专利数据巨头RPX公司最新报告显示,过去三个季度的当事人间复审(IPR)申请量显著增长,表明过去一年诉讼案件激增。 潜在驱动因素之一?RPX数据显示,仅2024年第一季度,非实施实体(NPE)发起的诉讼就增长了24%。正如富乐律师事务所近期发布的《专利审判与上诉委员会年度回顾》所指出的,2024年专利审判与上诉委员会(PTAB)将迎来诸多重大变革,而IPR申请量的激增将成为推动变革的又一催化剂。
专利审判与上诉委员会(PTAB)在2024年第一季度共收到328份《美国发明法案》(AIA)复审请愿书,其中包括322份当事人间复审(IPR)请愿书和6份授权后复审(PGR)请愿书。 与2023年第一季度的345件申请相比,本季度申请量下降5%;但较第四季度的278件申请则增长18%。
