DOUGLAS R. NEMEC: Good morning, everybody. It's time now for what I consider to be one of the critical components of this program. Patent Law Institute was debuted in 2007 at a time when the Supreme Court was absolutely on fire with patent issues. We had the Merck versus Integra case coming out a couple years earlier. EBay, MedImmune versus Genentech, Microsoft. Really an unprecedented frequency of patent cases coming out of the Supreme Court at that ...

EUGENE T. PEREZ: Good morning, everyone. Just apologies ahead of time. I'm just getting over a cold, so my voice is not 100%, but no big deal, I think. Some of you actually look familiar, I think from last year. Before, we used to have, maybe, 30 some slides. And I know this first hour, there's a lot more slides this year. Well, really it's because we have this new law. And there's a lot more post-grant procedures available. The idea of this first ...

LAWRENCE ROSEN: Well, let me introduce two people that told me, after I invited them, that they really don't know that much about open source. But they do know a lot about open standards. And one of the things that I was particularly anxious to get a presentation on this year is about the relationship between the standards organizations that mostly worry about patents, although they ought to think about copyrights as well, and open source, and the ...

JOHN M. WHITE: With that, let me introduce our next speaker, Philippe Signore. He is a partner at Oblon. And he's been telling us about patent reform for several years now. At least one, maybe two. And each time, he tells us his view of the handicap, whether it will occur or not. And so I'm interested to hear from him again on that front. He has a law degree from Georgetown and a physics degree from University of Florida. So he has a PhD in physics. ...

GARY M. HNATH: Good afternoon, everybody. My name is Gary Hnath, and it's my great pleasure to talk to you about Section 337 cases at the ITC. How many of you have are familiar with the use of the ITC as a place to enforce patents? A few people. If I asked that question three or four years ago, people would put probably maybe one or two hands in the audience. But it is becoming increasingly important. Just yesterday, around 4 o'clock morning, we ...

GARY M. HNATH: So how many people have heard of litigating Section 337 cases of the ITC. Just a show of hands. That's more than half, that's almost everybody. That's very impressive. If I'd asked that question five years ago, I probably would have gotten maybe one or two people in the audience, so a lot more people know about Section 337. I don't know your depth of knowledge, but my goal is at the end of the hour to tell you enough about Section 337, ...

SPEAKER 1: Welcome back. Welcome back. Before I introduce our next topic, I want to respond to two questions, one that was asked in the room, and one online. The question asked in the room was whether an exclusive licensee needs to join the owner of the patent in a lawsuit. And we fumbled around a little bit with the answer, and the reason we fumbled around is the answer is unclear. If the exclusive licensee has all substantial rights in the patent, ...
