Copyright, Trademark and Advertising in New Media
Online and social media are increasingly popular with marketers who want to
take advantage of new technology, viral marketing and word of mouth exposure.
As these new marketing channels are exploited, new legal concerns arise both
from copyright and trademark perspectives. Indeed, online content aggregators
have aggravated copyright owners, and third parties have adopted others’
trademarks as usernames. The goal of the presentation is to provide attorneys
who are advising clients on social media and promotions thereon with the current
legal framework, new technologies to track unauthorized postings across the
Internet, and what the future may entail. This program will include demonstrations
of new technologies and discussion of their impact on copyright law, while also
considering the unauthorized use of trademarks on social media sites.

II. The Google Books Settlement: How Will It Change the Landscape?
Two panels will discuss the impact of the Google Books Settlement. The first
panel will review the mechanism in the settlement agreement which allows
universities to unlock their libraries of copyrighted works, many of which were
effectively unavailable to the general public prior to being scanned, and explore
how the settlement will likely affect universities in licensing special collections
and in-copyright works. The second panel will provide a general overview of
the Google Books settlement and the implications it is likely to have for authors,
publishers, Google and its competitors, libraries and other users, regardless of
whether it is ultimately approved.

I. Hot Topics in Foreign Patent Procurement and Enforcement
It can be difficult for patent attorneys to remain abreast of changes in important
foreign jurisdictions. However, being informed can ensure that patent procurement
strategy is tailored to maximize the protection afforded by a patent portfolio. A panel
of speakers from Europe, China, Australia and the Office of the PCT will provide a
valuable update on potential pitfalls and dangers during prosecution, such as the
scope and effect of amendments and restrictions on filing divisional applications.
This program is essential for U.S. patent attorneys managing foreign portfolios.

II. Of Courts & Copyists: The Most Recent Developments
in the World of Copyright Law
Join Kate Spelman and Mike Keyes on a tour through recent copyright case law
and changes. Topics will include updates on Dastar preemption, DMCA, fair use,
damages, perpetual possession/first sale doctrine and other important copyright
issues with a focus on practice tips for you in assisting your clients.
Speakers: J. Michael Keyes, K&L Gates, Spokane, WA
Katherine Spelman, Cobalt LLP, Berkeley, CA
III. Biosimilars 2010
Biosimilars are of tremendous interest globally. It has been predicted that in the
near future biologic therapies will amount to more than 50% of newly approved
medicines. In the same period, a substantial number of patent protected
biotechnology-based therapies will come off patent, enabling the marketing
of biosimilar or follow on biologic products. Even though opportunities abound,
biosimilar producers and patients face substantial risks, requiring producers
to develop innovative legal strategies and to carefully assess research and
development and production processes to guarantee safety and efficacy of
biosimilar products to establish an efficient and safe strategy for biosimilar
approval. This discussion will explore the issues and solutions to problems
encountered in biosimilar regulation in the U.S. and abroad.

I. Best Practices for Selecting, Retaining and Working with
Experts in Patent Cases
This panel will discuss the importance of having good experts in a patent case;
suggestions for how to find and select the best expert for your particular case
or court, including considering issues of gender and race; the role of consulting
experts in a patent case and when/how to retain them; and the mechanics of
expert retention. The panel will also give advice on how to work most effectively
with experts in patent cases, as well as how to aid your expert in most effectively
presenting her or his testimony to the fact-finder. In this regard, the panel will
specifically discuss what role, if any, the gender and/or race of the expert plays in
the fact-finder’s perception of experts in patent cases.

Thursday’s tour begins at the Supreme Court, our nation’s highest court. Although
146 years old, the Supreme Court was not housed in its own building until 1935.
A court employee will guide you through the great bronze doors and into the
beautifully appointed Great Hall and Court Chamber, while relaying the history
of famous cases and facts on current justices. The tour will then proceed across
the street to the Library of Congress, where attendees will have access to rare
cultural treasures through interactive exhibits. A guide will explain the history and
purpose of the building, and lead the group to the mezzanine viewing area above
the main reading room. Lunch will take place at the James Beard Award Winner for Best New Restaurant
2008, Central. This contemporary French-American bistro will be a perfect ending to a day visiting two of our
nation’s most prestigious landmarks. (Tickets required - $85 each; transportation provided)

III. The DMCA Revisited: Analyzing the First 12 Years of Case Law
Under the Statute and its Application to UGC Sites
The service provider liability limitations of the DMCA have been the subject of
multiple lawsuits against user generated content sites. In the past year there have
been 3 significant decisions holding service providers not liable for user generated
content and a fourth case is set for decision in 2010. This program will analyze the
DMCA 12 years after its passage with an eye towards identifying those aspects
of the law that work well and those aspects of current technology that are not
well covered by the DMCA. The program also will focus on those things copyright
owners can do to maximize protection online and ways service providers can
reduce their liability. In addition, the program will trace the development and likely
future path of case law construing the DMCA, including potential circuit splits.

I. Litigating Validity: Obviousness and Collateral Challenges
Following the Supreme Court’s decision in KSR, many were of the view that
the standard for obviousness had changed so dramatically that very few patents
would survive a validity challenge on this basis. By the same token, following
the USPTO’s amendment to the reexamination statute to include inter partes
reexaminations, many believed that they had their first real weapon to collaterally
challenge the validity of a patent. The panel will discuss litigating validity
post-KSR and the pros and cons of using reexamination to collaterally attack
a patent’s validity.
Moderator: Paul Morico, Baker Botts, Houston, TX
Speakers: Paul Bondor, Kirkland & Ellis LLP, New York, NY (invited)
David Lender, Weil Gotshal & Manges, New York, NY
Amy Wigmore, WilmerHale, Washington, D.C.
II. Insurance Challenges: What Every Intellectual Property Lawyer
Should Know About Legal Malpractice Insurance, Litigation,
Sanctions, and Ethical Violations
Most lawyers are aware they should implement best practices for risk
management. Even so, many IP practitioners lack malpractice insurance,
have inadequate malpractice insurance, or do not precisely understand when
malpractice insurance exclusions apply, notwithstanding ethical requirements
in all states with regard to insurance. IP lawyers who are sanctioned in litigation
become likely targets for malpractice claims. Our expert panel will speculate
about this and other potentially catastrophic scenarios, explain what coverage IP
lawyers need and how to get it, and clarify what behaviors, including crimes and
trigger exclusions. We will specifically educate lawyers about the possibility of
multi-state and USPTO Office of Enrollment and Discipline ethics violations and
educate lawyers about loss prevention.

III. The Use of Opinion of Counsel as Evidence in Patent Litigation
Until recently, accused patent infringers had an affirmative duty of care to
determine whether they were infringing a patent and to obtain opinion of counsel.
This affirmative duty was eliminated by the Federal Circuit in Seagate. But recently,
in Broadcom v. Qualcomm, the Federal Circuit stated that a jury could consider
whether the defendant obtained the advice of counsel as evidence of intent as to
induced infringement. The program will explore these issues in detail.

I. Navigating Inter Partes Reexamination
Reexamination, particularly inter partes reexamination, has become a hot topic
on account of the rapidly rising number of requests for reexamination filed in
the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office. This program will explore the issues
and challenges presented by inter partes reexamination proceedings from
the perspective of USPTO officials charged with making the system work and
from the perspective of practitioners. Among the topics to be discussed are
substantive issues, procedures and pendency, both under current law and under
the proposed patent reform legislation. Included will be a Q & A session with our
panel of speakers.

porcelain. The formal gardens and beautiful woodland areas will complete your
day’s getaway from urban life. Following the tour of the Hillwood Estate, lunch will be served
in Georgetown at the restaurant 1789, named for the year Georgetown University was founded.
1789 features traditional American fare in a charming townhouse setting that harkens back to
“old Washington.” (Tickets required - $95 each; transportation provided)

III. Getting Out of the Hot Seat: Mediation and Other Mechanisms for
Early Termination of Section 337 Investigations
A substantial percentage of Section 337 Investigations are terminated early by
the participating entities. This program will discuss the various mechanisms
companies have used, and/or may use in the future, for early termination of
Section 337 Investigations. The potential methods for early termination include
utilization of the ITC’s Mediation Program, which was introduced in 2008, and
other alternative dispute resolution methods. Further, the statute and regulations
provide for early termination of Section 337 investigations through Settlement
Agreements or Consent Orders. This program will discuss the intricacies, benefits,
and differences of these various early termination mechanisms, including lessons
learned with respect to contents of motions/stipulations, terms of agreements and
orders, and enforcement implications.

I. The Future of Distribution of Entertainment Content
The distribution of content is an essential aspect of the entertainment business.
The incredible advance in technologies in the Internet and other more convenient
and individualized means of distributing entertainment content to consumers
present many challenges to IP practitioners, especially where the law has not
caught up with such technologies. This panel will discuss and explain these new
types of technologies available for entertainment content and their impact from
various business and legal standpoints. Attendees will learn about the latest
trends and business thinking regarding these methods of distribution – as they
fast become the new standard of business in this field.
Co-sponsored by
the ABA Forum on the Entertainment and Sports Industries
Speakers: Gary R. Greenstein, Wilson Sonsini Goodrich & Rosati, Washington, D.C.
Other speakers TBD
II. The Net Neutrality Debate: An IP Perspective
Spurred by President Obama’s campaign promise to preserve “net neutrality,”
debates are ongoing in Congress and before the Federal Trade Commission over
whether regulations are necessary to protect the Internet, and if so what form
those regulations should take. Join our team of experts as they share various
perspectives on the issues, and learn how intellectual property concerns factor
into the debate.
Moderator: Howard P. Walthall, Jr., Burr & Forman LLP, Birmingham, AL
Speakers: Chris Castle, Christian L. Castle, Attorneys, Los Angeles &
San Francisco, CA
Markham Erickson, Holch & Erickson LLP, Washington, D.C.

Randy Milch, General Counsel, Verizon Communications, Basking Ridge, NJ
III. Patent and Trademark Prosecution Ethics:
Shifting Sands or New Directions? (Ethics credit available)
Inequitable conduct has been described as a plague on the patent system. In
recent opinions, the Federal Circuit may be seen as attempting to give guidance
but the arrows all point in different directions. This year, in In re Bose, the Federal
Circuit held that “a trademark is obtained fraudulently...if the applicant or registrant
knowingly makes a false, material representation with the intent to deceive the
USPTO.” This decision overturned the Medinol “should have known” test for fraud.
Bose is already being discussed for its implication in patent law. For patents, other
issues such as the standards for materiality of information and intent to deceive
the USPTO are also unsettled. This panel will address the need to sort out recent
decisions, consider unanswered questions for both patent and trademark practice
and provide advice on avoiding fraud allegations.

Friday, April 9 [continued]
3:30 – 5:00 pm FOUR CONCURRENT SES SIONS
I. IP Issues in Entertainment Industry Transactions
IP issues are an integral part of most entertainment industry transactions.
This panel will discuss the common IP issues that affect entertainment industry
transactions, with a particular emphasis on agreements for the creation and
licensing of content and mergers and acquisitions in the entertainment area,
including IP due diligence. Issues relating to different areas of the entertainment
industry, including music, film, television and literary publishing will also be
addressed.
Co-sponsored by
the ABA Forum on the Entertainment and Sports Industries
Speakers: Kenneth M. Kaufman, Manatt, Phelps & Phillips, LLP, Washington, D.C.
Kirk T. Schroder, Schroder, Fidlow & Titley, PLC, Richmond, VA
II. Patent Licensing for Standards: How the Deal is Done
Patent holders that participate in standards setting activities often commit to
offer patent licenses under patent rights that are essential to the standard being
developed on reasonable and non-discriminatory (RAND) terms and conditions.
Such RAND terms and conditions are increasingly the focus of lawsuits,
government agency enforcement actions, proposed regulations and legislation
worldwide. The proposed program will discuss how such licenses are actually
negotiated and structured between patentees and licensees. Specifically the
panel will describe the inclusion of such patent licenses in broader portfolio
licenses, cross-licenses and other technology and services agreements. The
panel will explore the unique trade offs specific patentees and licensees may
make among various interdependent terms and conditions often included in such
agreements.

III. Anatomy of an Infringement Claim: Analyzing and Responding
to a Letter Asserting Trademark or Patent Infringement
Rather than as a lecture-style program, this session will be conducted as an
interactive workshop. The group will formulate a strategy for advising a client and
responding to claims of trademark and patent infringement, based on an evolving
fact pattern. The trademark infringement claim concerns a conflict between
a federal registration and common law rights in trademarks and trade names,
and the territoriality of marks, while the patent problem concerns infringement
of claims directed to a software package. The session will explore substantive
and procedural issues including defenses, litigation strategies, and ethical issues
as they arise. It will also examine certain aspects of a claim from the claimant’s
perspective. Everyone’s participation will be encouraged.
Speaker: Joel Miller, West Orange, NJ
IV. Patent Practice Perspectives: Addressing Client
and Subject Matter Conflicts (Ethics credit available)
In addition to the “normal” client conflict issues, firms with patent practices,
particularly those with patent prosecution practices, must also navigate subject
matter conflicts. Subject matter conflicts are those relating to the invention’s area
of technology. The question then is how to assess and address these two types
of conflicts. This panel discussion will look at the issues raised by both client
conflicts and consider policies and procedures to address them.
Moderator: Jeffrey A. Lindeman, J.A. Lindeman & Co. PLLC, McLean, VA
