We’re only days into 2014, but it promises to be an exciting one in the realm of intellectual property. On a Gibbons’ IP Law Alert Blog post, Owen McKeon explains what’s on the IP tap for 2014.

The Supreme Court of the United States has “at least two noteworthy intellectual property cases slated for the new year,” McKeon said. One is about the patentability of a computer software program used in financial transactions, and the other will be a decision in MedImmune, Inc. v. Boston Scientific Corp., on whether it’s the licensee or patentee who bears the burden of proving products don’t infringe a patent. Another case about the district courts’ authority to award attorney fees to accused patent infringers will also be important.
