Book excerpt: Several recent judicial opinions suggest that patent law's inequitable conduct doctrine is broken. These opinions indicate that - despite its admirable objective of encouraging disclosure of important information to the Patent Office - the inequitable conduct defense is being over-used by alleged infringers in patent litigation to the detriment of the public. This over-use creates problems. First, it encourages over-disclosure of information to the Patent Office. In extreme cases, over-disclosure makes it difficult for patent examiners to identify information critical to deciding whether to issue patents, potentially resulting in the issuance of invalid patents. Second, over-use of the inequitable conduct defense unnecessarily increases costs associated with enforcement of patents. Costs to inventors, to the court system, and ultimately to the public itself all increase dramatically with each allegation of inequitable conduct. These problems with the inequitable conduct doctrine threaten the very purpose articulated in the patent clause in the Constitution - the promotion of the progress of science and useful arts. This article analyzes the inequitable conduct doctrine and proposes a reform that would alleviate its present problems. “Patent fraud” should replace the current doctrine of inequitable conduct.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In an increasingly harmonized global patent landscape, few issues still distinguish the US patent system as much as its strictand often criticizedduty of candor and its inequitable conduct doctrine. The EPO and most other countries around the world impose less burdensome disclosure duties upon patent applicants. What is there to learn from the experience in the US? Have these tools resulted in any benefit worth considering? Yet regardless of the disclosure duties imposed upon patent applicants, a deceptive conduct before the Patent Office could lead to unwarranted exclusive rights and have a negative impact on competition. Should antitrust law intervene? Is it a case of sham litigation? This work attempts to answer those questions through a comparative analysis, examining the law and case law in the US and in the EU from both a patent and a competition law perspective and seeking a workable theory of harm.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is designed to serve as the first comprehensive review of conduct defenses and counterclaims, with a focus on existing case law and litigation strategies. The first section of the book addresses claims involving misuse of the patenting process, with a focus on patents on a product or process the patentee did not invent as claimed and inequitable conduct claims, including intentional failure to cite material references and false or misleading declarations. From here the book turns to claims based on the misuse of the litigation process, including baseless and bad-purpose suits. The third and final section of the book describes claims based on the misuse of the competitive (antitrust) and licensing processes. Each section of the book is divided into sections devoted to law and strategy, with practical guidance related to handling document demands and other discovery requests, expert testimony and waiver issues. This book is designed to provide patent litigators with a double arsenal of unprecedented case-law analysis and litigation strategy related to the "wild cards" of infringement cases: affirmative defenses and counterclaims based on assertions of patent-holder misconduct. Such claims can include: BL inequitable conduct, including intentional failure to cite material references and false or misleading declarations BL misuse of the litigation process, including baseless and bad-purpose suits BL claims that an opposing party knew or should have known that the patent was invalid or not infringed BL antitrust law violations BL tortuous interference BL defamation BL RICO allegations In addition, each chapter of the book has a section devoted to litigation strategy related to a particular claim, with practical guidance on a range of issues including: BL document demands and party depositions used to show that putative inventor had access to another's similar invention BL deposition tactics to establish what the inventor or patent holder knew and when they knew it, along with indications of intent. BL the use of expert testimony to establish materiality or intent BL summary judgment and motion practice BL the use of expert testimony to prove claims of market definition and market power BL third-party discovery to prove what persons skilled in the art understood or how the market functions BL waiver of privilege issues BL the use of discovery to establish the existence of past licenses and negotiations BL post-verdict Rule 11 claims or recovery under 35 USC § 285

Download or read book Inequitable Conduct in Retrospective written by T. Leigh Anenson and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This article critiques the Federal Circuit's en banc decision in Therasense, Inc. v. Becton, Dickinson & Co. on the issue of inequitable conduct in light of its origins in equity and unclean hands. It finds that the Therasense majority renounced the doctrine's heritage and reinvented the defense purely on policy grounds. Although the majority still called cheating in obtaining a patent monopoly inequitable conduct, there is little equity left. By revisiting the equitable doctrine of unclean hands, this Article provides critical guidance in the future adjudication of inequitable conduct. It evaluates what the defense could--and should--mean within the context of equity principles and patent remedy policies. In particular, we criticize the Therasense majority for deviating from the tradition of equity by, among other things, relying on common law as opposed to equitable (constructive) fraud. The court justified its restriction of inequitable conduct because it claimed that the defense's equitable nature had caused controversy. Yet we discover that the court of appeals had departed from historic equitable principles and constraints before that decision. In fact, the Federal Circuit would have likely never been in its current predicament with the defense had it followed the tradition of equity. We show that the court had long ago uprooted the defense from its equitable foundation. This occurred in various ways, from adding unnecessary complexity to the inequitable conduct inquiry by multiplying its tests and failing for a time to use an abuse of discretion standard and other inconsistencies with appellate review, to expanding the defense beyond its frontiers to bar all cases and patent claims. We also advise that the unclean hands defense traditionally applies only to equitable relief. While the literature on inequitable conduct is extensive, no one has examined inequitable conduct from its equitable tradition. Therefore, this article fills an essential gap in the scholarship on an issue of systemic importance.

Download or read book Intellectual Property Misuse written by and published by American Bar Association. This book was released on 2000 with total page 262 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Misuse is an increasingly important topic because of the central role intellectual property plays in our economy. The consequences of a misuse finding are severe: unenforceability of the patent or copyright involved, and defense to a suit to recover royalties in a license. The defense continues to arise in patent cases, has led to the dismissal of several recent copyright cases, and is now being asserted in trademark cases. The misuse defense thus represents a nexus of intellectual property and antitrust law and has the potential to affect business practices involving computer copyrights and other areas highly relevant in today's economic environment. This timely handbook covers the origin and development of the misuse doctrine, the debate about its scope and existence in relation to antitrust law, and its present status in patent, copyright, and trademark law. It also gives practical insights into how the doctrine affects both licensing and litigation practice.
