Law360 Reports on Petition for Rehearing/Rehearing En Banc Filed by Amster, Rothstein & Ebenstein LLP in Island IP v. TD Ameritrade

Law 360 reported on Combined Petition for Rehearing and Rehearing En Banc filed by Partner Charles R. Macedo from Amster, Rothstein & Ebenstein LLP and John Dellaportas from Emmet Marvin & Martin LLP on behalf of Island Intellectual Property LLC at the Federal Circuit. The Petition addresses important issues of when the Court needs to provide a reasoned decision on a motion for summary judgment and appellate review.

Law360 cites Mr. Macedo as follows:

"There was a mountain of evidence and a clear explanation in the briefs," Island lawyer Charles Macedo of Amster Rothstein & Ebenstein LLP told Law360 Thursday.

"You don’t need to agree with us, it doesn’t mean that the factfinder in the end would agree, but at a minimum you have to address it. Unfortunately, neither the district court nor the panel addressed [Alice’s] ‘Step 2,’ let alone the evidence," said Macedo.
