Just when you think it’s safe to go on vacation…

The 109th Congress is winding down and activity on patent legislation has slowed significantly over the last several months. It seemed like a safe time to vacation….so I did. Senators Hatch and Leahy didn’t see it that way, though. The two introduced the Patent Reform Act of 2006 (S. 3818), the first true Senate patent reform bill in this session of Congress. I reviewed it quickly (while on the beach) and decided not to post any thing immediately. Why? Stay tuned….I’ll have a detailed post later today or tomorrow.
