Essentially, he argued that the Supreme Court’s ruling contradicts the constitutional grant of a limited monopoly.

Chicago-Kent College of Law and Loyola University Chicago School of Law (where I previously served as an Adjunct Professor of Legal Writing) are jointly sponsoring and hosting the Chicago Intellectual Property Colloquium.
