What is the USPTO Doing Now?
This week our conversation is with Scott McKeown, a shareholder with Wolf Greenfield in the firm's DC office, and Steve McBride, a partner with Carmichael IP. In this wide ranging conversation we tackle what is happening at the United States Patent and Trademark Office and on Capitol Hill. We specifically address the proposed changes to terminal disclaimers and double patenting, and also the pending bills in Congress relating to patent eligibility and the Patent Trial and Appeal Board (PTAB).
