The issue of Article III standing is increasingly being raised in appeals from USPTO decisions.
Among recent developments, the Supreme Court has requested the views of the Solicitor General in deciding whether to grant certiorari in RPX Corp. v. Chanbond LLC on the question of whether a petitioner suffers injury-in-fact sufficient to establish Article III standing to appeal an adverse final written decision of the Patent Trial and Appeal Board based solely on the statutory provisions of the AIA governing inter partes review, regardless of whether the petitioner/ appellant is engaged in activity potentially giving rise to an infringement suit.
Please join us for an overview of recent trends in the caselaw and practical guidance on evaluating whether Article III standing requirements are met in an appeal to the Federal Circuit from the USPTO in a variety of scenarios, including:
- Appeals from IPR/PGR and derivation proceedings
- Appeals from Ex Parte cases
- Intervention
