On December 15, 2014, the USPTO issued a new comprehensive Interim Guidance document for examination of subject matter eligibility under 35 U.S.C. § 101.

In this webinar, Salvador M. Bezos and Michelle K. Holoubek address the USPTO guidelines through the lens of software patents. Some of the topics covered include:

• The PTO guidelines in light of recent decisions, which show a path forward for software claims.
• Strategies for responding to Office Actions in view of the PTO guidelines.
• Approaches for application drafting that provide ammunition against 101 challenges.
