Join the next Boardside Chat webinar on Thursday, May 16, from noon to 1 p.m. ET, for an overview of two recently published notices of proposed rulemaking before the Patent Trial and Appeal Board (PTAB). The PTAB will discuss the proposed rules governing Director Review of PTAB decisions. The PTAB also will walk through the proposed rules related to briefing discretionary denial issues, § 325(d) considerations, instituting parallel and serial petitions, and termination due to settlement agreement.

The proposed rules are currently open for public comment, which are due in mid-June 2024.  For more information about the proposed rules, check out the Federal Register notices:
