IP Litigator Examines New USPTO Patent Eligibility Guidance
In articles published Jan. 4 by Bloomberg Law and Law360, IP litigation partner Scott McKeown (Washington, D.C.) examined new patent eligibility guidance released by the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office for patent examiners and administrative judges.
Mr. McKeown explains that the new guidance should make it easier for applicants to predict the outcome of the eligibility analysis at the USPTO and more predictable for those seeking patents on e-commerce, computer technology inventions and medical diagnostics.
