Federal Circuit Finds No Due Process Violation in Patent Ownership Dispute
The Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit (CAFC) issued two precedential decisions involving appeals from U.S. federal agency determinations on the patent rights of Causam Enterprises.
The cases concern U.S. patent 10394268, "Method and Apparatus for Actively Managing Consumption of Electric Power Over an Electric Power Grid."
The Federal Circuit… ruled that such a due process violation could only be asserted by whoever claimed to be the true [patent owner].
The Federal Circuit affirmed the invalidation of Causam’s patent rights and mooted further infringement proceedings, finding that inconsistent positions on patent ownership taken by respondent ecobee did not present a constitutional due process issue.
- The appeals were from the Patent Trial and Appeal Board (PTAB) and the U.S. International Trade Commission (ITC).
