Courts - Still more on: Ruling now issued in "Cancer Patients Challenge the Patenting of a Gene" [Updated]
Updating this July 30th ILB entry, the July 29 Federal Circuit ruling in Association for Molecular Pathology v. Myriad Genetics Inc. is important for an number of reasons. Sheri Qualters of the National Law Journal has this story this morning. The WSJ Law Blog has this entry.
[Updated] A reader writes to point out that "The lead attorney for Myriad Genetics -- who conducted the oral argument -- is Greg Castanias, a 1990 Maurer grad." Sure enough, from the opinion: "GREGORY A. CASTANIAS, Jones Day, of Washington, DC, argued for defendants-appellants."
