IPR Proceedings: Their Role in Patent Litigation, The Impact of Immaterially Different Unchallenged Claims, and The Return of Fintiv [Taft IP Webinar Series]

Join Taft Patent Litigators Shaun Gregory and Michael Kosma for a webinar focusing on Inter Partes Reviews (IPRs) before the USPTO’s Patent Trial and Appeal Board (PTAB). Shaun and Michael have prepared a program designed to provide a comprehensive overview of IPRs as well as the impact of recent changes in the law and administrative procedures. Whether you’re an inventor, in-house attorney, or industry professional, this session will equip you with essential knowledge and strategies for effectively navigating IPR proceedings.

In this webinar, our speakers will cover an introduction to IPRs and will provide attendees with an understanding of their function, authority, and impact on patent disputes. Presenters will also cover the extent of collateral estoppel on district court litigation from IPR decisions. The presenters will explore the impact of claim selection in the context of both district court complaint and IPR petition. Our presenters will also discuss the evolution of discretionary denials in view of the withdrawal of the Fintiv memo.

For those to stay ahead of the curve in patent litigation law, this webinar will provide valuable insights from seasoned professionals in the field on how to approach PTAB trials from both sides of the aisle, gain a deeper understanding of PTAB processes, and enhance your patent strategy!
