Abstract:
A three-way train wreck has hit the patent system. Tort reform perception impacts
the patent system through both the courts and the legislature, and stealth patent
reform is here now due to new Patent Office Rules and Regulations. This presentation
will provide an overview of recent cases as they affect patentability, legislative
efforts and new rules
