Welcome to Skilled in the Art. I’m Law.com IP reporter Scott Graham. Like a lot of you I spent the first few months of this year anticipating the Supreme Court’s decision in Oil States. It was big news when the court upheld the constitutionality of IPRs six weeks ago. But to hear one Federal Circuit judge tell it Monday, parts of the decision may already be passé. I’ll explain below. I’ve also got news of a failed attempt to disqualify attorneys representing Twitter in a trademark case, and two significant lateral moves. As always you can email metips and feedback and follow me on Twitter.
