Washington State Patent Law Association Files Amicus Brief in Bilski

On April 4, 2008 the Washington State Patent Law Association (WSPLA) filed an amicus brief in support of Petitioner Bernard L Bilksi and Rand A Warsaw in the case currently under en banc consideration by the CAFC, In re Bilksi. My earlier posts on this case can be found here and here.

WSPLA's brief was signed by Michael Swope over at Woodcock Washburn. Also on the brief were Grzegorz S Plichta (Woodcock Washburn), Dale Bar, President of WSPLA and lawyer at Lee and Hayes, and Peter J Knudsen, IP counsel for Nastech Pharmaceutical Co., Inc.

Dennis Crouch over at Patently O, has a good summary of all Amicus Briefs filed in the case.
