The United States International Trade Commission (ITC) is an increasingly popular venue for patent infringement litigation. More and more companies are seeking to halt importations of infringing products into the United States by turning to the ITC for expedited relief. Section 337 investigations conducted by the ITC provide complainants with a “fast track” to remedy IP matters that typically go to trial within 10 months. Since many Section 337 cases go to trial, selecting an ITC litigation team with a command of the technology, patent law, and specialized procedural practice is extremely important. We have handled more than 100 cases before the ITC.

With the signing of the budget and tax bill—also known as the “One Big Beautiful Bill Act”—by President Trump on July 4, 2025, the federal government has decided that it will not attempt to preempt various state efforts to regulate the use of artificial intelligence (AI) technologies. While prior versions of the budget and tax bill (the Budget Bill) contained a purported moratorium on enforcement of existing state laws or regulations on various AI technologies or the future promulgation of new state AI laws, the final version did not contain that provision. This development is particularly relevant for healthcare and life sciences entities that employ AI technologies in product development or in the delivery of clinical care in states that have enacted regulations on AI use.

The Nasdaq is an electronic marketplace for buying and selling securities. Its name was originally an acronym for the “National Association of Securities Dealers Automated Quotations”. Nasdaq started as part of the National Association of Securities Dealers (NASD), now known as the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA). Nasdaq was created after the Securities and Exchange Commission encouraged NASD to create an automated market for securities not listed on an exchange. The result was the first electronic trading system. Nasdaq opened in 1971 as the first electronic trading system. Nasdaq began to operate as a national securities exchange in 2006.
Law Glossary
TCPA is the abbreviation for the Telephone Consumer Protection Act of 1991. The law restricts telemarketing certain phone calls, text messages, and facsimiles. It also places restrictions on the use of automatic dialing systems and artificial or prerecorded voice messages. Collections’ actions by phone are also regulated under the act. Consumers may file complaints with Federal Communications Commission (FCC) when TCPA is violated. Since TCPA law governs consumer rights, lawsuits may also be filed by consumers who suffer violations.
