Join BCLT as Matthew Avery (Partner, Baker Botts) moderates a discussion with Megan White (Partner, Baker Botts), Keith Jurek (Sr. Patent Counsel, GRAIL, Inc.), and Daisy Yau (Sr. Patent Counsel, Oracle). Together, they will explore findings from a recent comprehensive study that examined correlations between the thoroughness of examination by the USPTO and subsequent patent litigation outcomes. Analyzing over 89,000 patents litigated since March 2000, the study assessed how the number of rejections a patent receives affects its likelihood of invalidity, infringement, and unenforceability in court. The surprising results from this research may offer strategies for patent owners to refine their prosecution and litigation practices.
