The American Intellectual Property Law Association (AIPLA) will be offering a web-based program entitled "KSR and the Ripple Effect: Examining the Broad and Increasing Impact of KSR on Patent Litigation and Practice " on March 2, 2011 from 12:30 - 2:00 pm (Eastern). Jeffrey I. D. Lewis of Patterson Belknap Webb & Tyler LLP and Warren D. Woessner of Schwegman, Lundberg & Woessner will examine the broad and increasing impact of KSR on patent litigation and practice. The program will examine substantive obviousness issues since KSR and the continuing disputes in the lower courts, and will further examine the prohibition against the use of "hindsight bias" or ex parte reasoning in resolving the obviousness question, and provide best practices for responding to these arguments.
The registration fee for the program is $145 (AIPLA member rate) or $175 (non-member rate) (information regarding group fee options can be found here). Those interested in registering for the program, can do so here.
