Kenneth Weatherwax Quoted in IPWatchdog Article Regarding Supreme Court’s Return Mail Decision

Kenneth Weatherwax, co-managing partner at Lowenstein & Weatherwax LLP, was quoted in an article published in an article published by IPWatchdog on June 11, 2019 regarding the Supreme Court’s decision in Return Mail v. United States, which held by a vote of 6 to 3 that the United States government may not bring post-grant adjudicatory patent challenges under the America Invents Act of 2011.  In his comments, Mr. Weatherwax notes that the decision definitively resolves just one of numerous questions concerning such proceedings that have lingered since they were created in 2012—and answers it differently than the Patent Office had answered it until now.  The article may be accessed at this link.
