The Intellectual Property Owners Association (IPO) will offer a one-hour webinar entitled "After RPX: Privity, RPI, and Estoppel in AIA Post-Grant Proceedings" on August 23, 2018 from 2:00 to 3:00 pm (ET). Gregory Castanias of Jones Day, Craig Countryman of Fish & Richardson P.C., and Eldora Ellison of Sterne Kessler Goldsteing & Fox, PLLC will discuss how the decision in Applications in Internet Time (AIT) v. RPX is a significant addition to the Federal Circuit's oversight of the PTAB and what the resulting implications are for practitioners. The panel will also discuss the time bar under Section 315(b) and the ongoing impact of the en banc Federal Circuit decision in Wi-Fi One v. Broadcom Corporation. The panel will discuss the following topics:
• How patent owners can take advantage of RPX decision and what changes may it require in the business models of some frequent IPR petitioners;
• The options for patent owners who previously lost on privity issues at the PTAB or were denied discovery; and
• The widely reported expectation that Wi-Fi One will file a petition for certiorari with the U.S. Supreme Court -- as well as its efforts before the PTAB to raise the issue of a relationship alleged to be subject to the 315(b) time bar.
The registration fee for the webinar is $135 (government and academic rates are available upon request). Those interested in registering for the webinar can do so here.
