Federal Circuit Reverses US$200M+ Jury Verdicts Because Asserted Claims Are Unpatentable Under § 101

According to 35 U.S.C. § 101, “any new and useful process, machine, manufacture, or composition of matter, or any new and useful improvement thereof” may be patentable. Courts and litigants often struggle in determining what falls outside this scope—i.e., what is unpatentable subject matter. The Federal Circuit Court of Appeals dealt with this issue in a series of appeals between USAA v. PNC Bank (CAFC Nos. 2023-1639, 2023-1778, 2023-1866, 2025-1276, 2025-1277, and 2025-1341), held that the claims in the patents at issue recite unpatentable subject matter, and reversed the entries of judgment for the US$218M and US$4.3M jury verdicts that issued out of the Eastern District of Texas.

What Is Outsourced Technology Law?

States and the federal government have addressed the various areas of outsourced technology law, which deals with the outsourcing of information technology tasks. Though some states have outsourcing regulations, U.S. federal law does not specifically guide outsourcing transactions. However, outsourced activities must still meet any regulatory requirements of the government, whether the outsourced technology services are in the U.S. or overseas. The Federal Trade Commission states that U.S. companies who use outsourcing vendors are still legally responsible for the business performed by the outsourced firm. For example, banks are responsible for data security, whether that information is in their hands or being stored by an outside company, locally or overseas....Read more
