Immersion v. HTC
Jun 21, 2016OUTCOME: successful appeal
This case received Managing IP's Milestone Case award in 2017. Our team succeeded in convincing the Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit to reverse the district court and confirm the United States ... Patent and Trademark Office's practice of permitting continuation applications to claim priority to their parent application, even if filed on the same day that the parent issues as a patent. The decision preserved the priority dates of more than ten thousand issued patents.
