Rogan Leaving Patent Office With a Record of Reform

The U.S. Patent and Trademark Office will need a new director come Jan. 9 with the departure of James Rogan after a two-year stint. The buzz in the patent bar is that deputy director Jon Dudas, who will be acting director, is the front-runner to take over the presidentially appointed position. Rogan put "PTO reform on the Washington legislative agenda," says Herbert Wamsley, the Intellectual Property Owners Association's executive director. Rogan launched a five-year plan to improve patent quality.
