On June 20, 2023, Unified Patents submitted its comments to the USPTO’s Advance Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (“ANPRM”) regarding proposed changes to PTAB practice. The proposed rules largely exceed the USPTO’s authority, contradict the America Invents Act, would harm the U.S. economy, and promote increased NPE litigation. The USPTO's ANPRM can be found here. A copy of Unified's submission can be found below.
