The
Intellectual Property Owners Association (IPO) will offer a one-hour webinar entitled
"Reverse
Payments: Impact of U.S. Supreme Court on Hatch-Waxman Litigation"
on June 20, 2013 beginning at 4:30 pm (ET).
A panel consisting of Jeffery
Cross of Freeborn & Peters; Albert Foer, president and founder of the
American Antitrust Institute; and Lawrence Rosenberg of Jones Day will consider
such questions as:
• How
will the "rule of reason" structure evolve in these cases?
• What
are the new rules for counseling generic companies considering launching a
challenge?
• Will
the number of patent challenges by generic companies decline?
• How
will plaintiffs in antitrust cases meet post-Twombley pleading standards?
• What
will be the role of the merit of the patent?
• Is
Chief Justice Roberts' correct in his dissent that the "court's attempt to
limit its holding to the context of patent settlements under Hatch-Waxman will
not long hold"?
The registration fee for the webinar is $120 (government and academic rates are available upon request). Those interested in registering for the webinar can do so here.
