- Inter Partes Review 101

- Strategic considerations in deciding to file an IPR
The America Invents Act (AIA) provides for new inter partes disputes that are to be conducted by the Patent Trial and Appeal Board (PTAB), including inter partes review (IPR), post-grant review, the transitional post-grant review of covered business method patents, and derivations. A panel experienced in litigation and Patent Office proceedings will provide insight on practicing before the Patent Trial and Appeal Board (PTAB), with a focus on Inter Partes Review, a new trial proceeding conducted at the Board to review the patentability of one or more
claims in a patent only on a ground that could be raised under §§ 102 or 103, and only on the basis of prior art consisting of patents or printed publications.
