Judge Lynn Invalidates BASCOM’s Patent Under Alice

On May 15, 2015, Judge Lynn issued an extensive Order (available here) finding that BASCOM’s patent asserted against AT&T was invalid for claiming unpatentable subject matter under 35 U.S.C. § 101 and the Supreme Court’s recent Alice opinion (which I discussed here). Accordingly, Judge Lynn granted AT&T’s Rule 12(b)(6) motion to dismiss.
