784	Intellectual Property Litigat	3
Description of course 784 :	This course will cover intellectual property (IP) litigation , including litigation of patent, copyright, trademark, and trade secret cases. The course is not a trial practice course, but rather one in which students will study the strategy and practice of litigation IP cases. The course is designed for students who are interested in litigation, and does not require prior IP coursework. The course will step through litigation chronologically, covering pre-suit investigations, venue selection and jurisdiction, pleadings, discovery, issues regarding use of experts, pre-trial briefing, trial, post-trial briefing, and appeal. The course will place particular focus on contemporary, difficult, strategic issues that come up in intellectual property litigation. The course will involve extensive class interaction and discussion, and will involve the drafting of several litigation documents.
