Farheena Rasheed has been appointed to serve as Acting Vice Chief Administrative Patent Judge at the Patent Trial and Appeal Board (PTAB) due to the board's leadership vacancies and recent retirements. This decision comes as the PTAB faces challenges following several resignations under a deferred resignation program initiated by President Trump. Rasheed's extensive background in intellectual property law and her previous role as chief litigator for the USPTO position her well to lead the PTAB through this transition, where her expertise will be vital.
The PTAB is shorthanded due to multiple vacancies and retirements, prompting Rasheed's move to provide necessary expertise in administrative law and AIA proceedings.
Farheena Rasheed's transition from Deputy General Counsel for Intellectual Property Law at the USPTO to Acting Vice Chief Administrative Patent Judge aims to stabilize the PTAB's leadership.
