FCBA Webcast on Appealing Octane and Highmark Decisions

The Patent Litigation Committee of the Federal Circuit Bar Association (FCBA) will be holding a panel discussion webinar entitled "Have The Supreme Court's Octane and Highmark Decisions Obviated The Need For Legislative Changes to Section 285?" on January 15, 2015 from noon to 1:00 pm (ET).  Eric C. Cohen of Katten Muchin Rosenman LLP will moderate a panel consisting of Patrick J. Coyne and Erik R. Pukny of Finnegan, Henderson, Farabow, Garrett & Dunner, LLP and John R. Kenny of Kenyon & Kenyon.  The panel will explore whether Octane obviates the need for fee-shifting patent reform legislation.  Those wishing to participate online can do so by visiting the FBCA's registration website.  Information about registering for this event can be found here.  The registration fee for the webcast is $120 (non-member private practitioners), $35 (non-member government/academic/retired), or complimentary for FCBA members and students.
