The United States Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit is popularly considered the most important technology law court in the country. As the only court that hears appeals in federal patent cases aside from the Supreme Court, they set nationwide standards on the scope and contours of patent law, along with many other issues of national significance. As part of a tour of Boston-area law schools, the Federal Circuit will be holding oral arguments in four cases at Harvard Law School's historic Ames Courtroom. Attendees can watch experienced oral advocates debate actual cases on a variety of legal issues.
