In this episode of the Litigation Quality Patents® Podcast, we take a look at baseless patent lawsuits. We specifically examine how much protection the Patent Fee Shifting Statute provides to innocent businesses who are dragged into lawsuits even though the owner knows the suit is baseless.

Joining the discussion is Michael Heinrich, a patent attorney practicing in the Minneapolis area.

In this episode of the Litigation Quality Patents® Podcast, we find out if you can validate a claim without a claim chart. Inexplicably, this is what Motorola tried to do.

Also, Microsoft shows how to use different components of a product to satisfy the Domestic Industry Requirement at the International Trade Commission.
