Court

U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit 

Our Position

The Court should uphold the decision of the Eastern District of Virginia that an applicant seeking federal district court review of a determination by the Patent Trial and Appeal Board is not required by 35 U.S.C § 145 to pay attorneys’ fees to the Patent and Trademark Office as part of the “expenses” of that proceeding.
