Summary:

Provides background on patent law fundamentals and patent assertion entities. Describes how H.R. 9, the Innovation Act, and S. 632, the Support Technology and Research for Our Nation's Growth (STRONG) Patents Act of 2015, would change existing patent law to address perceived problems caused by entities that engage in patent litigation tactics that have been criticized as abusive or deceptive.
