As part of the Strafford Publications’ virtual programming, Finnegan attorney James Masters will discuss the importance of recent decisions on the obviousness-type double patenting practice, and review the U.S. Patent Office’s findings and court treatment of In re Cellect (Fed. Cir. Aug. 28,2023). The panel will also discuss how a statutorily authorized extension, patent term adjustment interacts with ODP, defeating double patenting rejections, and avoiding terminal disclaimers.
