- W1490610990 abstract "Good afternoon. Let me begin by thanking the Chicago-Kent Law School for the opportunity to share some unconventional thoughts with you about the way in which we have been handling patent appeals for more than 30 years. Whether you think that is a long time or a short time probably depends on how old you are: most of the people who are still in law school were not even born when Congress decided to assign all true patent appeals to the Federal Circuit, and so they will naturally think that we’ve had this system forever; old-timers like me can remember the previous regime, when the regional circuits handled patent appeals just as they do all other appeals (indeed, when I was a law clerk on the Fifth Circuit, my last assignment was a case concerning plant patents!). But either way, we should all be able to agree that there is nothing inevitable about the current system. And so, I’d like to spend my time this afternoon exploring the question whether it is time to abolish the Federal Circuit’s exclusive jurisdiction over patent appeals. For those of you simply interested in the bottom-line, I will spare you the suspense: I believe the answer is “Yes.” I hope that this does not cause you to think that my topic is so fanciful that you would be better off spending the next twenty minutes or so texting or checking your emails. In fact, as I propose to show you, there are better ways to solve the problems that this branch of the Federal Circuit’s exclusive jurisdiction was designed to address, and, at a broader level, our understanding of intellectual property (IP) itself has shifted and deepened since 1982 in a way that pushes us back toward the unification of judicial responsibility for the field as a whole. As I have already mentioned, the Federal Circuit came into existence in 1982, with the passage of the Federal Courts Improvement Act. That Act gave the new court exclusive jurisdiction over three types of appeals in patent cases: (1) appeals from district courts in cases “arising under” the patent laws or in which a party has asserted a compulsory counterclaim arising under the patent laws; (2) appeals from decisions of the Patent and Trademark Office’s Board of Patent Appeals and Interferences; and (3) appeals from investigations of the International Trade Commission into the importation of goods that allegedly infringe a U.S. patent. This work comprises the largest part of the court’s present docket. Yet the Federal Circuit is not a “specialized” court in the same sense as is the Complex Commercial Litigation Division of the Delaware" @default.
