The Trial Lawyer's Guide to Post Grant Patent Proceedings, 2024 Edition, is a guide to PTAB trial practice, all from a U.S. district court trial lawyer's perspective. Readers are guided step-by-step through the entire PTAB trial process, from preliminary considerations to initial filings, through trial, discovery, and the oral hearing, concluding with appeals to the Federal Circuit. An in-depth analysis of USPTO rules, regulations, and PTAB trial practice is provided, including discussion of hundreds of PTAB decisions and court decisions that affect PTAB trial practice.

Practitioners know all too well that PTAB trials often are intense and furious events, with scant time for quick research of a procedural point, basis for an objection or response to one while in the courtroom. An "answer book" is the ideal solution but only if it is full of easy-to-retrieve information that cuts to the chase for the issues most likely to arise.

To that end, this product now includes such an "answer book" – a separate Courtroom Compendium that is an abridged version of the Trial Lawyer's Guide to Post Grant Patent Proceedings. This Courtroom Compendium was created for quick retrieval and speedy response, with a tight table of contents and enhanced indexing. Taken in hand with one's experience, the Courtroom Compendium enhances a trial lawyer's performance, consistent with PTAB panel style and approach to the controlling law, while providing for quick, effective application of relevant rules and procedures.
