Plastics Industry Assoc. v. Bonta , 2024 WL 4699927 (D.D.C. Nov. 6, 2024), held in part that the defendant’s act of serving a “preservation demand” on the plaintiff in the forum district did not confer long-arm jurisdiction over the serving-defendant in that forum. “Preservation notices” are routinely sent to a potential opposing party in order to trigger the common-law duty to preserve potentially responsive information by putting the recipient on notice that litigation should be anticipated.

A brief filed with the U.S. Supreme Court yesterday urged the Justices to deny a petition to the Court contending the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit (CAFC) has made a habit of making factual findings of its own rather than merely discussing and analyzing the district court’s findings, as it is required. The petition was filed on September 11, 2024, by Salix Pharmaceuticals and stems from an April 2024 precedential decision of the Federal Circuit affirming a district court’s final

Patent due diligence processes take too long. The information you need is publicly available but accessing it is often tedious & inefficient, requiring you to wade through dozens of PTO websites or for-free tools to gather what you need. Plus, it frequently occurs late in the game, leaving professionals under pressure, sifting through chaotic 100-page PDFs, and frustrated with poorly formatted information & patent numbers.

Combine that with a high-stress environment and a pressing workload, and it’s no surprise that lawyers find it challenging to focus.
