PTAB Strategies and Insights – April 2020

The PTAB Strategies and Insights newsletter provides timely updates and insights into how best to handle proceedings at the USPTO. It is designed to increase return on investment for all stakeholders looking at the entire patent life cycle in a global portfolio.

This month you will find three articles covering:

• The Federal Circuit clarifies the notice requirements of the Administrative Procedure Act for motions to amend.
• The Federal Circuit’s COVID-19 response suggests a new approach to oral argument, especially in PTAB cases.
• What evidence can demonstrate that a printed publication was publicly accessible?
• A review of our most recent client alerts

We welcome feedback and suggestions about this newsletter to ensure we are meeting the needs and expectations of our readers. So if you have topics you wish to see explored within an issue of the newsletter, please reach out to me.
