Please join the NYIPLA PTAB Committee on Tuesday, April 15, 2025 at 4:00 p.m. ET via zoom for its April 2025 PTAB Committee Meeting. At this meeting, we will be discussing “Revamped Director Review Under the New Administration”.
Since the new administration took office in January, we have seen a series of new changes in policies and procedures at the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office and throughout the Federal Government. In this session, we will focus on the new ranges of procedures involving Director Review, and the new procedure where the Acting Director will take over responsibility in the first instance for the briefing and determination of whether to deny review under discretionary factors.
Co-Chairs Charley Macedo and Ken Adamo will lead the discussion and review the Director Review decisions since the new administration took over, and the new changes in the policy and procedures as impacting the PTAB.
There will be a Q&A session afterward. This event is free to all NYIPLA members and PTAB Committee members. 1.0 NY/NJ CLE credit will be available for attendees.
Please remember to re-register for the NYIPLA and PTAB Committee if you have not yet done so in the new year to continue to participate at no additional cost in the PTAB Committee CLE program on the third Tuesday of every month, at 4:00 p.m. ET.
