Steptoe patent litigation partner Vishal Gupta was quoted in a Bloomberg Law article titled "In Google Decision, Federal Circuit Widens Patent Challenge Lens." The article, published May 24, discusses how Google's recent Federal Circuit win on software patents could affect how corroborating evidence is viewed in the context of evaluating prior art disclosures.
Gupta says, "The Federal Circuit clarified that corroborating evidence doesn't need to be something like a notebook filled with dates regarding the invention’s development—other, simpler evidence can be enough."
