Maryland Judges To Discuss "Trial of a Patent Case"

By Brian Wm. Higgin

     If you are interested in learning the nuts-and-bolts of trying a patent case, join Maryland U.S. District Court Judges Marvin J. Garbis and André M. Davis, other judges, and a large faculty of litigators, in Scottsdale, AZ, on February 28-29, 2008, for Trial of a Patent Case. The live course, which will also be webcasted, is part of the 15th Annual Advanced ALI-ABA Course of Study for the Corporate Counsel and the Private Practitioner. Judges Garbis and Davis presided over a combined four patent lawsuits filed in the U.S. District Court for the District of Maryland in 2007. They also have a perspective on Maryland's comprehensive e-discovery protocol, which other jurisdictions have adopted. George F. Pappas, who is representing Microsoft in the Technology Patents lawsuit pending in the U.S. District Court for the District Maryland, will co-chair the program with Judge Garbis.
