2016 IP Academy Series: Duty of Disclosure

In October 2015, the US Patent and Trademark Office issued a notice of proposed rulemaking to change the requirements for filing Information Disclosure Statement submissions (IDS) under the duty of disclosure. We will review the current and proposed practices under the duty of disclosure.

Join us for a discussion about the duty of disclosure when prosecuting a US application.

Topics will include:

• Review of duty of disclosure and IDS
• Recent cases and newly proposed rules regarding IDS
• Best practices under duty of disclosure

For more information, please contact Shonna Holmes at shonna.holmes@morganlewis.com or at +1.202.739.5739.

Light snacks and refreshments will be provided after the discussion.
