Fraud in the TTAB

Claims of fraud in the TTAB is a subject I have been following for a while. Unfortunately, longer than I have had this blog. However, the recent amicus brief from the AIPLA provides a great opportunity to christen this blog, and try to bring a little more awareness to this issue. It is clear that over the last couple years, the TTAB has lowered its standard for finding fraud by not requiring the necessary evidence for deceptive intent. Hopefully, the TTAB will be able to correct course. The amicus brief should certainly help.
