Here is a report on recent news and commentary related to the Federal Circuit and its cases. Today’s report highlights:

• an article about an “appeal seeking to revive a patent covering [a] Parkinson’s disease drug Neupro”; and
• another article discussing how four law professors argue the “Supreme Court should weigh in on whether artificial intelligence systems can produce patentable inventions.”

Late yesterday and this morning, the Federal Circuit released one precedential and two nonprecedential opinions along with three nonprecedential orders. In the precedential opinion, the court affirmed a judgment of the Court of International Trade. In the nonprecedential opinions, the Federal Circuit affirmed a judgment of the Patent Trial and Appeal Board and affirmed-in-part and dismissed-in-part a judgment of the Court of Appeals for Veterans Claims. The three nonprecedential orders dismiss appeals. Here are the introductions to the opinions and links to the dismissals.
