they discuss how these important changes — and the one surprise among the new rules — will impact the current state of post-grant proceedings. Plus, get practical tips for preparing for a proceeding, filing a quality preliminary response, and preventing institution.
There is no cost to participate in this program, but pre-registration is required. To participate, please use the Register Now button above or simply register here. Instructions for accessing the program will be included in the registration confirmation email.
