We have substantial experience challenging and invalidating patents that impermissibly claim abstract ideas under Alice Corp. v. CLS Bank, including a successful case involving an e-commerce affiliate marketing patent that had been asserted against 23 different defendants who either settled or went out of business before our client was sued for infringement and invalidated the patent under Alice.
