Corey Beaubien and Scott Hogan co-authored an article “Making Sense of Non(ce)sense—Seeking Broad Claim Coverage and Avoiding Unwanted Means-Plus-Function Treatment.” Bloomberg BNA’s Patent, Trademark & Copyright Journal published the article in May. The article looks at two recent Federal Circuit decisions concerning means-plus-function treatment when a claim lacks the traditional means-for phrasing. Shortly after the publication, Beaubien and Hogan provided commentary about software means-plus-function limitations in a news article in BNA’s Journal covering the Federal Circuit case Eon Corp. IP Holding LLC v. AT&T Mobility LLC.
