: Patently ObviousPatent Reform Moving Forward
By Dennis Crouch, Esq.
Senator Patrick Leahy (D-VT) announced this morning that a "tentative agreement" has been reached on the patent reform bill with Senator Jeff Sessions (R-AL). "No one will think this is a perfect bill, but we are close to a comprehensive patent reform bill that benefits all corners of the patent community." Leahy did not provide any further details except that the compromise will "address" the issues of "runaway damage awards" and patent quality.
The reform bill has already been passed by the House.
