Unified files amicus brief in OpenSky v. VLSI with Auto Alliance and US Made
On August 18, 2022, Unified filed an amicus brief in IPR2021-010641 — this administration's first Director-initiated review of issues — concerning how the PTAB should address sanctionable conduct in post-grant proceedings. The brief emphasizes the importance to the public interest of PTAB review of patents that more likely than not lack merit, and observes that this paramount goal should be considered, rather than undermined, by any Office response to misconduct. Unified was joined by the Alliance for Automotive Innovation and US-Made.
