The American Intellectual Property Law Association (AIPLA) will be offering a webinar entitled "Arrival of a New Privilege and a Review of Potential Waivers of Privilege in Business Contexts" on June 29, 2016 from 12:30 - 2:00 pm (Eastern). John A. Bauer of Mintz Levin Cohn Ferris Glovsky and Popeo, PC, and Henrik D. Parker of BakerHostetler will highlight two key areas:
1. Potential waiver pitfalls in business transactions. How much information is too much? Should a buyer/licensee/funder ask to review privileged documents related to the prosecution of the target's patents? Can the two sides to a deal share privileged information without the privilege being lost? Does the answer depend on whether or not a deal is consummated or what district is involved?
2. How the recent case of In Re: Queen’s University at Kingston, PARTEQ Research and Development Innovations has re-shaped the landscape of privilege when patent agents are involved.
