Federal Circuit Patent Decisions In 2024: An Empirical Review
This eighth annual article provides a statistical review of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit's decisions in patent cases during calendar year 2024.[1]
The Federal Circuit issued fewer patent decisions in 2024 despite its ever-increasing backlog of argument-ready cases. U.S. Patent Trial and Appeal Board cases still predominated, but to a lesser degree as the bubble of Arthrex remands dissipated and the post-COVID-19 renaissance of district court cases worked its way through the system.
