![]() STOLLER EXPERT WITNESS CHICAGO-(AEIPR) SEPTEMBER 25, 2009 FRIDAY- LEO STOLLER THE NATIONS LEADING INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHT EXPERT WITNESS AND DIRECTOR OF THE AMERICANS FOR THE ENFORCEMENT OF INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS (AEIPR) is weighting into the United States Supreme Court's most important intellectual property case this term. The high court will decide a case is Medela AG v. Kinetic Concepts, Inc., and as Patently-O points out, the question is: "Whether a person accused of patent infringement has a right to independent judicial, as distinct from lay jury, determination of whether an asserted patent claim satisfies the ‘non-obvious subject matter' condition for patentability." The amicus brief (.pdf) was filed Wednesday by a Silicon Valley who's who of tech companies: Apple, Cisco, Google, Symantec and Yahoo and Microsoft. This is an important legal question, "who can decide wheither a patent is "obvious" a jury or judge? The moving parties in this case believe that only a "judge" is qualified to decide this important question. When retained an expert intellectual property witness like Leo Stoller can help the judge or jury decide whether a patent is obvious and should die or whether the patent is not obvious and shall live. In intellectual property cases which involve millions of dollars in potential damages a good expert can help decide the case in favor of the party that retains him. Stoller can be reached at 312-545-4554, Ldms4@hotmail.com 7115 W. North Ave Chicago, Illinois 60302. One fact for sure is for a party to go into intellectual property litigation without a expert witness will certainly lead to a huge damage award against that party. This is your new blog post.

Just curious, when is the last time someone hired you to testify as an expert witness other than one of your own personal cases? Jesse 09/29/2009 11:33pm
STOLLER WEIGHTS INTO or weighs? Obviously, anyone who doesn't proof their own work should never be allowed to testify as an expert on anything. Kane 09/30/2009 12:05am
