In view of the U.S. approval process for biosimilars, companies are gearing up to either produce their own biosimilar products, or to defend against their entry onto the market. While the Biologics Price Competition and Innovation Act (BPCIA) spells out many of the requirements, the pathway for approval is complicated. Our panel of experts discuss the features of the BPCIA and how it operates for both approved biologics as well as biosimilar entrants. They also make some predictions on its impact for life science companies.
The webinar is 60 minutes, complete with Q&A.

Provisional Patent Applications,The Good, The Bad, and the UglyKevin E. Flynn
United States Provisional Patent Applications offer an alternative to starting with a non-provisional utility application. To use this tool appropriately, one must know what has to be in the provisional application, what informalities are tolerable, and how the provisional application fits into the patent process.
The second breakout session was directed to attendees in the information technology (IT) and biotechnology sectors, with discussion about the recent Alice v. CLS Bank Supreme Court decision.
Our panel discussed the state of software patent eligibility after Alice Corp v. CLS Bank International in a recent webinar.
Since the Supreme Court's decision last year in Alice v. CLS Bank, business method and software-based patents have been invalidated at an alarming pace. The basis for invalidation has been "ineligible" subject matter under 35 USC § 101, despite the fact that the Supreme Court clearly stated that such software inventions were not per se unpatentable. This phenomenon has resulted in an "analysis paralysis" in the PTO which has brought new business method and software-based patent issuance to a virtual standstill. Recently, however, Knobbe Martens software prosecution teams have found success in overcoming § 101 rejections by PTO examiners.
Topics include:
- Aligning patent filing strategies with the company’s business goals
- Understanding the importance of the initial disclosure
- Analyzing PTO methods and processes in classifying and assigning applications for examination
- Preparing the application to focus on technical innovations and not business methods
- Developing claim strategies that satisfy § 101
- Interviewing and expediting prosecution to overcome § 101 rejections and push to issuance
- Using issued software patents to further short and long term competitive strategies
The presentation discusses different techniques for using US Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) invalidity proceedings to invalidate issued patents. The presentation specifically discusses the new procedures available under the America Invents Act (AIA). Topics include Post-Grant Review (PGR) and Inter Partes Review (IPR) and cover business method review (CBM) programs. Deadlines as well as specific scheduling orders for these programs are discussed as well as how best to use the new programs at the USPTO.

WINDING UP of COMPANY, Modes of DissolutionKHURRAMWALI
Winding up, also known as liquidation, refers to the legal and financial process of dissolving a company. It involves ceasing operations, selling assets, settling debts, and ultimately removing the company from the official business registry.
Here's a breakdown of the key aspects of winding up:
Reasons for Winding Up:
Insolvency: This is the most common reason, where the company cannot pay its debts. Creditors may initiate a compulsory winding up to recover their dues.
Voluntary Closure: The owners may decide to close the company due to reasons like reaching business goals, facing losses, or merging with another company.
Deadlock: If shareholders or directors cannot agree on how to run the company, a court may order a winding up.
Types of Winding Up:
Voluntary Winding Up: This is initiated by the company's shareholders through a resolution passed by a majority vote. There are two main types:
Members' Voluntary Winding Up: The company is solvent (has enough assets to pay off its debts) and shareholders will receive any remaining assets after debts are settled.
Creditors' Voluntary Winding Up: The company is insolvent and creditors will be prioritized in receiving payment from the sale of assets.
Compulsory Winding Up: This is initiated by a court order, typically at the request of creditors, government agencies, or even by the company itself if it's insolvent.
Process of Winding Up:
Appointment of Liquidator: A qualified professional is appointed to oversee the winding-up process. They are responsible for selling assets, paying off debts, and distributing any remaining funds.
Cease Trading: The company stops its regular business operations.
Notification of Creditors: Creditors are informed about the winding up and invited to submit their claims.
Sale of Assets: The company's assets are sold to generate cash to pay off creditors.
Payment of Debts: Creditors are paid according to a set order of priority, with secured creditors receiving payment before unsecured creditors.
Distribution to Shareholders: If there are any remaining funds after all debts are settled, they are distributed to shareholders according to their ownership stake.
Dissolution: Once all claims are settled and distributions made, the company is officially dissolved and removed from the business register.
Impact of Winding Up:
Employees: Employees will likely lose their jobs during the winding-up process.
Creditors: Creditors may not recover their debts in full, especially if the company is insolvent.
Shareholders: Shareholders may not receive any payout if the company's debts exceed its assets.
Winding up is a complex legal and financial process that can have significant consequences for all parties involved. It's important to seek professional legal and financial advice when considering winding up a company.
In 2020, the Ministry of Home Affairs established a committee led by Prof. (Dr.) Ranbir Singh, former Vice Chancellor of National Law University (NLU), Delhi. This committee was tasked with reviewing the three codes of criminal law. The primary objective of the committee was to propose comprehensive reforms to the country’s criminal laws in a manner that is both principled and effective.
The committee’s focus was on ensuring the safety and security of individuals, communities, and the nation as a whole. Throughout its deliberations, the committee aimed to uphold constitutional values such as justice, dignity, and the intrinsic value of each individual. Their goal was to recommend amendments to the criminal laws that align with these values and priorities.
Subsequently, in February, the committee successfully submitted its recommendations regarding amendments to the criminal law. These recommendations are intended to serve as a foundation for enhancing the current legal framework, promoting safety and security, and upholding the constitutional principles of justice, dignity, and the inherent worth of every individual.
