Cheryl T. Burgess
Joseph S. Cianfrani
This week's show considers significant rulings in the area of Second Amendment jurisprudence and patent law, and also features valuable oral argument guidance. First, Erwin Chemerinsky, Dean of the UC Irvine School of Law, weighs in on last Thursday's en banc result from the Ninth Circuit in 'Peruta v. County of San Diego,' which upheld a California restriction on concealed carry permits. Mr. Chemerinsky explains why the en banc panel, which ruled differently than the three-judge panel previously, got it right this time. Next, two guests from Knobbe Martens, Cheryl Burgess and Joe Cianfrani, examine a U.S. Supreme Court ruling regarding enhanced damages in patent suits. That ruling knocked out a two-step test, christened just 9 years ago in 'In re Seagate,' and our guests will discuss how such damages will be awarded going forward. Finally, Myron Moskovitz, of the Moskovitz Appellate Team, offers his insights on the art of oral argument, gleaned from a long and successful career as an appellate attorney.
