Critical Insights into the PERA and PREVAIL Acts

About the Course:

The PERA and PREVAIL Acts are of noble lineage. They both seek to remedy faults of the American patent system. PERA strives to clarify patent eligibility issues. PREVAIL was designed to deliver some semblance of equity to decisions hailing from the Patent Trial and Appeals Board by tackling serial attacks (among other remedies).

What are the odds of these proposed pieces of legislation being promulgated? Will these bills be sufficient to correct the somewhat dismantled patent system?

Perhaps more effective legislation is on the horizon. Representative Thomas Massie’s Restoring America’s Leadership in Innovation Act (RALIA) seems quite promising in that the America Invents Act would be unwound and injunctive relief would be restored.

Listen to one of the country’s most influential authorities on America’s patent system discuss his ideas for restoring real patent rights to inventors.
