Washington, D.C. – On Thursday, July 13, 2017 at 10:00 a.m., the Courts, Intellectual Property, and the Internet Subcommittee will hold a hearing on the impact of bad patents on American businesses. The America Invents Act (AIA) has helped to weed out many of the worst of the worst in terms of bad patents. However, many patents of questionable merit remain. The abuse of our litigation system by patent trolls using bad patents needs to end.
