Recent developments in patent law highlight significant court rulings and ongoing litigation challenges. The U.S. Supreme Court invalidated two Amgen patents, emphasizing the necessity for specific disclosures in claims of functional genus patents to ensure they are fully enabled for skilled practitioners. Meanwhile, a federal judge sanctioned Houston patent lawyer William Ramey for filing a 'frivolous' lawsuit against Volkswagen, ordering him and his client to pay $207,000 in legal fees, amid a history of similar sanctions. In Colorado, the state's high patent filing rate is celebrated, with the local Patent and Trademark Office marking a decade of outreach. Additionally, the Patent Trial and Appeal Board partially granted a motion by EP Family Corp. to amend its tabletop design patent while denying its request for a substitute claim. Lastly, a Texas court ruled several patents related to electronic object detection ineligible under patent eligibility standards, emphasizing the importance of clear and representative claims.
