Robert Sachs - The Day the Exception Swallowed the Rule: Is Any Software Patent Eligible After Ultramercial III?

In The Day the Exception Swallowed the Rule: Is Any Software Patent Eligible After Ultramercial III? Robert Sachs argues that the Federal Circuit misinterpreted the US Supreme Court's Alice v. CLS Bank decision on patent eligibility under 35 USC 101.

It is encouraging to read a patent attorney eloquently point out the flaws in the Federal Circuit's decision rather than concede, but these type of arguments must be presented before the Federal Circuit not just posted in a blog to change its understanding of software patent eligibility.
