New Post Grant Patent Practice Reference

Posted On: Mar. 15, 2013   By: Scott A. McKeown
bookComprehensive Coverage of Old & New Post Grant Practices

Several former USPTO administrative patent judges now in private practice, including my collegaue Lee Barret, have collaborated to publish the new book Post Grant Patent Practice (BNA). The book is very well done and comprehensively covers the broad range of topics that have defined post grant patent practice for decades, as well as those that are reshaping the future of this rapidly emerging practice specialty. From patent owner mechanisms such as patent reissue practice and certificates of correction to the new patentability trials of the AIA, derivation, supplemental examination, and more, the perspective  of these former insiders will serve as an invaluable reference.
