IP Watchdog reports on Amicus Brief in support of Island’s Petition for Rehearing/Rehearing En Banc in Island Intellectual Property LLC v. TD Ameritrade, Inc., urging the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit (CAFC) to reconsider its use of Rule 36 when affirming decisions.
As IP Watchdog reports, USI explained:
“Rule 36 as written permits affirmance in cases that should be reversed, negatively impacts development of both the public and the private patent law, and systematically biases cases toward affirmance through stymying ‘vote fluidity’ among Circuit Judges.” – USI amicus brief
