Roundup of This Week’s Patent News: June 6 Edition

This week’s big news was that on Monday, the Supreme Court decided Nautilus v. Biosig and Limelight v. Akamai.  As it had previously three times this term, the Supreme Court unanimously reversed the Federal Circuit in both cases.  EFF has a post explaining both of the decisions.

Additionally, last Friday CCIA filed an amicus brief in Apple v. Samsung at the Federal Circuit.
