On October 15, 2020, West Virginia University College of Law Professor Sean Tu spoke on a panel titled "Myths of Litigated Patents" hosted by IPWatchdog and LexisNexis IP. The panelists discussed which types of examiners tend to issue patents that later undergo litigation, the issues at stake during prosecution for different types of examiners and how this knowledge can impact a prosecution process.
