Deadline
to Register: April 8, 2018
The Computer and Technology Section Council
will meet at 11:30 AM, follow by lunch and the CLE at noon.
Patent protection for computer
software has been in a constant state of flux since the Supreme Court’s Alice
Corp. decision in 2014. This seminar will explain the current state of the law
on what software is patentable in the United States, and what
software is not. We will also consider the latest developments
in design patent coverage for software, taking some lessons from the Apple
v. Samsung litigation to learn how your clients can benefit from following Apple’s
aggressive strategy of design protection for computer software. In
addition, we will discuss the latest developments in copyright protection for
computer software, including the latest in VFX’s attempt to claim copyright ownership on
the output created by its motion-capture software.
