Strafford will be offering a webinar entitled "Contested Proceedings Before the New Patent Trial and Appeal Board" on April 3, 2012 from 1:00 - 2:30 pm (EDT). Scott A. McKeown and Greg H. Cardella of Oblon Spivak McClelland Maier & Neustadt will examine the new Patent Trial and Appeal Board (PTAB) and procedures for contested proceedings, and offer guidance for PTO trial and appellate practice. The webinar will review the following questions:
• What changes does the PTAB bring?
• How does the PTAB differ from the Board of Patent Appeals and Interferences (BPAI)?
• What impact will the new PTAB have on ongoing reexaminations?
• What factors should counsel consider when deciding whether to file in the district court or the PTAB?
An interactive Q&A session will follow the presentation.
