Sterne Kessler Directors Paul Ainsworth, Jennifer Chagnon, and Jason Fitzsimmons presented the next installment of our series, “Navigating the New PTAB Playing Field.” The April 2026 program explored:

  • How recent PTAB developments are shaping litigation strategy, including a discussion on impacts to district court and ITC proceedings
  • Trends and updates on the Director institution process
  • A review of the latest precedential, informative, and significant Director Review decisions and evolving PTAB precedent

Designed for in-house counsel and corporate executives, these sessions provided timely updates on the latest developments at the PTAB, including key statistics, recent trends, and strategic insights on discretionary denial decisions.
