Eminent Domain and the Border Wall: Political and Legal Perspectives
Recorded: Thursday, November 8, 2018Although the border between the United States and Mexico stretches almost 2,000 miles and is one of the most frequently traversed borders in the world, most of the United Sates/Mexico border had no significant, lengthy physical impediment to crossing until the early 2000s.
In this Webinar, we will discuss the Secure Fence Act of 2006, which spurred the coordinated construction of roughly 600 miles of physical border barriers, and the related REAL ID Act that allows the Secretary of Homeland Security to waive many of the federal environmental statutes that are ordinarily required with any other major federal project.
The webinar will also discuss the practical, logistical, and legal challenges of condemning private property for the construction of border barrier structures and what to expect as the current Presidential administration moves forward with the construction of additional border barriers on the United States/Mexico border.
Lastly, for those particularly interested in public law and intergovernmental partnerships, we will discuss an example of legal issues implicated by local/federal cooperation in the construction of the border barriers following the Secure Fence Act of 2006 that lead to the filing of inverse condemnation claims.

TC Heartland Anniversary Edition - Recent Developments and Practical Implications of Evolving Patent Venue Law
Recorded Wednesday, May 23, 2018In May 2017, the Supreme Court issued its decision in TC Heartland LLC v. Kraft Food Group Brands LLC, which reshaped the patent venue law regarding where patent cases can be brought. The Supreme Court clarified that the patent venue statute, 28 U.S.C. § 1400(b), exclusively controls for determining venue for patent infringement suits and held that a corporation “resides” in its state of incorporation. Since then the lower courts, practitioners, and businesses have wrestled with the full implications of that ruling. Now, as we near the one-year anniversary of the TC Heartland decision, we examine how the Federal Circuit and the district courts have interpreted that decision, clarifying the patent venue law on certain issues while leaving other questions still unanswered. Notably, the lower courts have addressed the meaning of “regular and established place of business” under § 1400(b), and whether the Supreme Court’s decision amounts to an intervening change in law for the purposes of determining waiver for challenging venue.
The presenters will discuss the impact that the Supreme Court’s decision has had on filing of new patent cases and the surge in the motions for transfer. Finally, we will discuss best practices for litigants in navigating the patent venue law based on the guidance provided by the courts and keeping in mind the questions that remain open.CLE credit is not available for on-demand webinars.
