Yesterday, US Inventor, Inc. (USI) filed an amicus brief in Island Intellectual Property LLC v. TD Ameritrade, Inc., urging the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit (CAFC) to reconsider its use of Rule 36 when affirming decisions. The underlying district court decision was issued in November 2022 by Judge Rodney Gilstrap, who adopted Magistrate Judge Roy Payne’s September 2022 Report and Recommendation and granted TD Ameritrade’s (TD) Motion for Summary Judgment on the patent infringement claim.
