PTO Director: 'Something Must Be Done' to Clarify Section 101

Scott Kamholz is quoted by The Recorder in an article regarding USPTO Director Andrei Iancu's ideas for reforming the patent system. “My sense is that [Iancu] is not focused on harmonizing outcomes at the PTAB and district court, but rather to give both the PTAB and district judges more basis to rely on each other’s claim constructions,” Kamholz says. “That will save duplicated effort and could help parties make less speculative decisions about initiating proceedings in either forum.”
