Would you like to learn more about your options after a final rejection? Then join us for the next Patent Trial and Appeal Board (PTAB) Boardside Chat webinar. This webinar is free and open to the public.
Vice Chief Judge Michael Kim and Judge Michael Cygan will provide information that will help applicants decide whether to file a Request for Continued Examination (RCE) or file an appeal to the PTAB.
Lead Judge James Worth and Acting Deputy Director of the Office of Petitions Kristen Matter will discuss the difference between matters appealable to the PTAB and matters that need to be petitioned to the Director.
A question and answer session will follow the presentation. Please send questions in advance or during the webinar to PTABBoardsideChat@uspto.gov.
