West LEGALworks® will be offering a webcast entitled:  "KSR International Co. v. Teleflex, Inc.: Where Do We Stand Five Months Out?" on September 20, 2007 from 1:00-3:00 PM (EST).  Speakers Thomas C. Goldstein and Jeffrey K. Sherwood of Akin Gump Strauss Hauer & Feld LLP and Robert Greene Sterne and Kenneth C. Bass, III of Sterne, Kessler, Goldstein & Fox PLLC will discuss where the patent community stands five months after the Supreme Court's decision in KSR International Co. v. Teleflex, Inc.  In particular, the speakers will provide an overview and analysis of the "obviousness doctrine" in the wake of KSR, discuss recent actions by the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office's Board of Patent Appeals and Interferences (BPAI) and the Central Reexamination Unit, examine the recent "post-KSR" rulings issued by the Federal Circuit and U.S. District Courts, explore the current landscape for practitioners focusing on preparing and prosecuting patents, and discuss how "obviousness" is coming into play in the litigation arena.
