Mercedes Meyer will be a featured speaker on the panel Continuation, Obvious-Type Double Patenting, and Terminal Disclaimers at the 2024 C-IP2 Annual Fall Conference. The panel will take place on Friday, October 18, and address critical changes in patent law, including the USPTO’s recent proposal to revise terminal disclaimer practices and the implications of the Federal Circuit’s decision in In re Cellect.
These developments have introduced new challenges for the use of continuations, a long-standing practice in patent prosecution, particularly in the life sciences. Meyer, alongside her co-panelists, will discuss the significance of continuations, the issue of obvious-type double patenting, and how recent legal shifts may impact patent prosecution strategies.
