Amicus briefs
Software is not PubPat's main focus, but they have submitted amicus briefs the the US Supreme Court on the following cases related to software:[1]
- KSR v. Teleflex (2007, USA): PUBPAT_KSR_SCt_Brief.pdf (press release)
- EBay v. MercExchange (2006, USA): PUBPAT_eBay_SCt_Brief.pdf
- LabCorp v. Metabolite: PUBPAT_LabCorp_SCt_Brief.pdf (press release)
(They have also filed amicus briefs for CAFC cases[2] but none seem directly software related.)
