Choosing and Challenging Venue—District Court and ITC
Webinar Series: Practical Advice on U.S. Patent Law Issues
May 9, 2018
Webinar
Finnegan’s 2018 webinar series addresses challenges across the IP landscape in the United States. The series starts with one of the fundamentals—proving or disproving obviousness. The panelists will address what works and what doesn’t before U.S. Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) examiners, before the Patent Trial and Appeal Board (PTAB), and before the courts. Next, the series explores the state of venue at U.S. courts and the International Trade Commission, now that some time has elapsed since the Supreme Court’s landmark TC Heartland decision. The series then moves back to the USPTO, providing an in-depth look at the nuts and bolts of efficient and effective practice before that agency. We will then explore the evolution of the law on patent eligibility under section 101, including practical advice for overcoming USPTO rejections and asserting and defending against section 101 arguments in the courts. The series will wrap up providing an update on the PTAB, including insight and analysis six years after its creation.
Finnegan’s 2018 webinar series focuses on practical and strategic advice for Asian companies and practitioners on U.S. patent litigation and prosecution topics. Registration for all webinars is free of charge.

May 9, 2018 | Choosing and Challenging Venue: District Court and ITC
It has been almost a year since the U.S. Supreme Court’s decision in TC Heartland LLC v. Kraft Food Group Brands LLC made a sweeping change in patent venue law. In this discussion, we examine the Supreme Court’s rationale in reaching the decision, the issues the decision raised, and how the lower courts, practitioners, and clients have grappled with these issues. We also examine the practical effects of the TC Heartland decision on venue selection in district courts and the International Trade Commission (ITC). Finally, we will discuss questions that are arguably left undecided by the Supreme Court and the implications of those questions.
