Dyk of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit) the Chapter on Patents in the leading treatise BUSINESS AND COMMERCIAL LITIGATION IN FEDERAL COURTS (now in its third edition). For the past three years, Professor Ernst and Judge Dyk have completed an annual supplement to their section of the treatise. The 2014-2015 Supplement has just been published. The supplement provides a complete update to developments in the patent law occurring in the last year and recommends litigation strategies in light of these developments. Among other things, the Chapter 86 Supplement adds a discussion of the America Invests Act, the first major patent law bill since the Patent Act of 1952. The Supplement also covers the Supreme Court&#x2019;s recent major decisions in such areas as patent eligible subject matter, enhanced damages, and subject matter jurisdiction in patent related cases; and provides complete coverage of major developments in the Federal Circuit.
