Avoiding and Utilizing Prosecution History Traps: Litigation, Prosecution, and Due Diligence

As part of the Intellectual Property Owners Association’s webinar series, Finnegan partner Bryan Diner will join a panel discussion considering the nature of legal traps that can lurk in prosecution history, caused both by disclaimers and amendments, and how they can snare defendants or plaintiffs in infringement litigation. The program will consider best practices for patent prosecutors on how to try to avoid leaving damaging history and for transactional lawyers on how to spot problems during due diligence.
