Especially with the increase in litigation involving computer implemented inventions, the issues of whether each infringing step or claim element must be performed by a single actor and who is responsible for use of an invention are becoming more relevant and important in patent infringement cases. The Federal Circuits en banc decision in the Akamai and McKesson cases should provide much needed guidance to intellectual property practitioners, companies and judges. Join Anthony F. Lo Cicero of Amster, Rothstein & Ebenstein LLP as he discusses the decision and its potential impact.
