The Supreme Court's decision not to hear any patent cases during its October 2024 term underscores the ongoing complexities and uncertainties surrounding patent law and its interpretation.
Among the denied cases, key issues included the applicability of printed publication grounds in IPRs, de novo review standards, and the implications of patent term adjustments on validity.
As the Supreme Court steps back from patent law controversies, the Federal Circuit must continue to navigate evolving interpretations of key provisions within the patent statute.
With only a limited number of cases pending, the Supreme Court's focus appears to be shifting away from patent-related matters, leaving the field to lower courts.
