Knocking Out an IPR Institution Early

Troutman Pepper Podcasts

Please join Troutman Pepper’s Intellectual Property and Health Sciences Groups for the first installment of its podcast series on strategy, trends, and other happenings at the PTAB. Moderated by Troutman Pepper Partner Maia Harris, this episode features Troutman Pepper Partners Dustin Weeks and Andrew Zappia, who discuss IPR institution procedures and strategies, including the importance of defeating a petition early as a patent owner, as well as considerations regarding patent litigation strategies as a whole. During this podcast, our experts also delve into the substantive and technical arguments to consider as part of a patent owner’s petition and a respondent’s preliminary response. Be on the lookout for our next episode of this podcast series, where we will examine the use of supplemental examinations to dispose of validity and/or duty of candor concerns.
