Finnegan Ip Law Podcast Series

In January, the Federal Circuit upheld a District Court decision in Wyeth v. Kappos regarding the proper calculation of a patent term adjustment for issued patents. As a result, the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office has agreed to comply with the decision when calculating patent term adjustments for patents issued after March 2, 2010. Finnegan partner, Leslie McDonell, discusses the Wyeth v. Kappos case, the effect on patent term adjustments, and how this decision will change a company's patent filing strategy.
